Joyce Pring graduates from college after 15 years

Joyce Pring is officially a university degree holder, completing a journey that took her 15 years.

On Instagram, the 32-year-old host and content creator shared she graduated from the University of Perpetual Help System Dalta with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication degree. Joyce graduated Summa Cum Laude and got the Best Thesis award.

The ceremony was held at the Newport Performing Arts Theater in Pasay City. Her husband Juancho Trivino and their kids Alonzo Eliam and Agnes Eleanor were in attendance.

Joyce said in her caption that earning her degree goes beyond her academic life. It was also proof of God’s goodness.

“As I crossed the stage today to claim my diploma, my heart marveled in awe at the goodness of God in my life; this whole experience is truly a testament to His perfect timing, will, and plan for our lives,” Joyce said.

She added that her prize isn’t the academic achievements, but God’s guidance “through every moment that [led] up to this.”

“This diploma isn’t just a piece of paper—it’s a promise kept: a promise of healing, restoration, and newness of life… that in the brokenness and in the mire that my 18 year old self was found, God has weaved the most beautiful story for His glory, and for my good. Seeing it all now that I’m 32 is just an incredible blessing,” she said.

Joyce joins the list of celebrities who continued earning their degrees despite having a showbiz career. —Nika Roque/JCB, GMA Integrated News
