Manny Pacquiao’s money: How the Philippines’ boxing champion turned politician spends his US$220 million fortune
The international boxing champion and his family never shied away from showing off their wealth – but behind fashionista wife Jinkee Pacquiao’s blinging handbag collection and those nine homes, the Pacman is also supporting education and sports in the Philippines
International boxing champion-turned-politician Manny Pacquiao and his family never shied away from showing off their wealth. Being worth more than US$220 million, the Pacquiaos make the most of their fortune – from renting islands for vacations to being gifted luxury couple bicycles. Here’s how one of the Philippines’ most affluent families spends their money.
Properties
As someone who grew up underprivileged, Pacquiao made sure to invest his earnings into something concrete, namely residential properties. The family is known to own at least nine houses, spread locally and internationally. The boxing champ built two mansions in his hometown of General Santos – one being the famous two-storey, seven-bedroom Mediterranean-inspired “Pacman Mansion” that stands on a 2,300-square-metre lot and the other being the contemporary and rustic White House.
The Pacquiaos also frequent their home in Sarangani, which is a modern 14-bedroom beach house that boasts a stellar view of the sands and is located within a protected marine sanctuary in the area.
Fashion
Manny’s wife and resident fashionista, Jinkee Pacquiao, knows how to work luxury fashion items while being a full-time mum. Her style lookbooks are presented on Instagram and she’s not afraid to splurge for her elegant and unique outfits. Her staple pieces include statement belts, lustrous earrings and bracelets and lush handbags.
She has been spotted with limited-edition Hermès bags, such as the Beige Box Vibrato Kelly Sellier 25 (US$19,050), the Kelly Rouge Agathe Crocodile Porosus GHW (US$45,986) and the Birkin Noir Black Crocodile Porosus Lisse in gold (US$71,775). Jinkee also has pieces from Fendi, Louis Vuitton, Moschino and more luxury brands.
