Mommy Marjorie Barretto could not contain her overflowing pride about daughter Julia Barretto’s highly lauded acting on “Maalaala Mo Kaya” (MMK). 

The February 18 episode of the long-running drama anthology, entitled “#MMKLoveMeNow”, had Marjorie posting on Instagram a long message of how overjoyed she is, not only of Julia’s performance but of fans’ reactions as well.

In her post, Marjorie said that Julia particularly told her to watch, as Julia really put her best in it, and that she’s dedicating the episode to her (Marjorie).

“To see you evolve. To see how you used all your pain and made yourself a better person for it. I felt you.. and I felt Aika’s pain. And I want you and the world to know that I am proud of you,” she wrote. 

Please allow me to share my favorite scene sa #MMKLoveMeNow. When Julia was taping for this, she would tell me that I really needed to watch this episode, sabi Nya, ginagalingan Nya, para maging proud ako sa kanya. She told me last Valentine’s day, that she was dedicating this episode to me. I told her I was always proud of her naman. But when I watched you here Juls, I was overwhelmed. To see you evolve. To see how you used all your pain and made yourself a better person for it. I felt you.. and I felt Aika’s pain. And I want you and the world to know that I am proud of you❤️ I have always believed that with God’s grace and your hard work you will be the best that you can be. Mahal na mahal kita❤️
