In a previous interview, Heart expressed her excitement for the completion of their house, where she will be living with her husband Senator Chiz Escudero and his kids, Chessie and Joaquin.
Though Heart’s relationship with her mom entered its rocky phase when she married her husband–her parents did not approve of him at first–the two have reconciled and are now closer than ever.
Just recently, Heart took her mom to an island resort in Balesin for a relaxing beach birthday getaway.

I have two kids from Chiz, so I want to make sure I can settle in with them before I bring in another child,” she emphasized in an interview with GMA News. “I want to make sure Chessie’s walk-in closet, something like that. I want them to feel that they have my full attention first.”
