Kung ano man ang tunay na dahilan, may karapatan ang pamilya Cielo to have their privacy....

We know from Marky's short career showbiz life that he lived a good and colorful life And that's what we should all remember....

With our thoughts and prayers, we pray that Marky is now in a better place stress free in Heaven...

omg,, this is soo sad,,

i was at home when i heard about the news,,

i was watching showbiz central and katrina halili was a guest and she was asked how she felt about marky's death,,

i was like there's no way marky's dead,,

and i found out later that the news was true, i even search for it to make sure,,

i dont know if i was still in the Philippines when he won in the starstruck but i know him for sure for being a great dancer,,

i really admire him and im a big fan,,

i still cant believe it,,T_T
