Celebrity twins Atasha and Andres Muhlach greeted their mom, actress-beauty queen Charlene Gonzales, who celebrated her 50th birthday on Wednesday, May 1.
Separately on Instagram, the twins posted pictures of them as kids posing with their mother. They simply wrote in their respective captions, “Happy birthday, mom. I, we love you.”
Gonzales returned the love by commenting on each of her twin’s posts, simply writing, “Thank you, and I love you.”
The twins, who both recently joined show biz, are the children of Gonzales and Aga Muhlach, whom she has been married to for almost 23 years.
Aga shared in an interview in January that they let the twins decide for themselves if they wanted to dabble in show biz.
“Hindi ako nakikialam (I don’t interfere). Sabi ko (I said), ‘Basta pumasok kayo sa industriya, magtrabaho kayo (You guys enter the industry, you guys work), hindi ako makikialam sa inyo (I will not interfere), because you have your own path,” he said.
Atasha, who’s currently a mainstay host in “Eat Bulaga,” said in her previous interviews that their parents taught them to be independent and “live a simple life.”
Atasha said they had access to mobile phones only when they reached 17, and that her daily school allowance when she was studying in the Philippines was only P100.
“My parents taught me that simple is always better; you don’t need something extravagant. Everything has its purpose; you don’t need to spend so much on this and that,” she said.
“Growing up, our parents never spoiled us. Especially about being independent, we would always have to practice budgeting,” she added.
Despite studying abroad for a time and leaving their parents, who admitted they felt their children’s absence, Atasha said that they are a close-knit family.
“We’re just super close. We actually spend most of our time with each other. Whenever we embark on a new activity, we do it as a family,” she shared.
The Muhlach family is set to star in their first sitcom, “Da Pers Family,” on TV5, premiering this May.
