Recently, Aiko and Andre had a heart-to-heart talks for the former's vlog, where the budding young actor revealed how he felt growing up with his parents Aiko and actor Jomari Yllana being separated.

In the video, Andre also addressed his father. The video has garnered over a million views.

Andre honestly opened up and gave a message for Jomari, "Siguro 'yung thirst ko for a father... dati, grabe ako maghabol kay dad. Siguro nasanay na rin ako na parang wala siya. Pasensya na lang kung may mga times na nakakalimutan kita."

Aiko also shared a series of Andre's childhood photos in her Instagram Story.

The actress is currently set to star in the third installment of the Mano Po Legacy in The Flower Sisters, also starring Thea Tolentino, Angel Guardian, and Beauty Gonzalez.
