Ellen Adarna has been pretty low-key about sharing details surrounding her son Elias, that's why it was quite a pleasant surprise that she posted her first mother-and-son photo with him on her Instagram account yesterday, May 10, to celebrate Mother's Day.
Adarna shared a photo of her holding up Elias in her arms while she lovingly looks at him. The two appear to be in Madrid, Spain, at the famous Plaza Mayor. True to her private nature, the pic Adarna chose was of Elias looking away from the camera. She also paired the photo with a simple caption, that of a mother-and-son emoji along with a red heart emoji.
Elias, who is turning two in June, is Adarna's child with her former partner John Lloyd Cruz. She recently spoke about her decision not to return to showbiz in the foreseeable future to focus on raising her son and work on her mental health. In March, Adarna took part in a two-week mental training program in Bali, Indonesia because she was "stuck in this black hole for almost three years." She is currently residing in Cebu, her hometown, with Elias.
