In the five decades that he’s been in the entertainment industry, Christopher de Leon has probably played over a hundred of characters, both in film and television. From being a matinee idol in his younger years, he has gone on to become one of the most dependable actors to portray husband and father roles, such as in the current teleserye that he stars in, <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/batangquiapo" target="_blank">FPJ’s Batang Quiapo</a>. While we probably have mixed feelings towards his character Ramon Montenegro since he’s been an absentee father to his biological son Tanggol (Coco Martin) and a loving yet possessive husband to his late spouse Mokang (Lovi Poe), the veteran actor is totally different in real life because he’s an incredibly responsible, doting, and awesome partner and dad to his beloved family.And in this feature, we’re going to focus on the blissful life that he shares with his ultimate partner Sandy and their five cherished offspring, Rafael, Miguel, Gabriel, Mariel, and Mica. Despite being two of the most illustrious veteran actors in the local entertainment scene, Christopher and Sandy are able to keep their personal lives, especially their kids, away from the limelight. None of them are apparently keen on joining their famous parents in showbiz, except for Mariel, who joined Binibining Pilipinas in 2013 and later became the Philippines’ representative to the Miss International pageant in 2017. She even became the leading lady of Coco Martin in the 2017 Metro Manila Film Festival entry “Ang Panday.”We may not know much about their other kids since all of them are living private lives in different parts of the world, but what we’re certain of is the amount of love that they have for their beloved parents. And we’re able to witness that during their appearance in ABS-CBN Entertainment’s online talk show “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/lovethywoman/videos/christopher-at-sandy-nakatanggap-ng-mensahe-mula-sa-kanilang-mga-anak-love-thy-chika-283072" target="_blank">Love Thy Chika</a>,” which was hosted by the veteran actor’s <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/lovethywoman" target="_blank">Love Thy Woman</a> co-star, Ruffa Gutierrez, in 2020.They might be far away from each other – with Rafael living and working in New Zealand with his own family; Miguel being based in San Francisco, California with his own family as well; Mariel and Gabriel both based in New York; and Mica keeping her mom and dad company here in the Philippines – yet they’re still able to maintain their tight bond by constantly checking on and talking to one another. And on March 27, 2024, the couple even marked their 44th year of being together since 1980. They got married in 2001 and renewed their vows 18 years later in Halong Bay, Vietnam, in 2019.Go through some of the lovely snaps of the Andolong-De Leon family through the years in this gallery!

Get a glimpse of how sweet, doting, and cool “tatay” Christopher de Leon is to his beloved family through his lovely pictures with them.
