Cielito "Honeylet" Salvador Avanceña (born February 17, 1970[1]) is a Filipina businesswoman who is the domestic partner of Rodrigo Duterte, the 16th President of the Philippines (in office 2016–2022).[2] Avanceña and Duterte have been in a relationship since as early as 1996 and have a daughter together. Although she was de facto spouse of the president of the Philippines, she was not designated as First Lady during Duterte's presidency. Nonetheless, she served the duties of First Lady during state banquets.

Biography

Avanceña first met Rodrigo Duterte shortly after she participated in the 1988 Mutya ng Dabaw pageant where she finished as first runner-up.[3] Avanceña worked as a nurse in the United States for four years.[4] She returned to Davao shortly after her daughter Veronica was born in 2004.[5]

She joined her partner's presidential campaign in Luzon during the run-up to the 2016 elections.[5]

Prior to Duterte's presidency, Avanceña ran several businesses in Davao: a meat shop, a canteen catering service, and 11 Mister Donut franchises.[5]

Role in Duterte's presidency

Shortly after the inauguration of her partner as president, Avanceña was not named as First Lady. Her stepdaughter Sara was proposed to fulfill the role instead[6] but declined the offer.[7][8]

Avanceña nevertheless fulfilled roles usually conducted by the First Lady, notably during the state visit of Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe and the 30th ASEAN Summit in 2017.[9]
