Susan Roces supports Grace’s search for her parents

The Philippines’ movie queen, Susan Roces is very supportive of her daughter Sen. Grace Poe’s ongoing search for her biological parents. This is what the Senator said.

The Senator was asked when she and Roces visited the grave of the late Fernando Poe, Jr during his death anniversary on Dec. 14.          

 “Alam niyo naman yung mom ko, cool lang iyan. Wala naman at hindi naman makakasama, di ba, kung magpa DNA test tayo?” Grace said after a certain biological relative from Guimaras Island surfaced recently.

 Whatever the outcome of the DNA, Grace is grateful that a family treated her like their own daughter. And this is the family of the late king of action movies and his wife Roces.

 “Kung hindi, patuloy pa rin tayong maghanap. Dati pa naman nating ginagawa yun. Mabuti nga ngayon may siyensya na para tumulong. Gayunpaman, kung hindi naman yun magiging matagumpay, ako naman po ay kumpiyansa na rin sa pagmahahal ng aking ina,” Grace added.

Grace clarified that she has been searching for her biological parents for quite a time, even before certain parties lodged disqualification cases against her saying she’s not a natural-born Filipino and her lack of months/years of residency to run for president.
