Juan Ponce Enrile Health Status Update: Former Still Alive but ‘May Go Anytime Soon’ — Son Says

Juan Ponce Enrile health status: The 101-year-old former senator remains alive but in critical condition, according to his son. He continues to receive medical care as his family stays with him, monitoring his condition and asking for prayers from the public.

Columnist Ramon Tulfo called out social media users for spreading false claims that former senator Juan Ponce Enrile had passed away. In a Facebook post, Tulfo clarified that Enrile was still alive as of 9 p.m. on Tuesday, citing information from Enrile’s son, Jack. He said the 101-year-old remains confined in an undisclosed hospital, though his condition is fragile and “he may go anytime soon.” Tulfo urged the public to stop sharing unverified reports and to respect the family’s privacy during this critical time.

On Tuesday, Nov. 11, Sen. Jinggoy Estrada announced Enrile’s health status during the Senate floor. Estrada asked Sen. Joel Villanueva to lead the prayer for Enrile.
