Outside the Philippines? Freddie Aguilar?

A - TL;DR but i checked out

1 - 'The only legal route for most of the population to dissolve marriages in the Philippines is through annulment.'

2 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divorce_in_the_Philippines#Alternative_methods_of_dissolution

there's no explicit mention of going outside the philippines but i guess that's implicit in the 'most' of the population since minority of the population can go outside and get their marriages divorced?

B - wait what about Freddie Aguilar? Thewriter006 (talk) 17:44, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A

1 - True, although legal separation is not really "ending the marriage" legally, tweaked the relevant section. "Alternatives to divorce"

2 - it's not a route that's available to people. As far as I know, its only for couples which at the very least initially started with a non-Filipino citizen and a Filipino citizen.

B - WP:NOTFORUM, but the anti-child marriage law has not been passed at the time and that Aguilar married under Islamic rite where "early marriage" is permissible under certain circumstances. If the question is his marriage is now invalid now that a new law is passed is not for us, but to court to decide.
