Atasha Aaron Bonnin Muhlach (Tagalog pronunciation: [ˈmulak]; born November 5, 2001) is a Filipina media personality, television host, and model. She is the daughter of actors, Aga Muhlach and Charlene Gonzales.[1] Muhlach made her showbusiness debut through the noontime show, E.A.T. on September 23, 2023.[2] Currently, she is part of the daily noontime show, Eat Bulaga!.[3]

Personal life[edit]

Muhlach was born to actor Aga Muhlach, and former beauty queen, model and host, Charlene Gonzales, on November 5, 2001. She has a twin brother, Andrés Antonio Muhlach, and an older half-brother, Luigi "Iggy Boy" Muhlach, who is Aga's son with actress Janice de Belen. After graduating high school from the British School Manila, Muhlach went on to attend university at Nottingham Trent University in England, where she took up a business-related course.[4]

Muhlach attended the prestigious Le Bal des Débutantes in November 2022, an annual event in Paris, France, with a select group of 20–25 girls from around the world to raise funds for young women's charities.[5][6]

Months prior to her debut as a host of the noontime show E.A.T., she earned a business degree with honors from Nottingham on July 28, 2023. Muhlach is a fitness enthusiast and athlete, apart from swimming, marathon, basketball, golf, and having played for the under-18 women's national rugby team, she also does wakeboarding, jet skiing, parasailing, and snorkelling.[7]

Career[edit]

Muhlach has appeared on Jollibee commercials since her childhood, featuring her parents and twin brother Andres.[8]

With a showbiz lineage, Muhlach entered the industry after completing business school in Nottingham because her parents encouraged her to focus more on her studies. During her contract signing with Viva Artists Agency in July 2023, she disclosed that her aspiration to join the showbiz industry had been a dream since she was a kid.[9]

Muhlach was introduced as the newest addition to the set of E.A.T. hosts on its September 23, 2023 episode. Before her introduction and performance, hosts Vic Sotto and Joey de Leon described her as "a fashionista, studious, performer, artist, and family-oriented."[10]

On October 25, 2023, Muhlach released her first single, "Pasuyo", under Vicor Music, a record label under Viva Records, which was praised by fans and fellow celebrities for its relatable pop arrangement with composition by Kyle Raphael and produced by JP Verona.[11]

Muhlach has now been part of Eat Bulaga!, the Philippines' longest-running noontime TV program.[3]

Muhlach will be joining her parents and twin brother Andres in an upcoming sitcom—their first-ever acting project as a family—as they officially signed a contract on January 26, 2024, to work on a project in collaboration with MediaQuest Ventures, Cignal, TV5, Viva Films, Studio Viva, and Viva Artists Agency.[12]
