She also appeared in Combat Killers with Leopoldo Salcedo and the film was released as a class B movie in the United States. She is currently married to former De La Salle Green Archer basketball star Ernesto "Nonggoy" Hernaez, with whom she has three children. They now reside in California.

Personal life
Born to a Spanish-Irish father and a Spanish mother, Marlene graduated from Saint Scholastica's College in León Guinto Street, Malate, Manila. In the beginning, she was entirely a stranger to Tagalog, then the main language used for mainstream Filipino movies because Marlene only spoke English at school and Spanish at home. When she was discovered, this proved to be the one hurdle she had to overcome before becoming a bankable star. Nevertheless, with the help of Rosa Mía and her sacrifices from attending social functions while memorizing her Tagalog lines in between filming sessions, she was able to ace her acting career.
