Harake expressed her gratitude to Parks, underscoring how he did not only marry her but also embraced her two children as his own.

“Mahirap siya na process pero it’s all worth it,” Parks, for his part, said of the adoption.

During the vlog, the couple also opened up about their experience and acknowledged the dedication and sacrifices of the social workers who assisted them. Harake also expressed hope that the government would provide more attention and resources for social work services.

“Saludo po ako sa inyong lahat, and sana po talaga lumawak pa ang resources niyo. ‘Yun po talaga ang prayers namin,” Harake said.

Harake took Lucas into her care when she was still single, while Bia is her daughter with her former partner, rapper Skusta Clee. /edv
