Early life
Kisses Delavin came from a prominent family in Masbate City involved in various businesses such as hotels and trading. Kisses is of Filipino, Spanish and Chinese descent. Her father, Gilbert Delavin is originally from San Fernando, Masbate while her mother, Carrie Delavin (née Tan) is from Legazpi, Albay. Her mother conceived eight times and she was the only one who survived. Her family moved from Quezon City to Masbate shortly after her birth. At age 6, she was stricken with viral encephalitis. She fell into a coma but miraculously recovered after 24 hours without any lifelong damage.[1]
