Jinkee Pacquiao is five months on the way, and the husband, boxing icon Manny Pacquiao, is just as excited.
Jinkee said she is five months pregnant, and is scheduled to deliver their fourth child by January or a month after her husband?s next fight.
?Yes, five months,? she texted. They want the baby born in the United States.
Jinkee said she plans to watch the Dec. 6 fight between Pacquiao and Oscar de la Hoya at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas even if she had opposed the staging of the fight.
She said De la Hoya, who has fought his last two fights at 150 pounds, is just too big for Pacquiao who just made his debut at 135 pounds last June 28.
The Pacquiaos have three kids ? Michael, Jimwell and baby girl Princess who were all born in the Philippines.
After the De la Hoya fight, win or lose, Pacquiao will be home for just a few days while Jinkee stays behind. The Pacquiaos will spend Christmas in the US as they await the birth of the child.
Pacquiao could not be reached for comment yesterday although he was in Manila. He took his oath as the newest member of KAMPI, the political party of President Arroyo.
?He looked so happy. He looked excited. As they say, suwerte daw pag may buntis sa pamilya (it brings good luck when someone in the family is pregnant),? said a close friend, Cris Aquino.
