Television host Robi Domingo and his wife, Maiqui Pineda, are expecting their first child.
The announcement came on Tuesday, January 6, when Maiqui posted a reel on her Instagram account to coincide with their second wedding anniversary.
In the caption, the couple wrote, “Two years married and now our greatest blessing is on the way. Happy 2nd anniversary. We’re ready to give you all our love.”
The video, featuring footage from September 2025, captures Maiqui revealing a positive pregnancy test to Robi and the couple’s emotional reaction. It also highlights the reactions of celebrity friends, including Donny Pangilinan, Vice Ganda, and Anne Curtis.
Parenthood Through Health Challenges
Robi married Maiqui in January 2024 in a private church ceremony in Bulacan with just close family and friends. Their journey to starting a family wasn’t without challenges. Robi had spoken openly about their dream of having kids and the health issues that made it complicated. Maiqui has dermatomyositis, a rare autoimmune condition affecting her muscles and skin, which she was diagnosed with before they got married.
In October 2024, Robi posted an emotional birthday message expressing his hope of becoming a father someday. While the post drew mixed reactions online, Maiqui later responded with grace, clarifying that they shared the same dream of having a child and trusted in the timing of it all.
Just months later, in December 2024, Maiqui shared another milestone. She announced that she was in clinical remission, calling the news an early Christmas miracle after her doctor confirmed that the symptoms of her condition were barely detectable.
After overcoming health challenges, Robi and Maiqui’s pregnancy news feels extra special, touching the hearts of fans and friends alike.
Congratulations, Robi and Maiqui!
