Kim Atienza and his only son Jose have been spending some father-and-son moments over the holidays in the United States, where Jose currently resides.
Kim gave fans a glimpse of his US trip, during which he toured around Tufts University and bonded with his son, as seen on his Instagram page yesterday, Dec. 28.
“He gladly toured me around and showed me the ancient 19th century brick schoolhouses, Jumbo, the school’s Elephant mascot. (PT Barnum is one of Tuft’s famous alumni) and the painted political Canon pointed towards Harvard!” he said.
Kim also expressed his joy over his son’s accomplishments, sharing how his kids have been living the dreams he once had.
“I find vicarious joy seeing my son fly. It was always a dream to study and live abroad and my kids are fulfilling this dream for me,” he said. “Let me humbly brag that I am such a proud father of Jose.”
In a separate post, the TV host recalled how he took Jose on his first bicycle ride when he was a kid, and now his son is the one taking him on a ride. He also showed a video of them riding a rented bicycle around the university campus, as seen also on his Instagram page today.
Meanwhile, fellow celebrities Camille Prats, Karen Davila and Geneva Cruz expressed their admiration for the father and son via the comments section.
“Yaaaay! [Enjoy] the rest of the holiday season kuya and Jose!” Prats said.
