Valerie Weigmann is Derek Ramsay’s new love interest on ‘Kidlat’

Things are heating up on “Kidlat”.
TV’s most popular primetime superhero (Derek Ramsay) may have lost his first love Lara (Nadine Samonte) to her current comatose state but just when Joey (Ritz Azul) is beginning to warm up to his alter ego, Voltaire, in comes another mysterious woman who is dead set on coming between Kidlat and his current object of affection.
That mystery woman is Natasha, a sassy and sophisticated fashion designer from South Africa who will be later revealed as the villainess Enigma.

Played by 21-year old Filipino-German “Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition” alumna Valerie Weigmann, the witchcraft-practicing Enigma is the latest evil character to join Kidlat’s increasing rogues gallery.
Though a little nervous to be part of a successful series, Valerie admits that she’s more than excited to meet everyone—particularly her new leading man.
“Excited at kahit paano kinabahan din ako. I’ve heard so many good things about Derek, like how he’s a gentleman. And it’s true, napakabait n’ya at very supportive to everyone. He’s easy to work with and we also got a chance to talk on the set kasi he has also been to Germany,” Valerie said during the press conference that introduced Enigma and the other new villains of the series, namely Warla (Paolo Ballesteros), Frosta (Shaira Mae) and Fuego (Mark Neumann).

Derek Ramsay has no plans for V-Day, but may go out with Nadine Samonte

Believe it or not, Derek Ramsay has not decided on any plans for Valentine’s Day.
Given that he has not yet posted anything on his Twitter account, it seems like the country’s most eligible bachelor is without a date for this very special day.
“The last time I went out with a date on Valentine’s Day was with my ex,” Derek told Interaksyon during the recent launch of Dunkin’ Donuts Valentine’s campaign where the “Kidlat” actor is a brand endorser. The ex he is referring to is of course, Angelica Panganiban, who is now in a relationship with John Lloyd Cruz.
“As far as plans for Valentine’s is concerned, mine is to mainly help Dunkin’ Donuts promote its special Valentine’s offerings, especially their Dunkin’ Hearts and Premium Donuts Valentine box. As for myself, I don’t usually make plans although it might be possible that I might get together with friends who are also single like me on the 14th.”
So what about the two particular names that are currently being linked to him, namely Cristine Reyes and Nadine Samonte?
“Cristine is a good friend and she will continue to be a friend even with all the intrigues around us. We hang out a lot and I took her out to lunch the day before her birthday,” he revealed. “But I don’t see myself going out with her alone on Valentine’s Day. Unless if it’s a group thing it might be possible.
