Screengrabbed from Esquire PH’s Facebook page
For the second time, Sen. Grace Poe graced the cover of Esquire Philippines magazine—this time as a child with her late father Fernando Poe Jr. in celebration of the upcoming Father’s Day.
Esquire posted its June 2015 cover on its Facebook page, which showed the young Grace hugging the “King of Philippine cinema.”
The magazine said its Father’s Day issue would also contain exclusive, never-before-seen photos of the late action star provided by the senator herself.
“Stories on the actor feature tributes from Lourd de Verya, who grew up watching his movies, and stories from writer (and sometime ad man) Erwin Castillo, who recalls his collaboration and friendship with the action star,” it added.
Senator Poe was also featured in the magazine’s December 2014-January 2015 issue, with the tagline “Think Grace”: “We sat down with Sen. Grace Poe, who might just be headed for a bigger role in all our lives. We’ve become used to ‘the way things are.’ But we shouldn’t be. The next five years are crucial. We know real change has to happen.”
Despite being mum on her political plans in the 2016 elections, Poe has emerged one of the strongest contenders in the presidential race, behind Vice President Jejomar Binay. YG/RC
