After months of rumors and speculations, Kapamilya actress Janella Salvador finally breaks silence on birth to Markus Paterson’s baby.
On Instagram, Janella posted a photo of her and a baby’s silhouette with a caption: “It’s time.”
The 22-year old actress asked her followers to check her bio for the link of a Youtube channel where a vlog will be released at 8 pm, on January 5.
Markus also directed his followers to check his bio and posted a photo of a baby’s tiny hand holding a finger.
The first time parents finally shared the milestone in a vlog on their newly launched YouTube channel “M & J”.
“Hey Jude, as I compose this, I’m staring at your perfect little face with all the love I didn’t know I had in me. I’m feeling so many emotions but mostly excited that we’re ready to finally introduce you to the world,” Salvador said at the beginning of the video.
Salvador gave birth to Jude on October 20, 2020, and as seen in the footage, the emotional mom cradles her baby for the first time in her hospital bed which is truly a priceless moment.
Paterson also gave a message to his son: “There aren’t enough words to express how much love I have for you. The minute I saw you I knew I would do everything in this world to protect you. I can’t wait to introduce you to the world and hold you in my arms even until you think it’s uncool and get mad at me as you walk off to your friends. And yes, I will be that dad. You are loved forever and always by your mommy and daddy. I welcome you, Jude Trevor Paterson, to the world.”
The 26-minute vlog was narrated as a letter to their son Jude since the beginning of Janella’s pregnancy dating back to February 2020—from prenatal care, checkups to the gender reveal and up until the D-day!
At the end of the vlog, many close friends and family members of Salvador and Paterson express their happiness and excitement to meet the baby.
The celebrity couple made their relationship public last September. Salvador flew to the United Kingdom during quarantine and later joined by her mother, Jenine Desiderio and her younger brother.
Congrats Janella and Marcus to your new bundle of joy!
