Mark Herras and his non-showbiz wife Nicole Donesa are now a family of four, as they welcomed their second child, a baby girl.
Herras took to his Instagram account on Saturday, June 28, to share the good news, revealing that Donesa gave birth to their second child three days prior. The announcement also included a black-and-white photo of the actor-dancer while cradling his daughter.
“M i J A [heart emoji] 06-25-25,” he captioned his post, with what appeared to be the date of their daughter’s birth. The “Starstruck” alum also did not say if “Mija” is the actual name of his daughter, or if he was just using the shortened Spanish term for “mi hija,” (my daughter).

Meanwhile, Donesa revealed that she gave birth to her daughter at the Providence Hospital in Quezon City in a separate post.
“See you, our little princess,” she wrote.

Herras and Donesa tied the knot in a civil ceremony in September 2021, although they welcomed their first child, Corky, seven months prior to saying “I do.” The couple announced that they were expecting their second child in December 2024.
The actor-dancer was previously involved in a controversial partnership with singer Jojo Mendrez earlier this year, wherein the former was spotted gifting Mendrez with a surprise bouquet and showing up at the latter’s events.
Their friendship, however, ended on a sour note, with Mendrez accusing Herras of grave threats, and that the latter allegedly threatened to burn down the “Nandito Lang Ako” singer’s house. /edv
