Jackie Lou Blanco is a proud LGBT+ ally as she gets on TikTok with daughter Rikki Mae and greets everyone Happy Pride!


Jackie Lou Blanco is one proud LGBT+ ally!

The Kapuso actress joined her daughter Rikki Mae for a cute little TikTok dance wearing a black shirt that said "ally."

Rikki Mae meanwhile wore the same black shirt but with a Progress Pride flag, which features the iconic rainbow flag, with the blue, pink, and white triad of the trans flag, and stripes of black and brown to represent LGBT+ people of color.

The mother-daughter pair gamely danced to Mae Stephens' "If We Ever Broke Up," and on TikTok where Rikki posted the video, she made a reference to the song title and said "if we ever broke up.. lagot ka sa nanay ko."

Among the hashtags she used were #LesbiansofTikTok and #ally.

Jackie Lou reposted the video on her Instagram page and said her daughter is "too cute!!!"

"Happy Pride Month!" she added.

Rikki Mae is Jackie Lou's eldest daughter with actor Ricky Davao.

On "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda" earlier this month, Jackie Lou admitted she had an inkling that her daughter might be gay. 

"So when she came to me, 'mom I have to tell you something.' Ako naman [I thought], 'oh my, ito na talaga. I think this is the day'," Jackie Lou recalled.

According to Jackie Lou, Rikki arrived with a girl right behind her and then she stood there silent for a full 15 minutes.

Jackie Lou asked her daughter if she Rikki wanted her to say it instead. "Sabi niya, 'no mama, I have to do it. Let me say it."

And then it came: "Sabi niya, 'Mama, I'm gay.' Sabi ko, 'I know.'"

Jackie Lou and Ricky Davao have separated but they continue to co-parent their grown children, Kenneth, Rikki Mae, and Arabella.
