Jolina Magdangal and Rivermaya’s Mark Escueta welcomed their second child, a baby girl named Vika Anaya.
The TV host and actress made the joyous announcement on her Instagram page with her first photo post of baby Vika. Only the lower half of Vika’s face is seen, as well as her tiny hands, with a butterfly clip placed on her pink left shirtsleeve.
“Andito na sya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maraming salamat sa lahat ng dasal. Ang sakit ng tahi pero pipilitin ko kayanin. Sobrang worth it ang lahat ng sakit dahil sa nakita kong reaction ni Pele kay Vika,” she wrote.
(She’s here! Thank you to all those who prayed. The stitches are painful but I’ll take it as best I can. All the pain was worth it after I saw Pele’s reaction to Vika.)
Magdangal underwent a scheduled Caesarean section just as she did for firstborn Pele. Escueta said in an Instagram post hours before the procedure that it was both exciting and nerve-wracking for the family, even for the second time around. JB
