2. Iwa Moto and Jodi Sta. Maria

Three years after she split from Pampi Lacson, with whom she has a son named Thirdy, Jodi Sta. Maria reached out to his current girlfriend Iwa Moto. Just a year before that, news broke of a feud between the two, but all that ended when Jodi tried to patch things up after Iwa gave birth to a daughter in 2013.

Since then, we’ve seen the gorgeous celeb moms share their family’s milestones, like having lunch out together to celebrate Thirdy’s graduation or simply hanging out in each other’s homes. Most recently, they were spotted rooting for Thirdy at his school’s basketball game. So adorbs!

3. Nikka Garcia and Jennylyn Mercado

Homemaker, blogger and mom of two Nikka Garcia first opened up about the start of her friendship with her husband Patrick Garcia’s ex-girlfriend Jennylyn Mercado in a heartfelt, honest blog entry.

“I knew that I was not only going to have to learn how to have a relationship with Jazz, my husband’s son, but I would eventually have to have some kind of relationship my fiance’s former girlfriend, the mother of his child,” she wrote, adding how she has “nothing but respect for Jen because she is the mom of Jazz. I know my place in Jazz’s life. I am and always will be his Tita Nikka who loves and cares for him genuinely.”

Thus began a beautiful co-parenting journey that’s so inspiring!
