Carlo Jose Liwanag Aquino (born September 3, 1985) is a Filipino actor and musician known for being the lead singer of the band Kollide and formerly of JCS with John Prats and Stefano Mori. Aquino achieved critical recognition for his performance in the 1998 film Bata, Bata… Pa'no Ka Ginawa? with veteran actress Vilma Santos based on the award-winning novel by Lualhati Bautista.

Career

Aquino started his show business career as a child actor and rose to popularity as a teen actor during the late 1990s and early 2000s. Formerly an exclusive contract star of ABS-CBN's Star Magic, he also appeared in some shows of rival station GMA Network as a contract artist under GMA Artist Center. As of 2012, he exclusively worked for ABS-CBN again. He is one of the major characters in the TV series Exes Baggage.

Personal life

Aquino dated former on-screen love team Angelica Panganiban during their teens and remained friends after their break-up. He previously dated Camille Prats and Maja Salvador. In 2018, Aquino and Panganiban teamed up again on-screen. In 2023 Charlie Dizon confirmed she was in a relationship with Carlo.[1]
