“You know what my hidden talent is? I can burp loudly,” Marion Caunter reveals when asked about her special skill. It’s a revelation that would catch many off guard, especially considering her perfectly fashionable and elegant appearance on Instagram feeds. But it’s precisely these unexpected quirks that are endearing about Marion, effortlessly putting others at ease during initial interactions. She exudes a natural warmth and confidence that instantly makes you feel like old friends.

“I constantly remind myself that the way I treat people today will shape how my children treat others in the future,” she shares. “So, I choose to be a nice and empathetic person whenever possible. I love making people feel at ease when they talk to me.”

Caunter, who has come a long way since her poised and charismatic presence from her E! News Asia days, is at the top of her game — holding court as a style icon, beauty entrepreneur and dedicated mother of three.
