Matet de Leon or simply Matet (b. October 4, 1983), Ma. Anna Nora Theresa Villamayor in real life, is an adopted child of Superstar Nora Aunor and Christopher de Leon. She made her first movie appearance at age 3, in I Love You Mama, I Love You Papa (1986), starring the whole de Leon clan headed by Nora and Christopher. She caught public attention in her second movie outing, Inday, Inday sa Balitaw, with her impish, playful and mischievous antics. She was best remembered in Bunsong Kerubin, an offshoot of Tessie Agana 50s classic Keruibin, with Susan Roces in 1987 and One Day Isang Araw with FPJ in 1988. She made a temporary farewell to the movies in 1989 to give way to her schooling. In 2000, Matet, now 17, made a comeback in a Mario O’Hara film, Pangako ng Puso and followed this up the following year with Abakada...Ina with Lorna Tolentino. She also appeared in two John Lloyd Cruz- Sarah Geronimo blockbuster movies, A Very Special Love (2008) and You Changed My Life (2009) and an indie film Dalaw (2009). She is now happily married to John Michael Estrada, a former UAAP basketball player and has two lovely daughters.
