In 2014, Hayden Kho was finally sentenced by a Manila court. He was found guilty of immoral conduct, dishonesty, and grossly immoral behavior by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC), which revoked his license to practice medicine. He was also ordered to pay damages to Katrina Halili. However, regarding the videos of other women like Princess Velasco, the legal resolution was murkier. Many victims chose not to come forward publicly to avoid further humiliation. Velasco never filed a separate criminal case, a decision that legal analysts have speculated was a painful choice to preserve whatever remained of her mental peace.
As of 2025, whispers in the entertainment industry suggest a possible "Unplugged" concert series later this year—small theaters, no auto-tune, just her and a guitar. Given the resurgence of 2000s nostalgia on social media, the timing is perfect.
Furthermore, there are rumors of a lifestyle book focused on "Surviving Public Scrutiny with Grace." Given that she is arguably one of the most forgiving and stable figures in showbiz, such a book would be a bestseller.
In the mid-to-late 2000s, the Philippine entertainment and medical industries were rocked by a scandal of monumental proportions. The name Dr. Hayden Kho became synonymous with betrayal and voyeurism, while several high-profile women saw their careers and personal lives thrown into a media firestorm. Among the most tragic and often overlooked names in that saga is that of singer-actress Princess Velasco. Princess Velasco Hayden Kho Scandal
While the public’s memory often fixates on Kho’s former fiancée, Katrina Halili, and other celebrity figures like Maricar Reyes, the involvement of Princess Velasco adds a layer of heartbreak and complexity. This article delves into who Princess Velasco was before the storm, the nature of her relationship with Hayden Kho, the fallout from the leaked videos, and her long road to redemption.
Perhaps the most sensational aspect of the Velasco-Kho angle was the allegation of a staged incident. At the height of the controversy, rumors swirled that Hayden Kho had attempted to end his life, purportedly over the distress caused by the situation with Velasco and Belo.
However, the narrative took a darker turn when Vicki Belo publicly stated her belief that the suicide attempt was fabricated. She alleged that the incident was a ruse designed to manipulate her emotions and salvage the relationship. This accusation painted a picture of a tumultuous triangle defined by deceit, further damaging the reputations of those involved. In 2014, Hayden Kho was finally sentenced by a Manila court
Years have passed since the scandal dominated headlines, and the principal players have largely moved on. Vicki Belo and Hayden Kho eventually reconciled, married, and built a family, projecting an image of redemption and forgiveness. For Princess Velasco, however, the road to normalcy was quieter. She eventually stepped away from the limelight, choosing a life away from the entertainment circus that once consumed her name.
Married to Dr. Hayden Kho Jr.—a man whose own past is marked by public controversy but has since transformed into a respected surgeon and medical vlogger—Princess is fiercely protective of their son, Scout. Her lifestyle content heavily features "slow mornings." She advocates for a screen-free breakfast routine, organic meals, and teaching emotional intelligence to toddlers.
For fans who grew up with her voice as the soundtrack to unrequited love, the question is always: Is she still singing? However, regarding the videos of other women like
The answer is a resounding yes, but on her own terms. Unlike the traditional album-tour cycle of major labels, Princess has embraced the "creator economy." Her entertainment footprint today is largely defined by YouTube and Spotify. She has masterfully transitioned from a contract-bound artist to an independent musician who releases content when it feels right.
Recently, she has been teasing a series of "Quiet Nights" covers—stripped-down versions of OPM classics and modern hits recorded in the living room of her home. For Princess, entertainment is no longer about arena tours; it’s about intimacy. Her Instagram Live sessions, often done while cooking dinner or putting her son to sleep, have become cult events. She harmonizes with her husband, Dr. Hayden Kho Jr., occasionally, showcasing that music is now a family affair rather than a career obligation.
