Liza Soberano is savoring her time bonding with her Filipino-Portuguese half brother, John, who came over for a visit.
Ogie Diaz, Soberano’s talent manager, took to social media on Feb. 18 to share photos of the two. According to Diaz, John is 22 years old and is Soberano’s half brother from her dad, who is also named John.
“Siya si John, 22 yo. Ang mother niya Portuguese. Ang daddy naman niya ay Filipino,” Diaz wrote. “Matangkad na bata, mga 6 or 6’1 ang height. Si Liza ay 5’7.”
