Actors Aga Muhlach and Charlene Gonzalez were emotional as they sent their daughter Atasha to study abroad.
In a video uploaded by Aga on Instagram, Charlene almost broke down in tears as she looked at the family photos of their children in their younger years.
Last Sept. 7, Atasha left for the United Kingdom. Her brother Andres is studying at college in Spain.
Aga told her daughter to enjoy college and independence.
"Kaw talaga! We already miss you! ? Pls don’t worry about me and your mom.
"Enjoy your college and independence. Continue to be the person that you are. God is with you, ALWAYS!
"As much as it breaks my heart and your mom’s that both you and Andres will be away for a long time, pls know in your hearts that we are the happiest for you both.
"Have fun!! Spread love and kindness! I love you very much, my little princess and I will always miss you! Cheers to college life!!" said Aga.
In a separate post, Charlene said: "You have always been so sweet.. Your surprise when we got home made me cry!!!"
Charlene also uploaded a video of Natasha when she was a little girl.
"Off to college, my precious daughter.. Atasha ♥️ The time has come for you to physically be on campus as you go off to college today in the UK.
