Actress and TV Host Mariel Padilla has given birth to her first child with husband Robin Padilla in Delaware, U.S.A. on November 14, 2016.
Baby Isabella is Mariel and Robin’s first child after six years of marriage. They tied the knot on August 19, 2010 in India.
Knowing that she had a delicate condition – Mariel suffered two miscarriages in the past – she made the decision to fly to the U.S. to receive extra medical attention.

Robin, who was denied a U.S. Visa despite his persistent attempts to obtain one, shared a video conversation he had with Mariel while she was in labor. In the clip, which you can watch below, Robin apologized for not being able to be there with her during the birth of their first child.
‘Isabella was born 7:56 am on November 14,2016, 7.3 lbs and 20 inches. Exactly 21 hours of labor and Normal Delivery…’
“Isabella was born 7:56 am on November 14,2016, 7.3 lbs and 20 inches. Exactly 21 hours of labor and Normal Delivery,” shared Robin in his post. “Maraming salamat po Mahal na Panginoong maylikha sa biyaya ng buhay at kaligayahan. Nagpapasalamat po ako sa mga taong inyong inalay sa amin upang maalagaan ang aking asawa sa kanyang maselan na pagbubuntis hanggang sa panganganak.”
Padilla was convicted in 1994 for possession of illegal firearms. So obtaining travel permits has been a challenge for him ever since.
We can’t wait to see baby Isabella’s first photos!
