Angelina Cruz, the eldest daughter Sunshine Cruz and Cesar Montano, has bought her first car at 22.

In an Instagram Story post, Sunshine expressed how proud she is of Angelina for the milestone. 

"[Nakaka-proud] ka anak!" Sunshine wrote. "Congratulations on your new baby!"

She also shared on Instagram photos and clips from when she and her daughters picked up Angelina’s new car.

“Yesterday,” she wrote, alongside a heart emoji.

Angelina is a recording artist, vlogger, and model. She celebrated her 22nd birthday last Sunday, September 24. 

Earlier, Sunshine shared her heartfelt message for Angelina as she posted photos from her daughter’s intimate birthday dinner with their family.

“Happy Birthday to our panganay @angelinaisabele. You know how proud I am of you Angelina. We love you so much anak! Always here for you! Have a blast!” Sunshine said.

Aside from Angelina, Sunshine and Cesar have two more daughters — singer Sam, 19, and Chesca, 17.

The two were married in September 2000. Sunshine filed for annulment in May 2014, a year after separating from Cesar due to allegations of infidelity. Their marriage was eventually annulled in April 2019.

After years of estrangement, she and Cesar finally reunited and made peace at the debut party of their daughter Sam in August 2022.

In an interview with PUSH, Sunshine expressed her gratitude for her restored relationship with Cesar.

“Everything is okay na. Maayos na lahat. Nagkakasundo. Sino ba naman ang may ayaw na hindi magkasundo sundo?” she said. 

The actress also explained her decision to finally patch things up and co-parent with her ex-husband.

“Our family chose forgiveness and we are finally co-parenting. … This is our family and whatever works and makes the children happy, dun kami,” she said, adding, “Para sa mga anak.”

“Focus tayo sa positivity. Masarap mabuhay nang may pagpapatawad at pagmamahal sa puso,” she stated.
