Bea Borres Welcomes Baby Girl After 44 Days in NICU

Bea Borres shares NICU journey as she welcomes daughter Hopea

Content creator and former child actress Bea Borres has entered a new chapter—motherhood.

On Tuesday, January 27, Bea shared photos on Facebook confirming that she has given birth to a baby girl named Hopea. The announcement came with an emotional update: Hopea spent her first 44 days in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) before finally being cleared to go home.

“If you think I’m strong, my baby Hopea is stronger. She fought harder than I did,” Bea wrote. “After 44 days in the NICU, Pea is finally going home.”

Bea also shared that her daughter was born on December 15.

An Unexpected Journey Into Motherhood

Last year, Bea opened up about her pregnancy, describing it as unexpected and initially overwhelming. In a candid post, she reflected on the emotional process of acceptance—one she said she faced largely on her own at first.

“It’s been days, but this has been a long journey of acceptance ‘cause I was facing it alone at first,” she wrote. “But there’s nothing I want more now than to finally meet my baby.”

She expressed gratitude for the support she received from family and friends, acknowledging how vital a strong support system has been throughout her journey into motherhood.

“I’m one of the lucky few to have such a strong support system,” she added.

Bea also used her platform to speak directly to her younger followers, particularly young women, emphasizing the importance of safety and responsibility.

“I just want to make it clear that being a young mom shouldn’t be normalized,” she shared. “Please always practice being safe. I just really got lucky because I have a great support system.”

Throughout her pregnancy and after giving birth, Bea has chosen to keep details about her child’s father private.

Who Is Bea Borres?

Bea Borres rose to prominence as part of the hit ABS-CBN afternoon series Kadenang Ginto, alongside Andrea Brillantes and Francine Diaz. Despite early success in showbiz, Bea later stepped back from acting to focus on her education.

In a July interview with ABS-CBN, she explained her decision: “I promised my parents kasi na I will graduate, so uunahin ko muna ‘yung pag-graduate.”

While away from television, Bea remained active in the digital space, building a loyal online following and collaborating with various brands—ultimately carving out her own identity as a content creator.

Now, as she embraces motherhood, Bea continues to share her story with honesty and vulnerability, offering a reminder of the strength, support, and resilience that modern parenting often requires.
