Gretchen Barretto (born 1970) is an actress from the Philippines. Along with Dawn Zulueta, Donita Rose, and Lucy Torres-Gomez, she is one of the most beautiful faces of the Philippines and is the eldest of the Barretto Sisters with Marjorie Barretto and Claudine Barretto. She is currently in a much publicized and controversial relationship with Filipino billionaire businessman Antonio "Tonyboy" Cojuangco. They have one child.

Controversy

Barretto was entangled on an internet scandal with Filipino actor John Estrada. Two photos of Barretto and Estrada were circulated on the internet. One photo shows them sitting closely beside each other, as though they were lovers. A second photo shows both of them kissing intimately. Barretto was still on a relationship with Cojuangco when the pictures were taken.

Barretto never denied that she and Estrada were the ones on the photo, which was taken in the house of actress Rufa Mae Quinto during the latter's birthday party.

Personal Quotes

"I fight back only when it gets too much. But I believe in the law of karma. I don't push anyone ... until I am pushed."

"Never start a fight but never run from one."

"Knowing and accepting completes me. Knowing that life can't be perfect and accepting and acknowledging all the hurt. As one of the movies I've seen says ... it's not how low you fall but how high you rise after. I'm glad I've grown to be this strong. Everyone stumbles, but not everyone gets back on their feet."

"If a problem doesn't kill you, it can only make you strong. If you go through the pain and survive, then it becomes very good. That's something money can't buy."
