Ruffa Gutierrez did not miss the chance to celebrate her daughter Lorin’s 21st birthday with a heartfelt message on social media.
On Instagram, the actress shared stunning portraits of her grown-up daughter along with a loving birthday greeting.
“To my beautiful baby, who’s now a 21-year-old young lady, congratulations on reaching this milestone,” Ruffa began. “Welcome to adulthood, where you’ll have to work hard and pay your own bills.”
Ruffa praised Lorin for her dedication to her studies, her community involvement, and for being “the wonderful person” she has become.
“May you continue to make us proud,” Ruffa expressed. “Thank you for filling our lives with love and lots of laughter.”
She concluded her message with advice: “Career muna bago ang love, k?”
Last month, Lorin featured her mom in a special TikTok video. Besides Lorin, Ruffa has another daughter named Venice with her former husband, Yilmaz Bektas, whom she separated from in 2007.
In June, Ruffa made her relationship with Herbert Bautista public after four years together.
