“Aba eh 'yung anak ko napakabuting tao, napakaganda ng heart nitong si Miel. She's very talented, she's very sweet, very loving. Whatever my daughter Miel, and all my kids for that matter, want susuportahan namin kasi matitino silang bata,” Cuneta continued.

“Alam mo ba napunta sa amin si Miguel one day old. Hindi ko pa nakikita ang picture niya, may nagsabi na 'may baby boy dito.' Sabi ko, 'Akin 'yan. Huwag niyo ibibigay kahit kanino, akin yan.' Hindi ko pa alam kung ano ang itsura niya o kung kumpleto ba fingers niya, hindi ako nagtanong. Tapos nung dumating sa akin, sabi ko, 'Now I understand why God didn't give me a son to carry in my tummy. It's because He was giving me you to me,’” she recalled.
