6. Isabel Oli-Prats
Celebrity mom Isabel Oli proudly shared how awesome her “supermom” Veronica is.
“Why do I call her that? Well, many of you don’t know that I’m the youngest of 7. Do you know how hard it is to raise all of us? I mean raising 1 child is pretty challenging. How much more with 7? We grew up with no helper and yaya,” recounted Isabel. “She basically did everything – from household chores, sending us to school and tutoring us after, cooking our meals, washing and ironing our clothes, sending us to bed, the list can go on. She taught me everything like how to distinguish right from wrong, how to love and not hate, how to forgive people when they hurt you, who is God, etc.”
She also shared how their mom instilled a strong faith in her and her siblings, which she still continues to encourage to this day.
“Even if I’m married now, I still long for her care and love,” continued Isabel. “Not a day goes by that I dont miss or think of her. That’s why I always video chat her or call her just to show her how much I miss and love her. I am what I am now because of her. Biggest thanks and hug to my beautiful Momma.”
