The Filipina Movie Actress was born in Cebu City, Philippines on July 24, 1987. She is known as Philippine showbiz’s “Chinita Princess” and was once hailed “Princess of Philippine Movies and TV” for three consecutive years in the Philippines. She is currently managed and under contract to Star Magic, ABS-CBN’s home-based talent agency, and is referred to as the “Queen of the Dance Floor”
Kim Chiu is the fourth of five children to William Chiu, a Chinese businessman from Mindoro and Louella (née Yap; 1963–2013), a Philippine Sangley native who migrated from Dinagat Islands to Surigao del Sur, Philippines. She is fluent in Cebuano, Tagalog, English, with Waray, Hokkien, and Mandarin Chinese beginner level only.
Since her parent’s separation in 1998, Kim had a dysfunctional relationship with both of her parents. She and her siblings were raised by their paternal grandmother and, as children, frequently moved residencies in the Philippine Visayas; located in Tacloban, Leyte, Cebu, Cagayan de Oro, General Santos City, Mindoro, and back to Cebu City until 2006.
In 2013, she reconciled with her father “after five years of estrangement” while visiting his second partner and half-siblings in San Jose, Occidental Mindoro. A month later in June, her biological mother, Louella, fell into a coma. Following a week of hospitalization, Louella died on June 23, 2013, due to a brain aneurysm. In a eulogy dedicated to her mother, she debunked rumors of animosity over her mother’s child abandonment and expressed: “An angel guides me in my decisions in life. For me, that is finally my mom.”
