Janine Patricia "Tricia" Gerona Robredo (born July 18, 1994) is a Filipino physician and former courtside reporter for the National University Bulldogs in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP).
Biography
[edit]Tricia Robredo is the second daughter of former interior secretary Jesse Robredo (1958–2012) and former vice president Leni Robredo.[1][2][3]
While studying at National University (NU) for college, Robredo joined the UAAP coverage team of ABS-CBN Sports in 2013 as a courtside reporter.[4] She said that her sideline gig was for her late father, an avid basketball fan, who died in a plane crash the previous year. Her mother said that Tricia was the most affected by his death.[5] She stayed as a courtside reporter until 2014,[1] when the NU basketball team won the championship.[6]
Robredo later studied at the Ateneo School of Medicine and Public Health from 2014 while continuing to report for the NU Bulldogs.[6][7][8] She received her medical degree and an MBA in 2020.[9][10][11][12] She also passed the licensure medical examination that same year.[13]
While campaigning for her mother in 2022, Tricia Robredo led a campaign sortie called ‘Angatleta sa Araneta’ at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City,[14] which was attended by athletes, especially former UAAP volleyball players who endorsed her mother for president.[15]
During the campaign, Robredo and her older sister Aika asked the National Bureau of Investigation to conduct a probe against those who spread fake lewd photos of them.[16]
