Karen delos Reyes' Proud Mom Moment: Baby Walking at 10 Months

Karen delos Reyes' son walking at 10 months

Single mom Karen delos Reyes' 10-month-old unico hijo Gabriel Lucas has reached a new milestone: taking his first steps by himself!

The actress has been sharing on Instagram how she trained Gabriel Lucas to walk at a young age. Last June, she posted a video that showed her guiding her baby's steps using a walking assistant. Two months later, the little boy could already stand by himself more steadily, and with a bit of encouragement, took a step towards his mom.

In a video Karen posted on August 26, the little boy is seen taking steadier steps. With the help of an andador (walker), Gabriel Lucas was able to practice his steps even more, and yesterday, Karen shared a clip showing the 10-month-old doing the longest walk he has taken so far. Of course, the first-time mom was ecstatic!

Karen famously hailed herself an Uber to the hospital when she suffered preeclampsia after she gave birth to her son on October 26 last year. (pep.ph)

Jomari Yllana is a new dad over again

The actor and his non-showbiz girlfriend Joy Reyes are enjoying the new addition to their family: Christiano Ayrton Yllana, or baby Jomjom. It isn't clear when exactly baby Jomjom was born, but last July, Jomari posted a photo of him kissing his son, and captioned it "You make me smile, you make me sing. You take my breath away. We welcome you to our family Christiano Ayrton Yllana - Baby Jomjom."

Jomjom is the first child of Jomari and Joy, although the actor is already a dad to 18-year-old son Andre with his ex-wife, actress Aiko Melendez. (abs-cbn.com)

Sesame Street's Bert and Ernie a gay couple?

A writer from the beloved children's show recently confirmed that the puppet duo are indeed a "loving couple." In an interview with Queerty.com,  Mark Saltzman, who wrote for Sesame Street in the 80s, says the famous characters mirrored his own relationship with his male partner at the time. Producers of the show, however, denied this, saying, "As we have always said, Bert and Ernie are best friends. They were created to teach preschoolers that people can be good friends with those who are very different from themselves." Saltzman later backtracked, saying his statement may have been misinterpreted. (queerty.com)
