Bianca Umali took her graduation march Thursday, March 28, after finishing senior high school.
The actress, 19, completed her studies as a working student at Veritas Catholic School in Parañaque.
Umali beamed in her white toga and graduation cap as she attended the rites this morning.
Umali’s feat comes amid losing her parents at a young age–her mom when she was 5 and her dad when she was 10. She was raised by her paternal grandmother and quickly learned to be independent.
In the new drama series “Sahaya,” Umali is in her biggest role yet as she plays the titular character who is a determined Badjao girl.
Congratulations, Bianca! /ra
