Early and personal life
Randy Santiago was born on November 26, 1960 to Cielito (Legaspi) and Pablo Santiago. He has three brothers: Raymart, Rowell, and Reily Pablo Jr.

When he was in second grade, a cyst appeared on the upper part on his left eye. He successfully underwent an operation, only for the cyst to appear again. A nerve allowing his left eye to open was accidentally cut by his doctor, and his left eye became half-open afterwards. He wasn't bullied in school, and his classmates treated him nicely, despite not wearing shades as a child. All of this information about his left eye that led him to wearing shades was all according to him in a July 2017 interview in Magandang Buhay, an ABS-CBN Entertainment-produced program, having denied rumors that he damaged his left eye in a motorcycle accident.

He graduated from De La Salle University in Iloilo City, Iloilo Province, Visayas, Philippines.

Randy is married to Marilou Coronel and have three children: Raphael (born 1991), Ryan (1993–August 2017) and Raiko (born 2002).
