‘Jinkee’ Pacquiao More than just the wife of Pacman

Maria Geraldine Jamora aka ‘Jinkee’ was just a regular beauty cosmetic consultant, when she caught the eye of boxing champion Manny Pacquiao 11 years ago. “This is where our relationship started, we were 20 years old” she stated to Marv Dumon-Examiner. Jinkee is very shy until she gets to know people, but is very warm and protecting of her family. These values are the reason Manny trusted her so much, to make her his wife. In May of 2000, the young couple got married, so smitten with one another. The passion was so great they got a civil marriage, then the following year they had a nice ceremony in the church.

She always went to manny’s fights but was never mentioned because she didn’t like the attention.”there was no big group of people when we first came to San Antonio, it was the trainers, the manager and me. I was the only female.” After 11 years the couple have four children, Emmanuel Jr. “Jimuel”, Michael, Mary Grace “Princess”, and Queen Elizabeth “Queenie” being away from the kids is very hard on a mother, but it’s also hard on the father as well. “Manny calls them everyday, we both do to them, we love them very much.”
