Robi Domingo pays tribute to his late lola



Kapamilya TV host Robi Domingo is grieving the loss of his grandmother, whom he fondly called Ina.

In his Instagram post in the early morning of January 9, Robi revealed that his family temporarily kept the death of his lola a secret from him so he can focus on his wedding.

Robi tied the knot with his non-showbiz girlfriend Maiqui Pineda at the Diocesan Shrine and Parish of San Isidro Labrador in Pulilan, Bulacan last Saturday, January 6.

He said in the post that the recent events in his life was “bittersweet”, since after experiencing the happiest day of his life, he and his family had to say goodbye to a dear family member.

“January 6 was the happiest day of my life. My heart was filled with immense gratitude -from preps in the morning, to the ceremony, to the reception which lasted until dawn.” Robi said.

He continued, “As I was about to leave the place, my mom was sobbing as she tried to tell me that my Lola passed away that same morning. Apparently, my family didn't tell us so that our focus was our magical day.

"'Ina', as I fondly called her, took care of me especially when I was a toddler. I loved how she made her ube halaya and leche flan sa llanera. Rest in peace, ina. Please look after us together with ama. Thank you, and we love you.”

Robi also asked for everyone's understanding as they will take a breather from all that has happened, which he described as a “roller coaster of emotions.”

“We wanted to thank a lot of people during the wedding but it has been a roller coaster ride for us these past few days. Our hearts are happy, but we apologize for the delay. We'll just take a breather from all the happenings”
