Drew and Leon Arellano


Drew Arellano shares that his son Leon sleeps with this unusual item.

Celebrity host and travel enthusiast Drew Arellano marveled at one of his son Leon's sleeping quirks.

In a post on Instagram, Drew shared a photo of Leon sleeping with a short piece of rope.

"Leon grew up preferring "tali" over stuff toys to put him to sleep. Us parents ain't complaining," he wrote.

As a sporty traveler, Drew also recognized the importance of rope in traveling.

"This surely will come handy during travels but then again he might be a teenager already before that happens.#spacesaver #sleepmaker," he added.

The rope has many uses especially when traveling and enjoying the outdoors. It can be used to fasten and haul equipment, support shelter like tents, and can also be used in the rescue.

Meanwhile, Drew's wife and 24 Oras Chika Minute anchor Iya Villania sent a short but sweet Father's Day greeting to him via Instagram.

"our clingy family just how you like it with another to come in a few weeks! Are you ready to be outnumbered? 🤪 not sure how we're gonna handle 3 but we'll find out together We love you, papa! Happy Father's Day," she wrote as the caption on a photo of Drew with their two sons, Primo and Leon.
