Filipino sports stars have recently found themselves in the public eye, not just for their resilience and remarkable achievements but also for the complexities of their personal relationships — especially with their mothers.
Olympic gymnastics champion Carlos Yulo, of course, will be the first name and story to come to mind after drawing headlines not only for his historic back-to-back gold medal wins in the Paris Olympics but for his very public conflict with his mother.
'EJ's mother has this quiet dignity and strength. She's always there — present for him but in a way you hardly notice. Even during EJ's guesting on Fast Talk, she was quietly taking care of him, bringing him water and attending to his needs without drawing attention to herself. I didn't even know she was his mom until I asked.'For Kuya Boy, Obiena's mother is the perfect embodiment of the role of a supportive athlete's parent.
