AJ’s Future Plans
AJ is set to attend Widney College in Los Angeles, California later this year. Ruby and her family moved to the U.S. in 2021 to support AJ’s medical treatment for a rare autoimmune disease. AJ has an intellectual disability and Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP), a condition that can cause chronic attacks and potential damage to internal organs, particularly the kidneys.

Ruby currently works at the Philippine Consulate General in Los Angeles and was recognized by the Gawad Amerika Foundation in 2021. She has reunited with fellow artists in the U.S., including Alden Richards, Michelle Dee, Ice Seguerra, Tom Rodriguez, and Jaya.
