5 powerful real-life celebrity moms in iconic Star Cinema movies

by Patricia Matalog

<p>There&#x27;s just something about mothers in movies that hit us right through our hearts. They inspire us, they move us, and they make us laugh and cry, much like our real moms whom we&#x27;ll always love and admire. </p><p>But the women we present to you here are not just amazing in whatever role they portray, because they are just as amazing as mothers in real life, and we love them all the more for that! In celebration of Mother&#x27;s Day this year, here are five powerful real-life celebrity moms from Star Cinema films that we&#x27;re huge fans of! </p><div><strong>Dionisia Pacquiao, mom of Manny Pacquiao, in ‘Ang Tanging Pamilya: A Marry Go Round’ </strong></div><p>Marlene (Dionisia) might have always wanted things to be done her way in this 2009 comedy movie, but she behaves this way only out of love and concern for her son Prince (Sam Milby). In real life, Mommy Dionisia is just as caring and loving to her son, champion boxer Manny Pacquiao. She’s a woman who never fails to pray for her son’s well-being every time he faces an opponent in the boxing ring. </p><p> Watch the FULL MOVIE here: </p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/OjOMlTaL6ps" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><div><strong>Coney Reyes, mom of Vico Sotto, in ‘Four Sisters and a Wedding’</strong> </div><p>Grace Salazar (Coney) of the 2013 cult favorite &quot;Four Sisters and a Wedding&quot; might just be one of the most iconic Star Cinema moms ever, and for a good reason. In the film, she is able to raise smart, witty, caring, and courageous children, just like how she did in real life. Because of her strength and loving nature, she was able to raise a son like Pasig mayor Vico Sotto. </p><p>Watch the FULL MOVIE here: </p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Q9DA2Fdhi8s" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><div><strong>Angelica Panganiban, mom of Amila Sabine, in ‘The Unmarried Wife’ </strong></div><p>Anne (Angelica) may appear to be a timid wife in this 2016 romantic-drama, but she doesn&#x27;t back down when it comes to her child. In real life, her strength of character as a mother makes her shine even more in this newfound role, being a hands-on mom to her daughter Bean, who we fortunately see from Angelica’s delightful Instagram updates. </p><p>Watch the FULL MOVIE here: </p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/DuC7tWDPiM0" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><div><strong>Charo Santos-Concio and Judy Ann Santos in ‘Esperanza: The Movie’ </strong></div><p>As the former president of ABS-CBN, Charo has long been the network&#x27;s esteemed Ma&#x27;am Charo, one who has always exuded motherly vibes to everyone. She has also portrayed mother roles in several classic movies, but her character as Isabel in the hit teleserye-turned-movie &quot;Esperanza&quot; might just be one of our top favorites. </p><p>Meanwhile, Judy Ann Santos first rose to fame playing strong-willed daughter lead roles, such as that of Esperanza, but she is also a powerful mom in real life. Talk about juggling mommy duties, life as a respected actress, slash chef-restaurateur, slash content creator, all in one! </p><p>Watch the FULL MOVIE here: </p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/gfnHRB_AyrA" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div>

We'll always be huge fans of these celeb moms' strength and grace!
