Aiko Melendez was ecstatic as she shared that her 16-year-old daughter Marthena completed a course in law in a summer school in Oxford, England.
The actress-politician gave a glimpse of what appears to be a completion ceremony held at Somerville College, a constituent college of the University of Oxford, via her Instagram page on Saturday, July 8.
“Congratulations on graduating! You are an achiever. You make me so proud of being your mother!” Aiko addressed her daughter. “We are all rooting for you, my dear Mimi.”
“Mama’s sleepless and tireless night over taping and shootings is all so worth it. And if Mama AIKO would have to do tons of work just to send you to all the best schools, I would, without a doubt!” she added.
Aiko advised Marthena to “never get tired of learning,” as the actress looked forward to her daughter reaching other milestones.
“I can proudly say soon we have a future lawyer in the family. This is just the beginning of beautiful things to come,” Aiko stated. “PS! Teary-eyed mama here.”
