Ces Drilon and son Andre on his coming out as bisexual, androgyny and love


When Andre Drilon came out as bisexual to his mother Ces Drilon last year, they were in a ramen house in the middle of dinner. Ces, who had never before run out of follow-up questions in all her years as a broadcast journalist and news anchor, was a little shocked and could only manage, ““Really? Okay…” and they proceeded to talk about other things.

In retrospect, she says, “I never knew that he had an identity crisis. He just told me out of the blue. ‘Mom, I’m bisexual.’” Then she adds with a laugh, “Di ko na alam ang sasabihin ko. I should have engaged him, I should have asked, ‘Do you know about condoms?’”
