Xander Ford and Gena Mago


Meet the newborn baby boy of Xander Ford!

Social Media personality Xander Ford posted a picture of his girlfriend, Gena Mago with their newborn baby boy on December 29. However, the face of their baby is blurred.

“Ready na akong ipakilala ka sa lahat anak ko,” he captioned the post.

Xander, or Marlou Arizala in real life, first announced Gena's pregnancy in September, expressing his excitement and happiness.

“This is my first-time experience, hindi ko alam paano ako maguumpisa pero alam ko masaya ako kasi ito na siya, ilang months na lang malalaman na namin ang gender niya,” he said. Xander also appeared in an episode of Family Feud and when host Dingdong Dantes asked how he has been, he expressed how happy he is for the blessing he received by becoming a dad.

Gena also made an announcement on her Facebook page, giving thanks to the Lord for the two blessings she received from Xander and their baby.

“Ito na po ang baby ko. Anak sobrang worth it ng lahat sobrang cute mo,” she captioned the post.

She added, “Mahal na mahal ka namin ni daddy Xander mo.”

Many netizens have sent their congratulations to the couple, even wishing them luck on their new journey as parents.

However, not all messages and comments are congratulatory as one netizen gave advice to the social media personality to not expose his family to the public.

“Hide your family because it's for the future of your kid because of how the public treats you,” the netizen said.

He added, “I feel bad for your kid getting treated the same.”

Xander, however, responded by saying that he is proud to show the world his family and that it is up to the public how they will respect them.

Gena previously voiced her own concern and pleaded with the public to spare their child from bashing.
