“For me, I can’t say much yet. For now, no. They’re trying, that’s for sure. My sister has a PCOS, and it would be a miracle if she has a child,” Gela said in an interview with ABS-CBN News. “Well, at least my parents also are supportive for that. My sister nga kasi is at the age, turning 32 this year, medyo kailangan na din.”
