Claudia Barretto is officially off the market.
The singer, daughter of Marjorie Barretto and Dennis Padilla, married her longtime boyfriend, Basti Lorenzo, in a stunning and intimate ceremony at Lakehall at Nena’s Sanctuary in Santa Rosa, Laguna, on 8 April.
Claudia looked effortlessly elegant in a simple yet chic off-the-shoulder wedding gown, as seen on fencer Jian Miguel Bautista’s Instagram story. Basti, son of Martin Ignacio Lorenzo and Leah de Leon Lorenzo, kept it classic in a traditional Barong Tagalog.
The special occasion was a full family affair. In attendance were Claudia’s parents, Marjorie and Dennis, as well as her siblings Dani, Julia, Leon, and Erich, with brother-in-law Xavi Panlilio. The event also drew celebrity guests like Richard Gomez and Lucy Torres-Gomez.
Claudia and Basti have kept their nearly decade-long relationship under wraps, with minimal appearances and mentions online. According to Pep, the newlyweds are marking their 10th anniversary together this year.
Barretto first made waves in 2017 with her debut single “Stay” and has since balanced her music career with academics, graduating with a degree in Psychology from Ateneo de Manila University in 2022.
Meanwhile, Basti Lorenzo is no stranger to the spotlight either. He hails from one of the country’s most prominent business families, as his father once owned Pancake House and ran Del Monte Philippines. His brother Mateo is married to actress Erich Gonzales.
Basti is also an accomplished golfer, having defended his Open Division title at the Manila Golf Club Championships last January, edging out his older brother Santi in an exciting finale.
In a 2016 Tonight With Boy Abunda interview, Claudia candidly shared how open she had been with her mother about her relationship with Basti.
“Every stage. Like when he started asking me out, when I started liking him, I was very vocal about it, and I told my mom everything,” she said.
