In the decades that they’ve been under the limelight, we have surely seen the famous female celebrities featured in this Kapamilya Snaps feature in various lights as they’ve already played different characters throughout their careers. But among the roles they’ve taken on, being a grandmother to their beloved grandchildren is undoubtedly their most important and most favorite of all. Read on to find out who they are.

Vilma Santos-Recto

As her son Luis Manzano and daughter-in-law Jessy Mendiola welcomed their firstborn Isabella Rose on December 28, 2022, this makes Vilma an official member of the grandmoms’ club now.

The Star For All Seasons wasn’t able to contain her kilig and gigil upon seeing her in the flesh and carrying her in her arms for the first time, as seen in the latest vlog uploaded by the couple in Jessy’s official YouTube channel. She also posted an adorable snap of Baby Peanut and captioned it: “Welcome to the world baby Rosie! Momsie Vi loves you so much. Proud of you!!!”

Janice de Belen

Her character Leona Fiero in Dirty Linen may be abhorred because of how wicked and cunning she is, but Janice in real life is completely adored by many, especially her apos. Apart from her five kids, she also makes sure to take good care and spend quality time with her four grandchildren Alejandro, Adi, Anya, and Ariella, who were all broods of her firstborn Luigi Muhlach with wife Patty.

Despite her busy schedule, Janice never fails to greet them on their birthdays and celebrate their achievements, from graduating in elementary to learning how to swim. In one of her IG posts with them, she wrote: “HAD FUN WITH THESE BABIES! THEY ARE GROWING SO FAST. SO EACH TIME I'M WITH THEM I KISS AND HUG THEM LIKE CRAZY. (sic)”

Pilita Corrales

In her more than six decades in show business, Pilita has indeed built a lasting career as the “Asia’s Queen of Songs.” But one of the best things in her life is definitely her grandkids Janine, Jessica, Diego, Maxine, Rikki Mae, Kenneth, and Arabella.

Annabelle Rama

Famous as the matriarch of the Gutierrez family – one of the most prominent and biggest clans in the local entertainment scene – Annabelle is not just a loving and strict mom to her six kids, but to her grandchildren Lorin, Venice, Zion, Kai, Athena, Aria, Ezra, and David, too!

As everyone lives busy lives, she makes sure as much as possible to celebrate all special occasions in their family, like birthdays and Christmas, with them and even with her husband Eddie Gutierrez’s grandkids to his children from his past relationships.

Gloria Diaz

Being Miss Universe could be one of the greatest titles to be given to a woman, but Gloria revealed on IG that the best title she has is being a “momshie” to her apos Balthazar, Valentin, Leo, and Olivia.

We might have hated her as Helena Agcaoili in 2 Good 2 Be True because of how scheming she was, but the beauty queen-actress is actually warm and affectionate towards her apos, to whom she loves to play and spend time with based on some of her posts on IG. She wrote in one of her posts: “Can u love ur apos more than ur own kids.”

Lorna Tolentino

While her character Lily in FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano was really loathed by viewers, but Lorna is actually deeply loved by her grandchildren. In fact, she mentioned in a previous interview that she treats her granddaughter Tori like her own child.

Whenever she’s not busy at work, she loves to spend time with them, especially Tori who we often see on her IG posts. Among their favorite bonding activities are doing make-up, creating TikTok videos, and even rock climbing. A lot of grannies out there could surely relate in one of her IG posts wherein she expressed: “Sana umabot ako doon sa time na lahat ng gusto niyang gawin ay nandoon pa rin ako.”

These famous lolas are indeed the coolest, grooviest, and most glamorous that we know!
