Early life
editAlthough Sparkle's artist profile for Guardian describes her as "Fil-Israeli",[5] some interviews describe her as half-Palestinian or Filipino-Palestinian.[6][7]
Career
editIn 2024, Guardian was included in GMA's Sparkle 10, a group of rising young actresses from the network. After small roles in shows such as Mano Po Legacy: The Flower Sisters, Guardian landed a major role as one of the Sang'gres in the Encantadia spin-off, Encantadia Chronicles: Sang'gre (2024).[8] Her character, Deia, is named after Iza Calzado's daughter, with Calzado's permission. Calzado, who portrayed Amihan in the original series, wished Guardian good luck on social media, writing "Avisala, Sang’gre Deia! Alagaan mo ang brilyante natin (Take care of the precious crystal)." She described Guardian as "kind", "sincere", and "level headed".[9]
Personal life
editGuardian supports Palestinian liberation. She has shared an image describing Israel as an "occupation" and an "apartheid state", but clarified that she does not support Hamas.[10][11]
