Andi Eigenmann has her three children complete in Siargao again as her eldest daughter, Ellie, came home from Metro Manila where she studies.
Eigenmann gave a glimpse of their reunion which coincided with a surfing competition, as seen on the celebrity mom’s Instagram page on Wednesday, Oct. 30.
“Pre-occupied the last couple of days with the biggest World Surf League event of the Philippines so far, and with my eldest home again after two months!” she said.
Eigenmann and Ellie have been spending quality time together through their “daily hangs” at their surf shop and snack bar, along with the latter’s younger siblings, Lilo and Koa, and friends on the island.
Ellie attended regular school from pre-school to third grade, then shifted to homeschooling in Siargao during the pandemic. Eigenmann revealed in September her daughter’s decision to return to a regular school for high school.
“When everything started going back to normal after the pandemic, Ellie craved for a school setup that was more normal for her,” the actress said.
“…For Ellie, that’s what works better for her and as a parent, all I can do is guide her into making decisions that will be for her benefit, not mine, even if it’s at the expense of mine,” she added.
Ellie lives with her dad, actor Jake Ejercito, in Metro Manila.
Meanwhile, Eigenmann shares her two younger children with her fiancé, celebrity surfer Philmar Alipayo.
