Meet Kim Jones - Rosales: The Legal Wife

Kim Jones is a Filipino-British model who grew up in Australia. She is a fashion blogger.  Kim keeps a blog and posts about her daily looks and activities.

She has a natural beauty that is often left unmarred by makeup. “Just mascara and eyeliner,” she says when asked what she mostly likes to wear.

She’s into Insanity “because it’s a great cardio workout,” and does plyometrics at House of Pain (“very alluring, isn’t it,” she asks laughing), activities that let her maintain her enviable physique. Check it out on www.kimcamjones.com.

Kim made her TV hosting debut as one of the hosts of ETC's lifestyle show ETCetera alongside Patti Grandidge. She also hosts a 5-minute segment called ETC HQ with Julia Sniegowski and Sam Sadhwani.

Jericho Rosales first met Jones in a group dinner organized by his friend and fellow actor Dominic Ochoa.
They made their relationship official after two months of dating.

“I was really drawn to his nature, the fact that he’s so genuine,” she says of him. “He makes beso to everyone like he’s known them for like 20 years, you know what I mean? I fell in love with that… he really makes an effort to say hello to people no matter who they are.”

Physical attraction aside, “Down to his very core, (Echo) has a heart of gold,” she says. “When we were dating, we would speak for hours and hours and that’s really important to me.”

She loves the beach. Kim and Jericho share the same passion for surfing and are often spotted catching waves in La Union (PEP.ph). She also enjoys windsurfing and playing football.

Kim and Echo jive in almost everything, but they did find one more thing in common. “We can mess around as well – we bring out the worst in each other,” Kim reveals with a laugh. “He’s hilarious. We just joke around and we love playing pranks on other people,” she admits, their house helpers being the usual targets.

Still, both Kim and Echo are self-professed water babies and surfing aficionados that they will eventually turn up outdoors. “I’m always under the sun and not just for, like, an hour. I’m under the sun, in the water, sometimes for six hours a day,” Kim says.

This makes Kim a perfect brand ambassador for Neutrogena, a collaboration she describes as a “perfect partnership” because she’s been a fan of the products for some time now. Noting how affordable the products are, Kim says, “I’m a huge advocate of wearing sunscreen under your makeup. People don’t realize the effect that the sun has on their skin, daily.” This makes the brand’s Ultra Sheer sun protection range an ally to every sun and surf devotee.

Kim and Echo finally tied the knot in a private beach wedding at the Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort & Spa on Thursday. Aside from family and close friends, their celebrity guests included Piolo Pascual, Donita Rose, Gary Valenciano and family, and Iya Villania, among others. Principal sponsors were ABS-CBN head of TV production Laurenti Dyogi, Star Magic head Johnny Manahan and actress-host Coney Reyes.
