The 28-year-old actress bested five others, including Sharon Cuneta, Maricel Soriano, and Marian Rivera, for her performance in the movie, A Very Good Girl.
The 2023 movie, A Very Good Girl, is a black comedy thriller directed by Petersen Vargas, which revolved around the story of Philo, played by Kathryn, who wanted to seek revenge against retail mogul Mother Molly, portrayed by award-winning actress Dolly de Leon.
This is the first time Kathryn won the FAMAS Best Actress award. Meanwhile, Alfred Vargas and Piolo Pascual shared the Best Actor award for their performances in the films, Pieta, and Mallari, respectively.

Wala naman sa family natin ang artista. Pero bata ka palang alam mo na ang gusto mong gawin.
And now here we are. Reflecting through your journey, I can say na sobrang proud kami sayo, anak!" Mommy Min wrote in the caption of an Instagram video showing Kathryn's evolution from being a child star to receiving her first FAMAS award.

She acknowledged how Kathryn deserves the award with her perseverance and determination to achieve her dream. "Remembering how you faced every struggle and challenge na napagdaanan mo/natin as family. Watching you overcome everything and grow into an amazing person you are has been one of our greatest blessings. I never knew how strong you are until I saw your determination and how you bounce back every after fall. You remained positive and kind to the world no matter what," she added.
She then tells Kathryn advice that parents could also tell their own, "If you have a dream, never let go of it, don't give up till the end. Make yourself your own competition. Always keep that spirit that brought you this far! Andito lang kami para sa'yo. You have earned every bit of this success!!"
Mommy Min concluded her post, "Congratulations our best actress! We love you, Anak!!!"
Mommy Min's message highlights the important role of parents in helping and guiding their children towards achieving their dreams. While it feels more convenient and easier to make choices and decisions on their behalf, their story proves that it also pays to trust our children, especially when it comes to their dreams and ambitions in life.
