Sinon Loresca Jr., was popularized by the noon time variety show Eat Bulaga.
He was known as one of the Lolas’ bodyguards, who turned out to be a woman-at-heart. After his frequest appearances on national television, he was slowly recognized as a public figure. He started having show guestings, and the recent one was the Magpakailanman episode about his life story entitled Rampa ni Rogelia which was aired last Saturday, March 04, 2017.
He started creating videos online, mostly inside a gym, which had become a trend and later on noticed by a television network staff. From then on, he was labeled as Rogelia and had his first appearance on the segment Kalyeserye.
Here are the ten things that we did not know about dabarkads Rogelia.
- He grew up receiving harsh treatment from his parents.
Sinon has never hid his real identity ever since. He knew right away that he had not only a soft heart, but a feminine grace as well. His parents never approved of his chosen path and had always neglected him as a child.
- Sinon is a Beauty Contest finalist who often loses, but never gives up.
Generally, gay Filipinos love joining pageants regardless of the number they lose or win. For Sinon, entering a beaucon was one of his passions that he doesn’t get tired of.
- His parents did not attend his high school graduation.
When Sinon gave his diploma to his mother, she just threw it away after taking a quick glance on it. After his older sister graduated and had a good life in London, he finally had the courage to walk away from home and do whatever he thinks will make him happy.
- He worked as a house helper for three months.
It was the first job he ever got, but left in a span of three months because of the physical abuse he gets from his employer.
- Sinon went to live with his two uncles and worked in Payatas.
For one year, he endured the hard work of having to collect scraps and junk which he sold in junk shops. He enjoyed a simple life, together with kids who do the same job as him.
- His mother and father went to find him four years later.
When his older sister came back from London, she brought their parents with her to talk to Sinon but ended up in an unpleasant situation.
- Sinon donated his kidney to his sister.
When Catherine had a complication, she was discovered to have chronic kidney failure which requires immediate organ transplant. He did not hesitate at all to give his sister what she needed even when he knew that there is a slim chance of surviving.
- He stayed in London and married a British guy for Visa.
After her sister’s successful operation, he decided to engage in dating personally and in online to meet a potential partner and to live a good life. Luckily, he met Richard who became his husband afterwards.
- Sinon’s father died without receiving his forgiveness.
He found it hard to give what he needed not because he was selfish, but because Sinon went through a whole lot of hardships in life. But when he returned to the Philippines, he was finally able to give the forgiveness that was long due.
- He loves charity work.
Sinon can often be found on the streets, feeding the street children. Even when he had nothing in his pocket, he always had the heart for them and never refused to help whenever he can.
Sinon was one of the most successful persons who had gone through so much, that’s why he was rewarded with all the good things in life that he is receiving in the present.
He is one of the living proofs that no matter how hard life may be, one can be successful if he is patient and hardworking enough.
