Delavin, who hails from Masbate, is the daughter of an affluent family that considers her a miracle baby.

In a recent interview with Push, Delavin recalled the life-threatening disease that almost killed her when she was 6.

"Iyong pinakamalaking miracle is, sabi ng doctor, kasi prinesent niya iyong case ko sa buong hospital kasi first case na nag-survive ng 100% parang walang nangyari,” Delavin recalled.
