Papa Ogie turns sexy mama in My Daddy Dearest

MANILA, Philippines - Be careful what you wish for — it might just come true!

Beginning tomorrow, June 11, GMA Network presents viewers the hilarious yet heart-warming story of Bong and his daughter Daisy in the new family romantic-comedy series My Daddy Dearest.

Ogie Alcasid plays the role of Bong, son of a rich man who grew up without the guidance and care of his mother.

In the story, Bong — just like his father — is a smooth “lady-killer” who lives the good life until he meets and falls in love with Rose, a simple, loving woman who has a unique gift for growing and tending plants. Their love continues to blossom with the birth of a beautiful daughter named Daisy.

But unfortunately, fate has other plans for Bong and his family. Rose dies in a tragic accident during Daisy’s first birthday. As a result, Bong goes back to his old playboy ways, obliviously leaving his daughter to fend for herself. He is unaware of the daily torments that Daisy goes through in the hands of her Lola Mercedes, her Tita Daphne and cousin Lily — who all want nothing more than to possess all of Bong’s inheritance including the family company.

Despite the luxury being provided to her, Daisy feels lonely because of the absence of her father. Often, she finds refuge in her beloved mother’s garden, which, unknown to her, is occupied by a small magical pixie named Winnie. Knowing Daisy’s pain, Winnie decides to help her by granting her one wish — for Daisy’s dad to become a mom instead.

 Bong’s life turns upside down as he transforms from a “macho papa” to a “sexy mama.”

Will Daisy be able to undo her wish? Will Bong be able to regain his true form before time runs out? And will the evil Mercedes and her kin succeed in taking all the family riches?

Under the helm of Don Michael Perez, GMA Network’s new family drama series airs weekdays before 24 Oras.
