Always glamorous, TV host and actress Jackielou Blanco is now a grandmother of her son Kenneth’s baby name Ethan. That makes Jackie Lou's mom (Pilita Corrales) a great grandmother now. Jackie Lou admits she spoils her grandson the way Pilita gave her grandchildren what their little hearts desired.
“Iba ang feeling na maging lola,” she gushes. "Iba ung love to your children, iba ang love sa apo, masayang masaya," she adds.
Angeli Pangilinan-Valenciano and Gary Valenciano are now grandparents as their son, Paolo and wife Samantha Godinez-Valenciano, have a baby girl, now 10 months old.
Producer and writer, Angeli Pangilinan-Valenciano, shared how happy she is now being a grandmother.

Grandparents’ Day at SM. Janine Gutierrez and her “Mamita,” Pilita Corrales, Asia’s Queen of Songs, grace the cover of Shopmag this September as SM Supermalls ushers in a “grand” two-week celebration of Grandparents’ Day in 63 malls nationwide.
Janine Gutierrez when asked about her “Mamita,” Pilita Corrales, Asia’s Queen of Songs, “She’s very maalaga, always making sure everyone around her is having a good time and being taken care of.” The cover shoot outtakes undeniably characterize the special connection that Filipinos share with their elders.
Starting August 29, “grand” treats and activities for lolos and lolas include exciting shopping and dining deals, and the Sounds of the 60s Fitness Party, where mallgoers can join our elderly as they get fit with fun fitness classes.
Also not to be missed are the App with Apo (Sept. 2, 3, 9, 10), an activity where grandparents can learn useful mobile apps with their grandkids at SM Cyberzone; and the Art with Apo (Sept. 9, 10), where lolos and lolas can enjoy meaningful bonding moments with their apos through arts and crafts. Come Grandparents’ Day (Sept. 10), there will be a special blessing for grandparents after the Sunday Mass.
Mallgoers can also join the digital promo where they only need to share on Facebook their plans on how they will spend their family’s happiest #DateWithLoloAndLola for a chance to win PhP10,000 worth of SM GCs.
