Robin Padilla finally meets his grandson Alas Joaquin

The actor finally gets his long-awaited meeting with the three month-old son of daughter Kylie Padilla

20 Nov – Actor Robin Padilla finally meets his first grandson, Alas Joaquin three months after daughter Kylie Padilla gave birth to him.

As reported on ABS-CBN, the actor recently shared a video of the touching first meeting, which occurred at Padilla and wife Mariel Rodriguez's daughter Isabella's first birthday party.

In the video, Padilla can be seen taking Alas from Kylie's hands and then recite the adhan - the Islamic call to prayer to Alas as he held him in his arms.

Padilla wrote on Instagram, "Praise the one Lord Maker! There is no other happiness in a grandfather, but [...] one who is with his first grandson."

He also thanked Kylie for bringing Alas to the party, and thanked wife Mariel for making it happen.

"There is no other greater happiness in this day," he said.

He also gave a shout out to daughter Queenie Padilla, who also gave birth to baby girl Mustahsina back in July, saying, "We miss you."

On the other hand, wife Mariel Rodriguez shared a photo from Padilla's first meeting with baby Alas, and wrote, "Definitely one of the highlights of the party. Family is everything. Thank you."

Back in October, Kylie's fiancé and baby daddy Aljur Abrenica shared with the media that Padilla had yet to visit his first grandson since Alas' birth, and expressed his belief that his estranged relationship with Padilla may play a big part in the latter's absence.
