Annabelle Rama, a talent manager, claimed that her daughter Ruffa Gutierrez has been grieving every day since her children, Lorin and Venice, just reunited with their father, Yilmaz Bektas, in Turkey.
Annabelle provided assistance to a contestant seeking her father during the “Showtime Sexy Babe” portion of ABS-CBN’s show “It’s Showtime.”
Annabelle said, “Yung tungkol sa tatay mo na wala at hindi mo siya nakikita, magaling ka naman kumanta kaya ipagpatuloy mo ‘yung singing career mo. Kasi baka sumikat ka, at baka ang tatay mo ang tumawag or magpakita sa‘yo,”
“Tulad ng dalawang apo ko, 17 si Venice, 18 si Lorin, 15 years nilang hindi nakita ‘yung tatay nila. Ngayon nagkita-kita na sila so baka swertehin ka rin,” she said.
“Itong si mommy, nakakaiyak ‘yung mga comment. Parang ako ‘yung natamaan.” Ruffa replied
“Sa totoo lang, every day ka na umiiyak. Tama na ‘yan,” Annabelle said
Ruffa remarked that her reaction was just tears of delight.
Ruffa said, “Yes, tears of joy kasi after 15 years nga nag-reunite na sila,”
