🌴 THE ‘MADAM CLAUDIA’ FORTUNE! 🌴 Angelica Panganiban’s Million-Peso Farm Dream Saved by Husband Greg Homan—And the Secret Pain Behind Her New Life!
Angelica Panganiban, the acclaimed actress and now devoted wife and mother, has revealed the stunning reality behind her idyllic life on a one-hectare property in Tanauan, Batangas. This “little paradise,” named “Ebella’s Farm” after her late adoptive mother, is the physical manifestation of her success from the hit series Pangako Sa ‘Yo (The Promise To You)—a show that provided the initial capital.
However, the journey to pastoral bliss was shadowed by potential disaster and a secret physical agony. Angelica was on the verge of selling the massive, neglected land until her husband, Greg Homan, intervened, transforming the wilderness into their sanctuary. This is the dramatic investigation into the actress’s multi-million-peso farm, the healing of her shattered hip, and the enduring grief that defines her beautiful new life.
The Farm Rescue: Greg Homan’s Yacht-Builder Ingenuity
Angelica acquired the one-hectare property—her largest investment to date—over a decade ago. It was a chaotic, overgrown landscape of trees and grass, and during the pandemic, it fell into complete disrepair. Admitting she was clueless about farm development, Angelica had decided the land was a wasted asset and was preparing to sell it off.
Enter Greg Homan, her now-husband. Greg, whose professional background includes yacht building, recognized the property’s untapped potential. He urged Angelica to keep the land, promising he would manage the transformation.
“Greg took action to install divisions and walls in their land… Slowly, the purely forested and grassy lot in Batangas began to take on a new look.”
Using his construction and design expertise, Greg masterminded the development, turning the overwhelming acreage into a structured, decent property. Angelica is eternally grateful, recognizing that without Greg, her dream of a family getaway—a quiet, simple escape from the chaos of Manila—would have been lost.
The farm now features chickens, ducks, pigs, and future plans for guavas, lanzones, and rambutan, embracing a sustainable, simple countryside life, despite the current rough access and the fact that the family is still living temporarily in a fully-equipped rugged off-road hauler RV camper van (which Greg personally flew to China to retrieve!).
The Secret Physical Agony: Avascular Necrosis
Angelica’s picture-perfect farm life and return to acting masks a terrifying medical crisis that she endured for years: Avascular Necrosis (AVN)—the death of bone tissue in her hip—diagnosed while she was pregnant with her daughter, Amila.
The pain was so severe that she had to rely on painkillers to get through her wedding ceremony in Siargao in April 2024, refusing to let the agony ruin the beautiful occasion.
The initial attempts to fix the problem failed: a cord decompression surgery in July 2024 brought no relief. Seeking a second opinion, Angelica finally found a doctor who agreed to the necessary, drastic measure: hip replacement surgery.
“It was only then that Angge understood it was best to seek the opinion of [multiple] doctors before making a final decision.”
The surgery was performed on October 9, 2024. After months of intense therapy, Angelica’s hip is finally returning to normal, allowing her to walk, exercise, and return to the work she loves—acting. Her new hip represents a new lease on life, freeing her from years of agonizing chronic pain.
The Healing Landscape: Grief and Amila’s Second Birthday
The farm, officially named “Ebella’s Farm” after her adoptive mother who passed away in August 2024 at age 61, is not just an investment; it is a center for healing and remembrance.
Angelica is still grappling with the heavy loss of her mother, a woman who raised her despite the difficult revelation that she was adopted. The farm serves as a symbolic space where her mother is still included: “The farm is named after Mama so it’s like she is still with us.”
The farm was the backdrop for her daughter Amila’s second birthday celebration in 2024. In a profound blend of sorrow and celebration, the farm provided a peaceful, beautiful environment for the family to navigate their grief while celebrating new life.
The Perfect Match: Finding the “Forever” Family
Angelica’s current state—healthy, happy, and living her dream—is directly linked to her meeting Greg Homan, thanks to their friend, Cherry Pie Picache. Having grown up without her biological parents, Angelica always longed for a complete family.
She never expected to find a man who was so perfectly aligned with her own mindset and life goals.
“She didn’t expect that she would meet a man who had the same mindset as her… Almost everything they wanted to do in life was the same.”
Greg’s respect for her career—allowing her to return to acting, which is her “passion”—and his hands-on approach to building their home and life together confirms that Angelica has finally found the stability, peace, and unconditional love she desperately sought.
The story of Angelica Panganiban is a powerful narrative of redemption: overcoming physical agony and financial anxiety, healing from deep familial grief, and finally building the complete, peaceful family life she always deserved, all thanks to the unwavering support and structural integrity provided by her husband, Greg.
