Badoy-Partosa was also Undersecretary of the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO)[9] and Assistant Secretary of the Department of Social Welfare and Development.[10] She is the half-sister of advocacy leader and educator Gang Badoy[11] and the niece of former Cotabato City Mayor Ludovico Badoy.[12]

Legal cases
Civil complaints seeking ₱2 million in damages have been filed against Badoy-Partosa by activist Carol Araullo[14] and separately by her son, journalist Atom Araullo,[15] for Badoy-Partosa's repeated red-tagging of them in public. Atom Araullo decided not to file libel charges on Badoy-Partosa as he is against the criminalization of libel, which is used to harass legitimate media in the Philippines.[15]
