'Without fanfare'

The Freeman

|

April 14, 2025

President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. and First Lady Liza Marcos were in Cebu on April 11, 2025, for what appeared to be an unannounced visit.

A photo posted on the first lady's official Facebook page showed a photo of her with Governor Gwen Garcia, 5th district Rep. Duke Frasco, his wife Department of Tourism Sec. Christina Garcia-Frasco, and their three children.

The photo was captioned, “Afternoon bite with Gov Gwen and the Frasco family. Province of Cebu, Philippines | 11 April 2025."

Representative Frasco confirmed to The Freeman that he met with the Marcos couple on Friday, which was the same time that the One Cebu party held its northern Caravan, specifically in Liloan town where the campaign kicked off. The caravan was also attended by some of the administration’s senatorial candidates.

The Freeman reached out to the congressman for confirmation after some netizens claimed it was “fake news” that the President and First Lady were in Cebu that day.
