Frederick Charles Caballes Davao, professionally known as Ricky Davao (born May 30, 1961), is a Filipino actor, television director [3] and industrial management engineer (graduated from Mapua Institute of Technology). [4] He is the ex-husband of actress Jackie Lou Blanco. [5] He is the younger brother of Bing Davao [6] and the son of Charlie Davao. [7]
He started in show business as a dancer, long before he began acting, as a member of the Vicor Crowd. He considers dancing as his first love. [8] In theatre, he is best known for portraying a fictionalized version of Bongbong Marcos in the play Bongbong at Kris in the 1980s. [9]
He served as a juror in the first ASEAN International Film Festival Awards in 2013, [10] and he performed in the Pinoy Playlist Music Festival 2019. [11]
The relationship between Davao and his wife, Jackie Lou Blanco, started to blossom when Blanco stood in for Snooky Cerna in the erstwhile GMA Supershow . Davao was supposed to sing to Snooky but because the latter failed to appear, Blanco was pulled in to replace her. [5] They got married in 1989 and had three children, Kenneth, Rikki Mae, and Arabella. They have since separated but remain cordial to each other. In 2021, they reunited on-screen via drama anthology, I Can See You: AlterNate, where they acted as husband and wife. [12]
Davao ran for councilor in the 4th district of Quezon City in the 2010 elections under the Nationalist People's Coalition (NPC). [13] Ricky withdrew later on due to conflict of interest. A COMELEC rule prohibits actor-candidates from appearing in movies and TV shows during the campaign period. Davao was part of the cast of Working Girls, a movie which was set to open on April 21, 2010, which was within the campaign period. [14]
