Ruffa Gutierrez is one emotional and supportive mom as she sends off her eldest daughter, Lorin Bektas, to the airport to fly to Los Angeles.

On Instagram, the former beauty queen posted a photo of herself and her daughters, including youngest Venice, in the airport and said, “My baby girl @loringabriella is growing up, graduating high school in June, and will fly the nest to follow her dreams real soon.

“@venicebektas and I will always be here for you when you need to rest your wings. I know you just left but come home fast. It's so quiet here! We love you.”

Ruffa's message seems to have reached her daughter as Lorin wrote in the comment section, “Awww miss you guys na! So jetlagged.”

To which her mother replied, “It's 4 am there -- sleep na so you won't feel tired all day. Miss you! Take your vitamins and drink your milk.”

As if that's not enough, Ruffa also shared some snippets of her send-off in her Instagram Stories, which included a few reminders for her daughter.

She wrote, “Happy trip baby girl! Call 35x a day!

“Be a good girl. Take your vitamins. Report to me wherever you go. Ignore boys who look at you @loringabriella. Always pray.”

Ruffa also added that her mom, Annabelle Rama, called more than 50 times to check up on her granddaughter inside the airport and even said, “Ingatan mo wallet mo” before leaving.

Based on previous reports, Lorin Bektas took a pre-college course at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), which the family visited in early 2019.

At the time, Lorin, who is the eldest daughter of Ruffa to ex-husband Yilmaz Bektas, said that UCLA is her dream university and that she hopes she can study there for actual college after graduating from high school.
