In a recent vlog, the comedienne revealed that she once lost a piece of jewelry worth a staggering P350,000. The incident happened years ago, but the sting of the loss remains a vivid memory. According to Pokwang, the item was an Omega Pearl limited edition, a valuable piece she had worked hard to earn.

The disappearance occurred in 2014 while she was busy filming a movie. In the middle of the hectic schedule and the rush of moving between locations, she remembered passing the jewelry to someone for safekeeping. “Matagal na ‘yon, 2014 pa. Ayoko namang magbintang, nagtatanong ako pero wala umamin kung kanino ko naiabot,” she shared.

She vividly remembers being inside an elevator and handing the item to a companion because she was in a hurry. Unfortunately, when the shoot ended and she was ready to collect her things, the jewelry was nowhere to be found, and no one from her circle would take responsibility. The experience taught her to be much more protective of her personal belongings, especially during the chaos of a production set.

Known for her resilience, Pokwang continues to move forward, proving that while she may lose material things or leave certain roles, her drive to succeed as a businesswoman and a mother never wavers.
