DAVAO CITY — If he could relive his life, President Rodrigo Duterte says he would still want to be husband to his ex-wife Elizabeth Zimmerman, who celebrated her 70th birthday on Saturday. Because that is love,” Duterte said in a statement during his tribute for Zimmerman. A photo shared on social media by City Information Officer Jefry Tupas shows a smiling Zimmerman in a red dress seated beside the President. The President and Zimmerman also later posed for a photo with their children, Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio, former Vice Mayor Paolo, and Sebastian; and their grandchildren as they flashed the signature Duterte fist. “To my beloved mother, thank you for your never ending advises and care for me and my children,” Paolo wrote on his Facebook account.
