Aside from Thia, Vic and Luna also have an older daughter named Tali. Tali turned seven last November.

Vic has been embroiled in an ongoing legal battle with filmmaker Darryl Yap, whom the veteran TV host sued for cyber libel. Vic lodged the complaint after his name was mentioned as an alleged rapist of the late 1980s sexy star Pepsi Paloma in the teaser of Yap’s upcoming film.
