Actress-singer Karla Estrada finally answers those curious if she actually gets anything from son Daniel Padilla.
In the most recent vlog of dermatologist Vicki Belo, the 46-year-old maintained she only handles the finances of her 25-year-old son.
“Wala naman. Ako lang nagha-handle nang lahat ng pera niya. Eh kasi kung ano man gastos namin, para din ‘yun sa lahat. So importante may natabi sa kanya,” she explained.
According to her, Daniel has already saved enough at this point and could actually retire from showbiz at 35 if he wants to.
“At 35 kahit 'di na siya magtrabaho hanggang apo niya. Nagtabi na tayo,” was how she put it.
Karla is just thankful that Daniel is not careless with his hard-earned money.
“Hindi naman siya palahingi. Hindi ‘yun humihingi ng pera, ng cash. Pero mag-alala ka 'pag nag-ano na 'yan na ‘Ma’. Iba-ibang tono ‘yan eh. 'Pag sobrang ‘Hi, Ma!’ naku patay tayo diyan. ‘Oh Ma, may darating na sasakyan ha!’ Hindi siya humihingi pero ‘pag humingi siya, mababa ang ano... kaya kumapit ka na sa pader,” she divulged.
It is at these moments that Karla thinks Daniel should just handle his own money.
“Para maramdaman niya ang feeling ‘pag nahawakan niya, ‘pag babawasan niya ng ganito kalaki, mararamdaman niya ‘yung feeling na ‘Ah, sayang.’ 'Di niya kasi hawak e kaya easy for him to say na ‘Oh Ma, bayaran mo ito. Oh Ma, may kukunin ako dito!'"
In any case, she gives him pointers on frugality on a regular basis.
