Mothers speak out on Daniel Padilla and Kaila Estrada romance

But while fans debate the sightings, their mothers, Karla Estrada and Janice de Belen, have offered their own candid perspectives showing that trust and guidance can go hand in hand in parenting celebrity children.

Karla shared with ABS-CBN News that her primary concern is her son’s happiness.

“Kung ano ‘yong nakikita ko sa anak ko na masaya siya, masaya na rin ako bilang nanay niya,” she said.

Though she has met Kaila several times through her close friendship with Janice, Karla believes it’s up to Daniel and Kaila to speak for themselves.

“Nasa edad na kasi sila eh, so manggaling na lang sa kanila dahil ‘di na rin naman ako para manguna. Hayaan na natin. Kung ano ‘yong nakikita natin, masaya na naman tayo pare-pareho,” she explained.

Meanwhile, Janice emphasized the importance of trust as her daughter navigates adulthood.
