Jovit rose to fame as the first grand winner of ABS-CBN's nationwide talent-reality show “Pilipinas Got Talent” in 2010.

“Masakit sa loob namin pero kailangang ipasa-Diyos namin ito,“ Hilario Baldivino, Jovit’s father, told ABS-CBN News. “Mahal na mahal ko anak ko pero mayron din tayong Panginoon kaya kailangan tanggapin natin.”

The Baldivino patriarch related that Jovit had a mild stroke last November 22.

Jovit was treated for five days in a Batangas hospital after which he recovered at their family home. Last weekend he was invited to perform in a Christmas party in Batangas City where he suffered yet another stroke.

Jovit was a teenager selling siomai in Batangas when he joined “Pilipinas Got Talent” ion 2010. Even then he was already a YouTube sensation with his rendition of Journey’s “Faithfully”.

The Baldivino family is finalizing wake arrangements for Jovit at their home in Rosario, Batangas.
