While the Philippines' uber-wealthy don't necessarily talk about their money, we can catch glimpses of their luxurious lifestyles on their Instagram photos and YouTube vlogs. Even still, however, these elusive socialities continue to ignite our curiosity about their lavish ways of living.
Case in point: There's an air of mystique that surrounds heiress Rocio Zobel despite her regular Instagram updates and TikTok videos. After all, who wouldn't want to find out how the youngest daughter of Inigo and Maricris Zobel makes the most out of her family's fortune? If you also want to learn more about this budding it girl, get acquainted with her in our quick breakdown below.
Who is Rocio Zobel?
As a 21-year-old college student, Rocio is one of the youngest members of the illustrious Zobel clan. Unlike most of her family members, she isn't shy to post snippets of her life on social media. A quick scroll through her grid will tell you that similar to most people her age, the young Zobel enjoys beach trips, Instagrammable OOTDs, and nights out with her friends. In particular, she's typically spotted hanging out with fellow heiresses Isabel Elizalde and Alicia Aboitiz.

What Gen Z Socialite Rocio Zobel Spends Her Money On
High society events
Growing up in a clan of business tycoons, Rocio was already exposed to high society events at a young age. Like her older sister Natalia Zobel, Rocio was invited to represent the Philippines at the Le Bal des Débutantes back in 2019. Accompanied by Marty Romualdez, Rocio looked every bit like royalty as made her debut in a stunning ball gown by Jan Taminiau and opulent jewelry by Harakh. Besides the ball, Rocio also attended Natalia and Eduardo Aboitiz’s wedding ceremony and Prada's Spring/Summer 2023 runway presentation.
An international education
In case you don't know, Rocio has already left the nest to study fashion design and photography at New York's Parsons School of Design. The prestigious school's fine arts programs for undergraduate students reportedly cost around P1.6 million per semester, making it one of the most expensive colleges in the whole world! Rocio's no stranger to studying abroad though, as she already began taking some classes in New York and England when she was only 17 years old.
Island getaways
As evidenced by her many vacation outfits on Instagram, Rocio loves to visit the beach! In her down time, the certified island girl treats herself to luxurious vacations abroad and local island getaways. At only 21 years old, Rocio has already explored Mexico, Egypt, France, London, and more dreamy travel destinations.
Designer items
Of course, Rocio's designer wardrobe is nothing short of top notch. The fashion student's closet is brimming with seven-figure picks from Hermès, Prada, Chanel, Valentino, and other luxury bigwigs. Fun fact: She even owns not one, but two Kelly bags, because there's no such thing as too much Hermès, right?
