Personal life
Villarroel started her relationship Rustom Padilla on June 24, 1992. They married in 1994; the two had no children, and Villarroel filed for annulment several years after, which was granted in 2002.
Villarroel started her relationship Zoren Legaspi in 2000. They married on November 15, 2012. the couple had twins on January 6, 2001, in the United States. Legaspi planned a surprise proposal and civil wedding with the help of their families and the network. The ceremony was later aired the following Saturday as the television special Zoren-Carmina: Always Forever, A Wedding Like No Other. The idea of a surprise proposal followed by a flashmob-style instant wedding was inspired by a remarkably similar episode of the U.S. television programme Mobbed, hosted by Howie Mandel.
