My father, John Lloyd, who has died aged 89, was a productive and talented forensic scientist, whose rigorous analytical skills overturned a series of prominent miscarriages of justice.
John joined the civil service as a forensic chemist in 1966 in the Birmingham forensic laboratory, and developed analytical methods for traces of compounds left by car tyres, explosive or gunfire residues. He published more than 40 academic papers, and his work was recognised with conferment of the degree of doctor of science by Aston University in 1983. He also contributed to international conferences, such as the International Symposium on Analysis and Detection of Explosives in Jerusalem in 1992.
In an article published on MEGA Entertainment, she admitted how she “loved” the seasoned actor.
“Parang hindi ko lang ma-define when exactly. Syempre fan-ey lang ako diba? And when you’re a fan, you love that person. So from fan-ey ako ng ‘Tabing Ilog’ to we became a love team,” she started.
“At that time, it was that and then it has transitioned to syempre a crush, and then nagpapadala ka sa mga holding hands. First (cinematic and real) kiss ko siya and so parang ganon, and then, of course, he disappointed me. Hindi ko alam may girlfriend na pala siya. Akala ko parang kami na. Tapos biglang sinabi niya sakin, may girlfriend na pala siya.”

Sexy actress Ellen Adarna didn’t back out when G3 San Pedro asked her what she was sure about hunk fiance Derek Ramsay that she wasn’t sure about the father of her love child, John Lloyd Cruz.
“First is the connection, the communication,” Ellen answered.
The Cebuana model thinks she met Derek at the “right” time. She also said that she “fixed” and “worked” on herself during the pandemic.
“I did a lot of inner work. So at that time, I knew what I wanted. I knew what was good for me, what was bad for me.”
