One of the country’s leading and award-winning journalists, Korina Sanchez-Roxas fronts our April issue as she speaks about being a mother for the first time

With the national elections fast approaching, candidates are everywhere, rigorously campaigning for a favourable majority vote with their platforms. Standing beside them are their equally busy spouses who, in full support, vouch for their loved one wherever and whenever possible. Case in point: top journalist Korina Sanchez-Roxas, who has dropped her current news jobs to avoid bias and to support her husband, senatorial bet Mar Roxas.

Decked in a classic little black dress and sunglasses, a stylish Korina walked into the studio and greeted our team. She looked more fit than ever, with a toned body thanks to her Belo family, and radiant—probably brought about by the upcoming arrival of her twin babies to the home she shares with Mar.

She came prepared and ready with her own ideas, reasonably excited to become a first-time mum. She was even shopping during the shoot and was repeatedly asking our set designer Justine Arcega-Bumanlag where she got the cute items from our nursery set (all from Rustan’s Home). Korina gamely posed for the camera and enthusiastically talked about her soon-to-be motherhood status.
