Dennis Padilla on son Leon's birthday: 'Hope to see you soon'

Dennis Padilla took to social media to wish his son, Leon, a happy birthday.

On his Instagram account, Dennis shared a throwback photo of themselves together.
"Dear Leon... Happy birthday anak! Love you... Hope to see you soon," he said in the caption.

Dennis also added a photo of himself holding a piece of paper with more messages for Leon.

"God bless you more!" he wrote.

Leon is Dennis's son with Marjorie Barretto. They also have two daughters together, Julia and Claudia.

Marjorie and Dennis separated in 2007.

In 2022, Leon wrote an open letter for Dennis, after he posted that his kids forgot to greet him on Father's Day.

Leon said that their relationship with Dennis has been rough, mainly when the actor talked about their "private matters" in press conferences, interviews, and social media.

He also said that every time he and his sisters try to communicate with Dennis, he resorts to "shouting, cursing, and using hurtful words that traumatized" them.

Dennis then responded to Leon's letter, and said, "I am sorry [Leon,] Miss ko lang [kayo]."

In February, Dennis received a birthday message from Julia, in which he expressed his gratitude.
