Biography
Sylvia Sanchez was born on May 19, 1971, in Nasipit, Agusan del Norte. Very little is known of her mother. When she was only ten years old, her father, Robert Ocampo, a retired seafarer, abandoned their family. This was a turning point in her life where she knew she had to step into her father’s shoes, no matter how big they seemed to be, and become the family’s breadwinner. She was brave and adamant in her fight to ensure her siblings would continue with their education against all the odds.
She is happily married to Art Atayde and has five talented children, with some taking after their mother’s acting skills. Out of her five children, she has a daughter from a previous marriage. Her challenging childhood has been a blessing in disguise that strengthened her mulish and go-getter attitude in the entertainment industry.
The veteran actress started her acting career at a young age, but this never deterred her ambitions. She has starred in different television networks, taking up both leading and supporting roles that have made her become one of Philippine's best-known actresses.
Sylvia Sanchez husband
Art Atayde is the husband of Sylvia Sanchez. He is only six years older than Sanchez. The two have had genuine love and admiration for each other that has lasted for more than three decades. The love birds met each other in the late ‘80s when the half-Spanish businessman, Art Atayde, swept Sanchez off her feet. His love for Sylvia is crystal clear since he also accepted her daughter from her previous marriage.

Sylvia and Art wrapped up several years of staying together by officially tying the knot on March 27, 2004. Their three-decade relationship has stood the test of time, and at some point, they were separated for a year. Their wholehearted, sincere and steadfast bond with a strong foundation of love, was their key to getting their relationship back on track.
"Mahal namin ang isa’t isa,” Sylvia summarises the main ingredient of their 30-year relationship.
