Early life[edit]
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]

Education[edit]
Delavin attended Jose Zurbito Sr. Elementary School and completed her secondary
education in Masbate National Comprehensive High School. She went to De La Salle
University and took up a degree in Bachelor of Science in Accountancy. In 2016, she
filed a leave of absence to venture on a career in show business. In 2019, she
continues her college degree at the same said school. [citation needed]

cameo role in the 2015 teleserye Pangako Sa 'Yo.

celebrities in the Philippines.[6][7]

in Music Museum.
In November 2019, Delavin left Star Magic and signed with APT Entertainment and
