Isabelle Daza introduces son ‘Baltieboo’ to the world
On Thursday morning, three months after she’s given birth, It Girl and new mom Isabelle Daza finally introduced her son to the world – as in showed his face and informed her followers of his name, which has a really touching story.
Isabelle's husband Adrien named their firstborn, Balthazar Gabriel Daza Semblat, after Isabelle's dad Gabriel ‘Bong’ Daza.
She says his nickname is Baltie — or Baltieboo, as she dotingly call him.
On her main IG gallery, Isabelle posted for the very first time, a photo showing a very happy Baltie, smiling, and all aww-inducing.
On her Instagram Stories meanwhile, Isabelle revealed why it took her this long to “launch” his son and why she decided today’s the day.
According to Isabelle, she wasn’t particularly sure too. “I felt instinctively protective of her son, like I wanted to shelter him from the world,” she began before listing all her possible reasons.
Maybe because so much of her life is already out there and she wanted to keep his first few months to herself; maybe because she was scared he’d be judged, and maybe because she “wasn’t prepared to face the world with how I looked.”
And then her biggest maybe: “Maybe because he hasn’t met my dad yet.”
Isabelle explained that last Saturday, July 14, on her father’s second death anniversary — the day of the French revolution, she reminds — her son finally met her dad.
She revealed her father loved Paris so much and in fact felt he was half-French.
Which is what her son is; Isabelle’s husband, Adrien Semblat is French.
It’s a beautiful story, and if we may, beautifully told too, and we encourage everybody to head out to Isabelle’s IG to watch it yourself, while you still can.
Thanks for sharing Baltie with us, Isabelle. You have a beautiful son. — LA, GMA News
