Ogie Alcasid on daughter Leila's upcoming wedding: 'Iniisip ko pa lang, umiiyak na ako'


Ogie Alcasid's eldest daughter, Leila, will always be a little girl to him no matter how old she gets.

On Tuesday's "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda," the OPM icon was asked how he feels knowing that he would be walking Leila down the aisle anytime now.

"Inisiip ko pa lang ngayon, umiiyak na ako eh. Kasi ang tingin ko kasi sa panganay ko, kahit 27 na po siya, ang tingin ko pa rin sa kaniya is a little girl," he said.

In September, Leila got engaged to Filipino musician Mito Fabie in Calaca, Batangas.

The singer-songwriter also spoke highly of Leila's fiancé, Mito, even though he admitted that they did not hit it off right away.

"But I would be so proud. He is a very nice man. We did not start off on the right foot nung simula, but we understand each other, we communicate well. Saludo ako sa kaniya sa pag-aalaga niya sa anak ko," he said.

Following Leila and Mito's engagement, Ogie expressed his joy for the couple on Instagram.

"I am beyond happy for both of you. The Lord bless you both all the days of your lives and may his love be the bond that seals your everlasting union. Congratulations love you!" he wrote.

Leila and younger sister Sarah are Ogie's daughters with his ex-wife, Michelle Van Eimeren.

He and Regine have a son together, Nate.
