Malaki rin ang pasasalamat sa kanyang stepdad: YSABEL, grateful at nami-miss ang pagiging close nila noon ni Sen. LAPID

NAGPAPASALAMAT ang ‘Voltes V: Legacy’ star na si Ysabel Ortega sa kanyang stepfather na si Gregorio Pimentel dahil sa pagturing sa kanya bilang tunay na anak.

“I know na it’s not easy to treat someone else’s daughter as your own. So I’m just very grateful kasi I found a father in daddy Greg. I know it’s not easy to accept that.

“But he treats me as his own daughter, and I’m very happy because I’m happy to say na now, I have a family. I have a whole family,” sey ni Ysabel na ang tunay na ama ay ang veteran action star na si Senator Lito Lapid.

Maayos naman daw ang relasyon ni Ysabel sa kanyang biological father. Nami-miss daw niya ang pagiging close nila noon ni Senator Lapid.

“Growing up I was very close to my dad, I always talk about it, I’m always grateful for it. Of course there was a time, for people who knew about it, there was a rough patch po.

“Pero, it always happens with family. We get to talk with each other, we see each other from time to time. What matters is now, and I am grateful for what we have.”

Ang maganda pa raw ay suportado si Ysabel ng kanyang ama sa pag-pursue nito na magkaroon ng law degree.
