Vilma and Luis: Special bond

-
It’s no big secret that Vilma Santos and Luis Manzano share a special bond. Through the years, the Filipino public has witnessed the evolution of their loving relationship. Indeed, Vilma’s "I love you, Lucky!" spiel is the stuff of legend, but these days, this celebrity mother and son duo enjoys a close friendship as well.

"My Mom is pretty much a super woman and multi-tasker," says the son formerly known as Lucky. "She’s my friend, confidante, acting and life coach, and my loving mother, all rolled into one," Luis says of his mom, who spends quality time going on gimmicks, swimming and playing video games with her first-born. For her part, Vilma believes it is important to make adjustments to the traditional parent-child relationship. "Nowadays, I don’t believe that mother always knows best," she says, noting that it is an advantage to be friends with one’s child. "Although, I don’t meddle with his career and the decisions he makes, nor pose an obstacle to the fulfillment of his dreams, my son knows that I am always available for advice," she adds.

While both Vilma and Luis enjoy bonding over long talks, their hectic schedules make it difficult for them to be together all the time. Loyal Globe subscribers for many years – Vilma’s had her Globe Handyphone for eight years now, while Luis has been a subscriber since 1995 – mother and son have become even closer through texting and mobile phone calls. "Having a Globe Handyphone makes it so convenient for me or my mom to check up on each other or just make lambing," Luis relates. And like any doting mother, Vilma is particular about her son’s whereabouts, and has come to rely on her Globe Handyphone for peace of mind. "A typical text message to Luis involves three-word sentences – Where are you?, Is everything all right?, and of course, I love you," shares Vilma.
