The President of the Philippines is separated to his wife Elizabeth Zimmerman but their marriage is still not annulled. She is still the legal wife. Some people agreed that she should be the first lady. She could be the first foreign first lady if she got the title.
The president is currently living with his Mistress, so we can say this concubine could be the first lady since she is the "current wife" Her being a mistress though may cause some negative attention.
Other people suggest it should be his Daughter Sara Duterte so there wont be controversy and Just like her Father, she is a successful politician on her own right. Sara wanted to Focus on Davao city though where she is in position of power.
The new president is getting a lot of Praises from the Netizens who voted for him. if I try to criticize him on Youtube or facebook his fans will attack me like a hoard of zombies.
International Media doesn't receive him well though. How can this guy gets investor to this country if foreign countries don't like him?

Never attempt to criticize him for you will get a bunch bashes. Hahaha. That's how Filipinos adored Duterte so much. Well, I have nothing to say, except that he was not my president in the election.

I am confident to do that here in Mylot due to the no cyber bullying policy. I will be eaten alive if I criticize him on Facebook,Twitter, Youtube and Instagram. His fans are like puppies with rabies.

The Du30 supporters/fanatics could get terrifying to an extent, sure. Not all of them, but many are. It's saddening to see how they end up making (empty) threats to anyone who speaks against their idol. :(

I think you cannot call the mistress as "mistress" anymore. Though Zimmerman and Duterte are not legally separated, but they've separated for more than 10 years already, and that's enough to declare their separation valid if they will raise it in proper court. If the 2nd wife will be chosen as his 1st lady, there's nothing to worry about it. But remember, PNoy don't even have 1st lady.

Technically Pnoy's first lady is his sister. Zimmerman and Duterte seemed to be in good terms though, she campaigned for him. I think I will wait for his inauguration so we can finally see who will be the first lady.
Sara would be a cool First lady though, she is a biker chick with tattoos.

@CaptAlbertWhisker I doubt that. She is the Mayor of Davao already.

I think it was mentioned in the news that the presumptive president's daughter will be his first lady.

I think she is the right choice because I will be awkward with her wife and his mistress may not get well received.

@CaptAlbertWhisker I voted for GP as well and LR for VP!
We get the leaders that we deserve. Hopefully, we learn our lesson and we are not wrong in voting for him in office.

I am pretty sure Australia dont like him but he can still get a good impression from the US.. Maybe Russia would work for him. He is similar to Putin.

@Lucky15 Putin Banned Swear words on Russia though. Maybe Fidel Castro is his ideal buddy.

Having a First Lady is not that important. We have a history of spouses causing the downfall of the sitting Presidents.

First ladies actually do charities. Not all first ladies have to be a spouse though. There were events in the history where the president's sister, Mother of daughter became the first lady.
Yeah Imelda is Marcos' down fall and Mr. Arroyo is Gloria Macapacal Arroyo's downfall.

Does the president's official first lady matter that much as how they will handle the country does? I am now actually wondering if it is stated in the Constitution or elsewhere that the president MUST have a first lady/gentleman.
As far as i know, since PNoy is single, he didn't hve an official first lady during his term. He has his four sisters as ladies of the hpuse, to serve as hosts, too, though.

Technically His youngest sister is the first lady because she does indeed became the hosts head of states and investors. So yeah a first lady does have a purpose. Not as Important but they do help.

@CaptAlbertWhisker But Mayor DU30 has no more wife but a mistress, so I think his daughter will fit the role.

Yup, he is not married to Honeylet. He is in good terms with Zimmerman though because she endorsed him.
