Oyo, Kristine welcome their baby girl


Kristine Hermosa and Oyo Boy Sotto’s “answered prayer” finally came on December 26, as the former gave birth to a bouncing baby girl at 11:49 p.m.

In a statement, Sotto said their baby, Ondrea Bliss, came by way of a normal delivery with a weight of 2680gm. He even added, "Tin is okay and still recovering. She was brought to the hospital around 6pm yesterday. Thanks."

Recall that in a November interview with “The Buzz,” Hermosa explained that Ondrea means “strong and courageous" while Bliss means "unmeasurable joy." Hermosa is known for having polycystic ovary, but apparently her case didn’t affect her capacity to bear a child. PEP’s report noted that the couple’s baby was not supposed to be due until January 12 next year. Despite the earlier delivery, the couple was teeming with happiness as they welcome baby Ondrea to their family.

In a previous interview with PEP, Sotto admitted his uncertainty in becoming a father. "Sa akin kasi, you're not ready till you're there na. Hanggang sa wala pa, hindi ko masasabi," said the son of veteran actors Dinna Bonnevie and Vic Sotto. Nevertheless, he confessed in the report that they’ve made the “necessary preparations” to gear themselves for their child’s birth.
"Sa akin, kung ano ‘yung puwede naming gawin ngayon, ginagawa na namin."

"I attended a birthing class—‘yung mga ganun, parenting conference, ‘yung mga ganun," said the “Valiente” star. He even added that they already have a nursery for their baby.

Aside from Ondrea Bliss, the couple has an adopted son named Quiel, who is now three years old. Hermosa and Sotto tied the knot in private ceremony at Club Balai Isabel in Talisay, Batangas on January 12 this year.
