G, who immigrated to the United States in the early 2000s, wrote this tear-jerking post for her two babies, Kenobi Benjamin and Sakura Anne Marie.

She wrote, “When I think about being a mom, This photo with my babies on the jeepney in my moms province of Batangas captures the ride. It's been bitter sweet seeing them grow so fast recently. I'm just trying to enjoy every single moment despite the growing pains.”

G Tongi added that she is grateful for her children for making her a mom.

She continued, “I love you @sakewalters @kenobiw Thanks for making me a mom who continuously wants to work on being more patient, more understanding, and more loving. Love you with all my [heart] and soul!”

In May 2020, G also shed light on why she decided to leave her career in the Philippines through an Instagram post.

She said, “One of the many factors, why I chose to move back to America during my twenties, is that it was inevitable when one is showered with that kind of attention from a nation to not feel narcissistic.

“Fame does that to people. Really, I can attest to that.

“So I retreated, understanding I wasn't okay by just being a face.

“I've since worked to try so hard to prove that there's more to me than just the way I look.

“People who really know me, know my heart, and know my passion for what I stand for and believe in.

“I hope you can get past the glossiness of this perceived image to know the real me.”
