Iya Villania’s latest social media post is dedicated to her daughter, Alana.
On Instagram, Iya uploaded a photo of the little girl sleeping, along with a heartfelt message.
“As the arrival of #A5 approaches, I noticed that my heart (and hormones) have opened my eyes to seeing Alana in a different light,” Iya wrote.
The Kapuso host admitted that there’s sadness knowing that Alana won’t be her only girl anymore, but there’s also undeniable joy knowing that she’ll have a best friend for life in her younger sister.
Iya added that it feels like she’s having baby number two all over again.
“I look at her now and realize just how special she’s been allowing me to feel how it is to have a little girl. I’m guilty of not being so patient with her drama and now I appreciate how much she’s taught me in preparation for only more of it,” she said.
“Oh my dearest, Dudz. You were the best thing that happened to this family right at the height of the pandemic in 2020. You will always be so special to me being my first little girl but I’m excited too for you, your baby sister and I to have our special moments and trips together.”
Alana is the third child of Iya and Drew Arellano.
They also have three sons: Primo, Leon, and Astro.
The Kapuso couple announced their fifth pregnancy in September.
