“Alam mo proud na proud ako sa iyo sa lakas ng loob mo. Biro mo on national TV, umamin ka. Basta ang lagi mong iisipin, full support ako sa iyo. Kung saan ka masaya anak, doon ako. Ipinagmamalaki kita sa buong mundo na anak kita, Klang. I love you anak, I miss you,” Esnobie said.
At the time, Klarisse expressed gratitude for her mother’s acceptance during a conversation with “Kuya” inside the “PBB” confession room.
