Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition host Robi Domingo and his wife, Maiqui Pineda, have welcomed the newest addition to their family.
On Instagram, Robi shared a video from the hospital, greeting viewers with, “Hi guys, welcome to the outside world.”
He then showed Maiqui resting in her hospital bed while cradling their newborn baby.
Robi captioned the post, “Our newest housemate,” a nod to his long-running association with Pinoy Big Brother. Playing in the background was the show's theme song, “Pinoy Ako” by Orange and Lemons.
The comments section was quickly flooded with congratulatory messages from friends and fellow celebrities, including PBB co-hosts Gabbi Garcia, Kim Chiu, Alexa Ilacad, and Luis Manzano.
“Congratulations, you guys!!!” Gabbi wrote.
“OHMYGOD!!!!!!!” Alexa commented, along with crying and sparkling heart emojis.
“Congratulations Robi and Maiqs,” Kim added.
Maja Salvador and her husband, Rambo Nuñez, also sent their well wishes, with Rambo saying he looks forward to meeting the couple's baby.
Robi and Maiqui received what they described as the best gift for their second wedding anniversary when they learned they were expecting their first child. The couple announced the pregnancy in January through a Facebook video.
In the clip, Maiqui was seen holding a pregnancy test in the bathroom while Robi waited outside. She later showed him the result, prompting Robi to ask what it meant.
“Well, it's two lines,” Maiqui replied.
At first, Robi could hardly believe the news. He soon realized what it meant and became emotional. The couple then showed the pregnancy test on camera, confirming that they were expecting.
“Two years married… and now our greatest blessing is on the way. Happy 2nd anniversary! We're ready to give you all our love…” Robi wrote in the caption of his announcement post.
