TV hosts Iya Villania and Drew Arellano will be welcoming a fourth new family member come June.
Villania excitedly dropped the news in the question-and-answer segment Tarantanong of her morning show “Mars Pa More” today, Jan. 3. She was asked by co-host Camille Prats if Villania’s youngest child Alana was going to become a big sister.
“Yes!” Villania happily screamed. She then goofed around by posing and pointing at her belly.
“I’ve been really lucky to have it easy again, so at least nakakapag-work ako, I’m sure yung iba diyan hindi siguro nila namalayan [na buntis ako],” she added. (I’ve been really lucky to have it easy again, so at least I can still work. I’m sure people don’t even notice that I’m pregnant.)
“So we are expecting and parating na siya (the baby’s on its way), coming soon in June.”
Villania’s other co-host, Kuya Kim Atienza, who is also a ninong in her marriage to Arellano, congratulated Villania on his Instagram page, also today.
“CONGRATS to my inaanaks @iyavillania and @drewarellano on baby no 4! You two are blessed!” he said. (Congratulations to my godchild, Iya Villania on baby number four.)
Villania and Arellano welcomed their firstborn, Primo, in 2016. Villania gave birth to their second child, Leon, in 2018. Their only daughter so far, Alana, was born in 2020. JB
