Kelly Chua’s Sweet Goodbye to Her Legend Lita
When the video of the reunion went viral, it hit a raw nerve—tears streamed from everyone who saw it. Yet time flies, and now the 28‑year‑old bride must bid farewell to her beloved caret‑taker, Lita, who’s leaving for home.
For the Big Day, She Made a Surprise Entrance
On April 23, at the wedding in Singapore, Lita swooped in like a fairy—only her kind of fairy, wearing a simple dress that made her feel shy about being ogled. The bride, overjoyed, cried a little while hugging her “second mum.”
- Video captured the moment: “Cherishing every moment I have with her before she heads home.”
- All the two old ladies spent the day at Gardens by the Bay, eating pastries and enjoying the scenery.
- Later, they dived into a giant tub of frozen yogurt, and Lita whispered, “I love you,” before crying.
Why She Didn’t Need a Fancy Dress
When the family wanted to give Lita something more glamorous, she explained, “I feel very shy to wear a nice dress; otherwise other people will look at me.” Her priority was simple: to be there for the wedding.
Preparing for the Farewell Flight
Sunday morning, the family gathered to pack a balikbayan—a gift basket—filled with photo prints from the wedding, the trip in Singapore, and a few tokens to keep the memories alive.
It was a bittersweet goodbye, a testament to the deep bond between a caretaker and the family she served for 27 years. Even now, the waves of emotion linger, but everyone looks forward to the next chapter in a new country—Lita’s new adventure in the Philippines.
