Filipina actress Gela Atayde recently opened up about a funny-yet-embarrassing incident involving her mom, veteran actress Sylvia Sanchez, during a trip abroad — and the internet can’t get enough of it!
In a candid and lighthearted interview, Gela recalled how one simple “mom moment” in public left her absolutely mortified — and proved that Filipino moms will be Filipino moms no matter where in the world they are!
🤦♀️ “MOM, PLEASE!” — GELA COULDN’T HIDE HER EMBARRASSMENT
According to Gela, the unforgettable moment happened while they were shopping in a high-end store in Europe. Out of nowhere, Sylvia suddenly shouted across the store in Tagalog, calling her daughter as if they were in a local wet market.
“The whole place was so quiet and classy — and then all of a sudden I hear, ‘HOY, GELA!’ I swear, I wanted the floor to swallow me!” Gela said with laughter.
To make things even more awkward, Sylvia started bragging about Gela to the foreign staff, loudly telling them that she’s a “famous actress in the Philippines,” even though most of them didn’t understand a word!
“I was just standing there, wishing I could be invisible while she proudly introduced me,” Gela added.
😂 NETIZENS: “TOTALLY RELATABLE!”
The story quickly spread across social media, with fans reacting with amusement and affection:
“That is so my mom too. Proud in every country, language barrier or not!”
“Filipino moms don’t care — they will hype you up anywhere!”
“Cringe but heartwarming. That’s real love.”
💖 SYLVIA SANCHEZ: PROUD MOM MODE, ALWAYS ON
While the moment might’ve been embarrassing for Gela, netizens admired Sylvia’s unfiltered love and pride for her daughter. Even miles away from home, her support and enthusiasm never wavered.
“It’s embarrassing, yes, but it’s also kinda sweet knowing your mom’s that proud of you,” Gela admitted with a smile.
In the end, what might have been a cringeworthy moment turned into a hilarious memory that mother and daughter — and now the whole country — can laugh about together.
Because no matter where you go, a Filipino mom will always be your biggest fan — loudly and unapologetically! ❤️
