Actress and former TV host Rica Peralejo turned to Instagram to share a meaningful family moment as she reunited with actress Heaven Peralejo and the latter’s mother, Shiela Luanne Peralejo, during a JisuLife event at BGC High Street.

In her caption, Rica wrote with playful excitement and warmth: “Finally! After some time, nagkasama na din kami ni Heaven Peralejo in one event (thank JisuLife PH!) haha! And I also got to see her mama, my favorite cousin Luanne Peralejo. So yes, everyone, WE ARE RELATED. We are indeed Peralejos!!! And we are proud of our genes hahahaha. Happy Sunday!”

The statement offered clarity to speculation. While Rica and Heaven have both been in the public eye for quite some time, they’ve rarely been photographed or seen together, fueling questions about whether they were actually related or simply shared a surname. Rica’s lighthearted yet definitive words once again clarified their relationship.

Her use of all caps—“WE ARE RELATED”—along with the affirming “We are indeed Peralejos” gives a sense of pride not only in their shared bloodline but also in the legacy that the Peralejo name has come to represent in Philippine showbiz. From Rica’s time as one of the most familiar faces on youth-oriented shows in the late ’90s and early 2000s to Heaven’s more recent rise as a Kapamilya actress, the family continues to leave a mark on the industry across generations.

Equally touching was Rica’s mention of Heaven’s mother, whom she called her “favorite cousin,” suggesting that the closeness isn’t just for the cameras. The photo, featuring warm smiles and casual conversation, reflected a real sense of connection—something that resonated deeply with fans who have followed both women’s journeys.

Beyond the public reveal, Rica’s post highlighted how events like these—brand-sponsored, social media-friendly gatherings—can sometimes unexpectedly serve as venues for genuine family encounters. It’s not just about the glitz and product promotions; occasionally, it becomes a stage for joyful reunions and reconnections that fans get to witness in real time.

Perhaps the deeper message was one of kinship, belonging, and continuity: that even in the ever-evolving landscape of Philippine entertainment, family still finds a way to shine through.
