While you are fascinated with the Queen Of Tears heiress, here is the list of the richest female heirs in the Philippines!
When the heiress played by Kim Ji Won is causing a storm in Asia in the movie Queen Of Tears. Here is a rather interesting list of the richest female heirs in the Philippines:
1. CAMILLE VILLAR
Camille Villar is the youngest and only daughter of former Senate President Manuel “Manny” Villar and Senator Cynthia Villar.
Manny Villar ranks as the second richest in the Philippines, with a net worth of $7.8 billion grown primarily from his real-estate business.
Camille is a graduate of Bachelor of Science in Management from the Ateneo de Manila University.
She obtained her Masters of Business Administration (MBA) from the esteemed Institution de Estudios Superiores de la Eprese (IESE) in Barcelona, Spain.
The unica hija of the Villars has followed in her parents’ entrepreneurial and political footsteps.
She is on her second consecutive term as the representative for the lone district of Las Piñas City.
In 2021, she was elected as one of the deputy speakers of the House of Representatives.
Among the bills she has filed in Congress is an act that requires entrepreneurship to be included as a separate subject in the K-12 program curricula.
Her other bills focus on women’s health; micro, small, and medium entrepreneurs; and children’s welfare.
Late last year, the congresswoman was named Government Hero of the Year by the Stevie Awards for Women in Business in Las Vegas, USA.
She was hailed for her COVID-19 response, particularly for the program “May Bahay Sa Bakuna,” which raffled off a house and lot. She established the incentives campaign to encourage her constituents to get vaccinated.
On the business front, Camille sits as the president and CEO of AllValue, the family’s retail corporation that includes home stores, supermarkets, and food establishments.
According to her official website, she is also a director in Starmalls Inc., Golden Bria Holdings Inc., and Vista Land & Lifescapes Inc.
Camille dipped her toes in showbiz as well, which probably gave her the impetus to file House Resolution 451.
This bill aims to increase the incentives and assistance the government gives to the country’s contenders for the Best International Film category of the Oscars.
She was one of Willie Revillame’s co-hosts on Wil Time Bigtime from 2012 to 2013 and on Wowowillie in 2013.

She empowers local brands. In September 2022, Katrina spoke at the Forbes Global CEO Conference in Singapore about her advocacy championing Pinoy entrepreneurs.
At the age of 16, Katrina also started a music career using the screen name DJ Katsu.
Her love for music, arts, and culture is evident in her being a producer of Wonderfruit Festival, a premium sustainable lifestyle festival held in Thailand.
A neurocentric yoga devotee, she puts in two hours daily for the practice and films yoga videos for her YouTube channel.
Her posts on Instagram show Katrina’s love for travel, nature, and wildlife.
In 2020, she climbed to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa at 19,341 feet above sea level.
More than just an adventure, her Kilimanjaro climb had the purpose of raising funds for nature conservation projects in Asia and Africa.
Most recently, Katrina held a wildlife photo exhibit at the Awethentic Gallery in Singapore and donated the proceeds of the exhibit to the African Parks Network.
