Silang magkakapatid sina Paul Jake, [they told them] na mag-work talaga kayo. Di ba &#x27;yung ibang mayayaman na may family business, &#x27;yung iba maghihintay na lang na tumangap ng dividend. Ang mother and father-in-law ko sila talaga, &#x27;Hindi. Mag-work talaga kayo para may maipamana kayo sa inyong kids,&quot; she relayed.</p><p>Kaye also highlighted her in-laws&#x27; generosity, especially toward the helpers in their household.</p><p>&quot;And very, very generous sila, very helpful.

As early as 18 sabi ko when I have my own family, I think I&#x27;ll stop acting because I want to concentrate with my family. At least ngayon hindi naman ako nag-stop, I&#x27;m still here, nag lie low lang.&quot;</p><p>Kaye highlighted that she is enjoying her laid-back life in Cebu.</p><p>&quot;I love it here in Cebu, very laid-back, simple life, everything is near. I would drive my kids to school. Mago-grocery ako mag-isa. Yung buhay na pinangarap ko natupad lahat dito,&quot; she said.</p><p>Kaye and Jake have two kids now, Joaquin and Iñigo.</p>
