Angel Aquino said something that most people don’t know about her
Actress Angel Aquino revealed in a recent interview that she likes girls, and this received various reactions from netizens.
Angel started as a model. Eventually, she ventured into acting and had some hosting stints in the past. One of the most remarkable acting projects she did was the movie Glorious with actor Tony Labrusca, which was about a May-December love affair.
Angel’s private life is not quite in the spotlight compared to other celebrities in the Philippine entertainment industry. However, it is a known fact that she is a single parent and she has two daughters.
Her daughter, Iana Bernardez, has started her acting career, and as a mother and an actress, Angel Aquino is very supportive.
In a recent interview on Bilyonaryo News Channel’s The Daily Dish, Angel talks about starting her career as a model and eventually becoming an actress. She shared that she did not expect to be a model, and this goes the same with acting.
Then, she was asked about being a victim of a deepfake adult video, which led her to speak in the Senate about this. Angel shared that it was her daughters who encouraged her to fight for her rights.
In the interview, Angel also talked about her upcoming movie directed by award-winning director Brillante Mendoza, which they hoped to be part of the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) 2025.
The actress was also asked about her health struggle with Vitiligo. She said that this started during the pandemic, when she saw a spot on her hand. Angel shared that this shocked her because her skin and her body are her “puhunan” as a model.
Then, as part of the rapid-fire questions from the hosts, she was asked, “Something people don’t know about you?” Angel Aquino initially said that she did not know because her life is an open book. Then, she said, “I like girls.”
One of the hosts said that maybe some people don’t know about that. Angel said that a lot of people did not know this about her. “Or are in denial,” the actress jokingly said, and added while laughing, “Sila talaga yung in denial.”
Clarifying her answer that she likes girls, she said that this meant that she also falls in love with girls. This was shared on a popular showbiz site, and netizens expressed their reactions.
