Unlike his famous mom, Ina Raymundo’s son Jakob prefers to steer away from the camera.
The 42-year-old Kapamilya actress and mother of five shared that her unico hijo prefers not to have his photo taken. This she revealed in a “Tonight with Boy Abunda” episode aired Thursday.
Previously, Raymundo shared on her Instagram her teenage son’s moving-up ceremony. She and husband Brian Poturnak were in attendance.
Upon posting, netizens were quick to gush about Jakob’s good looks. But Raymundo admitted that she had to ask her son’s permission to post the photos.
“That one, nagpaalam ako (I asked his permission), ” the actress said. “Kasi pag ayaw niya talaga, nagagalit siya (Because when he really doesn’t want to, he gets mad).”
When asked where she thinks Jakob’s insecurities come from, she answered: “Siguro dahil natutukso siya sa school (Maybe it’s because he gets teased in school).” Raymundo added that her son is aware of his being the son of a celebrity.
“So you don’t see Jakob becoming an actor?” talk-show host Boy Abunda asked, to which Raymundo replied: “Probably not. Sa ngayon ha, I would say ayaw niya (Probably not. For now, I would say he’s not interested).”
However, it seems that her youngest, Minka, might want to follow in her footsteps. Raymundo recalled that in one photoshoot she had, the little girl said: “Take my pictures! Take my pictures!”
“Ako pa yung nahihiya kasi nagco-cause ng delay (I’m the one who feels bad because it causes delay),” Raymundo said of that day as her daughter stole the show. “Tapos pag tinanong ko (When I ask her), ‘Do you want to be an actress in the future?’ ‘Yes’,’yes’, laging ‘yes.'”
Nevertheless, she said she is proud of all her five kids. When Abunda asked: “Is being a mother the best thing about you?” she replied: “Yes, I would say so.” She even joked: “Kaya nga name ko ‘Ina’ eh. Bagay na bagay talaga (That’s why my name is “Ina (Mother).” It really fits me).” Katrina Hallare /ra
