Angel Locsin shares rare message about stepson Joaquin Arce

Angel Locsin is not one to comment publicly about her family, but her latest post on X offered a rare and emotional glimpse into her role as a mother and her deep pride for her stepson, Joaquin Arce, who is currently inside the Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0 house.

In her message, Angel reflected on Joaquin’s growth through the years, describing him as a young man who “helps, listens, and keeps the peace at home.” She also asked viewers for understanding, revealing for the first time that Joaquin is completely deaf in his right ear.

“I don’t usually comment, but seeing Joaquin grow from a little boy into someone who helps, listens, and keeps the peace at home makes me proud. If he ever talks a bit loud or doesn’t respond, please forgive him — our son is completely deaf in his right ear,” she said.

Angel’s post not only showed the family’s quiet journey with Joaquin’s hearing condition but also highlighted his resilience and maturity — traits becoming visible to PBB viewers. As he navigates the challenges of the reality show, Angel’s message serves as a reminder that behind every housemate is a story of strength, growth, and a family cheering them on.
