From the moment Dato' Jovian Mandagie and Datin Nina Ismail Sabri tied the knot, we knew the dynamic duo, who have already established themselves as Generation T Listers, would be in running the race for ‘World’s Best Parents’, if ever there was such an award. Both openly adore children – A big part of Nina’s life is vested in Peterana Kindergarten, an integrated learning centre she co-founded in 2013. Jovian, too, is a magnet to the children of his family and friends.
“Children are sincere and affectionate. Having them around is a true joy for me,” Nina was quoted once, in interview we did for her January 2016 cover story.
On November 1, 2017, Jovian and Nina were blessed with the arrival of their first baby, a daughter named Jeanelle Nika Mandagie, who marks a happy new chapter in their household. To celebrate this new milestone, we shine the Couple Spotlight on their heartwarming love story.
