Missing Ricky Boy
Coco Martin and Al Vaughn Chier Tuliao
Not a few fans wept buckets when Ricky Boy, the 2-year-old son of cop-turned-jeepney driver Cardo Dalisay, perished in a terrorist attack in the ABS-CBN series, “FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano.”
Actor Coco Martin, who plays Cardo, reportedly had a tough time doing the emotionally charged scene. He has clearly grown fond of the kid. Coco wrote on Facebook: “I will miss you, Ricky Boy.”
Ricky Boy is portrayed by Al Vaughn Chier Tuliao, who just turned 2 years old a few weeks ago. That meant the prodigy was only a year old when he joined the prime-time action-drama show.
“He is receptive in our scenes and very amiable,” recalled costar Malou Crisologo. “He’s a cute and smart kid, and we adore him tremendously.”
Which makes letting go all the more difficult.
