Vanessa Lachey’s Parents Helen Bercero and Vince Minnillo
How did Vanessa Lachey’s parents meet? The couple has not given any information related to the circumstances under which they meet and started their relationship. However, according to some sources, the couple got married in 1974. They got married in a beautiful ceremony in the presence of their friends, family, and loved ones.
Her husband Vince Minnillo, is an American citizen from Cleveland, Ohio, of Italian and Irish descent, while Helen Ramos Bercero, is from Manila, Philippines. Despite their differences, they made a cute couple.
The couple had their daughter Venessa on November 9, 1980, in 13th Air Force Regional Medical Center at Clark Air Base in Angeles City, Philippines. The couple also has an adopted son who is two years older than their daughter. Helen Bercero’s husband moved the family frequently because of his service in the Air Force. The family lived in Washington, California, Nevada, Florida, Germany, and Japan and their daughter Venessa attended eight schools in nine years.
The couple separated in 1983 and were divorced in 1986. Her daughter was nine years old when the divorce took place. Both Helen and her ex-husband both got married again. Helen Bercero relocated to Turkey with their children and her new husband.
In 2006, Helen’s daughter Venessa began dating singer Nick Lachey after she appeared in the music video for his song “What’s Left of Me”. The couple became engaged in November 2010 and married on July 15, 2011, at Sir Richard Branson’s private Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands.
According to radaronline, Helen Bercero had no idea that her gorgeous 30-year-old daughter was even getting married. And when Star Magazine spoke with her exclusively at her South Carolina mobile home 12 days after Vanessa and Nick’s July 15 wedding in the British Virgin Islands, Helen struggled with her emotions.
“Oh my goodness, she’s beautiful!” Helen, then 57 years, told Star as she grew misty-eyed while looking at photos of Vanessa and Nick on their St. Barts honeymoon.
“She’s changed so much, though I can still see that little scar on her forehead from where she picked at her chicken pox when she was a child.
“I didn’t have a clue that Vanessa was getting married. We last spoke about 12 years ago, on the phone. I just wanted to talk to her and tell her everything straight about my life. But I still think about her all the time, and I still love her dearly.”
“Our relationship wasn’t that sexual,” Helen says of her ex. “I think we both just wanted to be with somebody.” A year after Vanessa was born, they moved to the Los Angeles area, but Helen and her hubby — who once likened their relationship to “World War III” — were soon on the outs.
As the family moved around during that relationship, Helen tells Star: “I worked as a waitress at a strip club in Florida, and as a hostess at the Palomino strip club in Las Vegas. I made a lot of money.”
Helen’s second marriage ended soon after — and so did her relationship with Vanessa after she dropped her and her brother Vincent Jr off at their father’s house in Charleston, S.C.
“Helen said, ‘Keep them for now,’ ” Vincent recalls. “But she never came back.”
Vanessa has admitted that she became “sad, confused and emotional” about being abandoned by her mom but otherwise has remained tightlipped about why they’ve never ended their estrangement.
As for Helen Bercero, she tells Star: “It would be nice to have a relationship with her now, but I don’t know how she’d feel if I called her.”
And if Vanessa and Nick had kids? “It would be a happy occasion to meet my grandchildren. Whatever she’s doing today, I hope she’s happy with this man and that he treats her well. She’s still my little girl.” Nick and Vanessa Lachey have three children: Camden John, Brooklyn Elisabeth, and Phoenix Robert.
An insider tells Star Magazine that Vanessa didn’t also invite her older brother, Vincent Minnillo Jr., a 33-year-old grocery store worker in Illinois to her tropical wedding to singer Nick Lachey.
