Gelli de Belen is one happy momma as she recently got to be with her sons, Joaquin and Julio Rivera, who are both based in Canada.

The children of Gelli with her husband, actor Ariel Rivera, are currently residing in Ontario, where they are studying.

In an Instagram post, the celebrity mom shared a sweet photo collage with her two precious boys and simply expressed her unconditional love for them through the words, “My heart is full.”

Some of the actress' friends in the media and showbiz industry such as Unang Hirit host Suzi Entrata-Abrera, actress Arlene Muhlach, actor Edu Manzano, and talent manager Noel Ferrer expressed their love for Gelli's family through loving messages and heart emojis.

On December 14, the celebrity couple flew to Canada to be with their kids for the upcoming holiday season.

The mother of two posted a snap with her spouse inside an onboarding airplane and happily announced, “Flying to be with our boys. So excited. Be back soon (Philippine flag emoji),” she wrote.

In July, Gelli gave an update about her two sons' life in Canada. According to the TV host, Joaquin and Julio were attending online school at that time.

“They're doing well, online schooling 'yung ganun,” she said in an interview with Lhar Santiago of 24 Oras. “But of course, may edad na ng kaunti so 'yung isa nagvo-volunteer work to get credits for his course.”

Despite the long distance, the showbiz married couple makes sure to always check and visit their children abroad whenever they can.
