Oliver also shared why it took Mama Lulu 18 years to visit the Philippines.

He said, "For backstory, after my Dad passed Mom never really had a reason to go back to the Philippines. Almost all her side of the family was in the US. Her 2 eldest kids are OFW, her 3 youngest were in the US. She was also a senior with disability so it's hard. Now that her 2 grandkids moved back from Dubai and is studying in the Philippines and we saved up enough, it was the perfect opportunity. Everything aligned."

Mama Lulu tearfully said, "I am happy. Five of you, thank you."

Oliver shared the first moments they had in the Philippines. He said, "Mama LuLu in Philippines Day 1."
