“MOM, I’LL BE STRONG” – ICE SEGUERRA MOURNS THE LOSS OF HIS BELOVED MOTHER, MOMMY CARING, WHO PASSED AWAY AT 84

June 27, 2025 – Manila

This morning, the Philippine entertainment industry was struck with sorrow upon hearing the heartbreaking news that Caridad “Mommy Caring” Yamson-Seguerra, the beloved mother of artist Ice Seguerra, has passed away at the age of 84.

The news was confirmed through a deeply emotional post by Ice on his Instagram account at 7:54 AM. In the message, Ice poured out his grief over losing the woman he described as “his mother, first teacher, constant cheerleader, and the unwavering foundation of his life.”

“From the time I was little until now, she never left my side. Every performance, every gig, every milestone—she was always there,” Ice wrote tearfully.

A Mother Full of Love and Sacrifice

Mommy Caring was more than a mother—she was a friend, a protector, and Ice’s biggest fan. Even when her children became adults and lived separate lives, she continued to send his favorite meals, give him massages when he had headaches, and constantly showed her unconditional love.

Ice recalled:

“She supported me not just as an artist, but as her child. She was my fiercest protector. She accepted me and loved me—especially the parts of me I couldn’t even love myself.”

She inspired Ice to become the strong person he is today. And though the loss is immeasurable, Ice made a heartfelt promise:

“I promise you, Mama—I’ll be brave. You were the one who taught me how to be strong in the face of life’s pain. I won’t fail you.”

A Testament to Motherly Love

Mommy Caring’s passing is not only a personal loss for Ice but for all those who knew and loved her. She was admired not only as a mother but as a woman who selflessly dedicated her life to her children. Fellow artists, fans, and friends have sent their condolences and praised the unbreakable bond between mother and son.

Reunited With Her Late Husband

Mommy Caring is now reunited with her husband, Decoroso Seguerra, who passed away in 2020 after a battle with cancer. For Ice and his family, the thought that his parents are together again brings a measure of peace amidst overwhelming grief.

Funeral Details To Be Announced

The family will share details of the wake later today. Ice kindly asks for continued prayers, love, and support for their family—especially for his beloved Mama.

“Thank you, Mom, for your boundless love. I will love you forever, my Mama,” Ice said.

A heartbreaking news greeted everyone this Friday, June 27, 2025, after Ice Seguerra shared on social media the passing of his beloved mother, Mommy Karing. In an emotional and heartfelt post on Instagram, Ice expressed his deep sorrow over the loss of the woman he considered the light, guide, and pillar of his life.

The photo showed Ice together with his sibling and Lisa Dino embracing Mommy Karing while she was still alive. According to Ice, Mommy Karing was not just a mother but his biggest supporter and protector from childhood until now. She was always there at every concert, every show, and every success he achieved.

Even as they got older, Mommy Karing never failed to show her love—from sending his favorite food to caring for him when he was sick.

“She supported me not just as an artist but as her child. She was my fiercest protector. She accepted me and embraced me for who I am, especially who I am not.”

Ice added,

“This morning at 7:54 a.m., our family said goodbye to the most amazing woman I’ve ever known—my mom, Mommy Karing. Mama lived a full and beautiful life. She was strong, kind, funny in her own quiet way, and always, always there.
From when I was little until now, she never left my side. Every show, every gig, every milestone—she was there. She was always present.
She would send me my favorite food. Give me massages when I had headaches. She made sure she was there. Even though we already had our own lives, she never missed a beat.
She supported me not just as an artist but as her child. She was my fiercest protector. She accepted me and embraced me for who I am, especially who I am not.
She was my first teacher, my constant cheerleader, my rock. Losing her this morning feels like losing a part of myself.

But I promise you, Mama—I will be brave. You taught me how to be strong in the face of life’s pain. I won’t fail you. That’s my promise.”

Mommy Karing is survived by Ice and his brother Juan Carlos Miguel. Ice said that the details of the wake would be shared later. For now, he simply asked for prayers and love for their family, and most of all, for his beloved mama.

“Thank you to everyone who was part of her life. Thank you to everyone who loved her and treated her like a mother. You all made her very happy.
We miss you forever, Mama. But now you’re with Daddy again, and that gives me comfort. I love you so much, my mama.”

This was Ice’s full message.

Mommy Karing passed away at the age of 84. While Ice did not go into detail about the cause of death, reports say it was due to complications from her illnesses, brought on by age.

It can be recalled that last year, Ice asked for prayers for his mother’s health on her birthday. Her passing feels like the loss of a part of himself, but Ice holds on to the promise he made to his mama—to be strong and never give up.

Following his post, messages of condolences poured in from fans and friends in the industry. Several personalities who expressed their sympathies said they could feel the deep love between mother and child and praised Ice’s strength as a son.

The passing of Mommy Karing is a great loss not only to Ice but also to all who knew and loved her. She was a model mother who dedicated her entire life to her children. Now, she is reunited with Ice’s late father, which brings a bit of comfort to the grieving family.
