She’s undoubtedly one of the biggest names and precious gems of the local entertainment scene. Thus, it really astonished showbiz onlookers when Lovi Poe made the enormous move of transferring to ABS-CBN last September in spite of the current circumstances it’s in. 

But what’s not surprising is the fact that she has been so adorable ever since she was a kid, as seen in some of her childhood photos that we collated in this gallery! 

Born Lourdes Virginia Moran-Poe on February 11, 1989, she is the daughter of the late “King of Philippine Movies” Fernando Poe Jr. with former actress-model and beauty queen Rowena Moran.  

At the age of 16, she entered the industry and went on to become one of the most sought-after and award-winning actresses of her generation.  

We may not know much about her childhood, but in her past media interviews, the 32-year-old actress-singer recalled how she used to have a happy and typical childhood together with her mom and younger sister Mariel. She may not be able to spend a lot of time with her father, yet she’s very much thankful to him for being a good and supportive father.  

Lovi also recalled being active in extracurricular activities, especially in glee and drama clubs, when she was still studying and wanting to sing and be onstage ever since she was a kid. She also experienced playing outdoors along with her playmates, who are mostly boys, making her boyish growing up. 

She may be the daughter of a showbiz royalty, but she’s able to create her own mark in the local entertainment scene and become an award-winning actress and passionate singer. Surely, a lot of Kapamilyas couldn’t wait to see and hear more of her on the network!
