Yakira Eliana. My precious answered prayer. My greatest love. My greatest blessing. One whole year of you, and today, I finally share a little piece of my heaven with the world.'
The media personality also shared a spiritual message, referencing the biblical figure Hagar and the name 'El-roi,' which means 'the God who sees me.' This heartfelt sentiment reflects the deep significance of her daughter's arrival after years of public speculation about her personal life.
