Another star is rising in the Agoncillo household.
Johanna Louise “Yohan” Agoncillo, the eldest daughter of award-winning actress Judy Ann Santos and TV host-actor Ryan Agoncillo, recently showcased her vocal talent by releasing her first-ever music cover on YouTube. Uploading under the channel Yohan Jams, the 20-year-old delighted viewers with her heartfelt rendition of “This Is Me” by Keala Settle from the hit musical film The Greatest Showman.
Accompanied on piano by family friend Pedro Busita, also known as Tito Pedz, Yohan’s debut was made even more special with her father Ryan Agoncillo credited as the director of the video. The project served as a true family affair, underscoring the love, creativity, and quiet support that surrounds the young aspiring artist.
For Santos, it was also a full-circle moment. In past interviews, the actress opened up about how deeply she prayed for a daughter—and how her prayers were answered at the exact moment she had hoped.
“I prayed for her. I asked the Lord in every single prayer… ‘Lord, sana kapag 26 na ako, magkaroon ako ng anak na babae,’” she shared. “At 26, I got Yohan. It changed my life. I wasn’t prepared, but I knew—pag-uwi ko, nanay na ako.”
Yohan, who grew up mostly away from the spotlight, is the first of Judy Ann and Ryan’s three children, followed by their son Lucho and youngest daughter Luna. While she has occasionally appeared in her parents’ social media posts, this recent release marks a new chapter as Yohan begins carving out her own creative path.
And with her family behind her every step of the way, it looks like this is just the beginning.
