It is no doubt that Coco Martin is one of the most sought-after celebrities of his generation.



The actor stars the high-rating ABS-CBN teleserye “Ang Probinsyano” as well as an upcoming movie for the Metro Manila Film Festival.

His determination to excel in his craft has given him numerous citations and accolades, including a Gawad Urian award, and a KBP Golden Dove award.

Much has happened since the debut of his career in 2000 but he continues to remain humble in spite of the multiple achievements.

Martin attributes his success to people who supported him and to his deep devotion to the Black Nazarene.

Here are some of the things that make the actor feel truly blessed:

1. Opportunity to give back to family

The “Prime Time King” admits he is not the man that he is today without the support of his family, especially his grandmother Matilde. One way he gave back to his family was by treating them to a trip to Europe last year.

“Ngayon po, natutuwa ako na dahan-dahan ko nang natutupad ang mga pangarap ko,” he said.

“Isa-isa ko na naisasama ang mga pamilya ko dito sa abroad para makita rin po nila ang mga bagay na napupuntahan ko,” he added.

He shared that they roamed the scenic spots in Italy, particularly churches where they had a chance to offer gratitude for the blessings they have received.

2. Affection from friends

Aside from his family, the 37-year-old actor is also grateful for his friends for their unceasing support and affection for him.

Just recently, Martin received a birthday surprise from people behind his hit television series. Among those present during the party were Angel Aquino, Eddie Garcia, Albert Martinez, Susan Roces, and Yassi Pressman.

“Sana mas gamitin Mo pa ako upang maibalik ko naman sa aking kapwa ang lahat ng blessing na ipinagkaloob Ninyo sa akin,” the Kapamilya actor said as he attributed the blessings he receives to his deep faith.

3. Chance to entertain

An opportunity to amuse millions of Filipinos worldwide is a duty that artists take seriously. Martin considers it a blessing to play a lead role on a hit teleserye, and for him to effectively do it, a hectic day must be started with the right meal.

Martin commences his day by eating a hearty and healthy meal as a quick boost for an activity-packed day.

For Martin, Argentina Corned Beef, which is fortified with zinc and iron, can power him up through the day. The easy-to-serve breakfast comes in three variants: Hot and Spicy, Extra Long Shreds, and Chunky.
