Jenny Robinson Syquia-Skarne (born November 2, 1967) is a Filipina-American Swedish model, actress and fashion designer.
Syquia was born into the historically prominent Syquia family of the Philippines. Among the family’s notable properties are the Syquia Mansion in Vigan, a 19th-century bahay na bato recognized as a historical landmark, and the Syquia Apartments (also known as Syquia Towers) in Manila, which were among the tallest residential buildings in the Philippines when completed in the 1950s and among the first to feature elevators and private car parking.[1]
In June 1993, after a whirlwind courtship, Syquia married multi-award-winning actor Gabby Concepcion in Las Vegas. She became the stepmother to KC Concepcion (Gabby’s daughter with his ex-wife, Philippine actress Sharon Cuneta). On August 17, 1994 Syquia gave birth to her first daughter, [Cloie Syquia Skarne (better known by her stage name, Cloie Concepcion)[2] (who would go on to become a TV host and performer in the Philippines in addition to winning the Miss Earth Sweden title in 2016). The marriage between Concepcion and Syquia was annulled in 1996.
In 1997, Syquia married Filip Skarne. He legally adopted the two-year-old Cloie. She has a second daughter, Filippa Babes with Skarne.
