- Gender: Female

Blanca was married twice. As divorce is not legal in the Philippines, she separated from her first husband, Victorino Torres when their daughter Kaye was two years old. She later married her second husband Roger Lawrence Strunk (1941-2007) an American singer and actor, known by his screen name Rod Lauren in Las Vegas in 1979. The couple relocated to Manila.
On November 7, 2001, Blanca was found murdered; beaten and stabbed 13 times in the back seat of her car. Her husband Rod Strunk was named as a person of interest. A man named Philip Medel was also one of the suspects. Strunk went back to the US in 2003, before charges could be filed against him. He jumped from the balcony of a California motel in 2007. Medel died later. Blanca's case remains unsolved.
