Isabelle Daza’s son, Baltie, recreated his grandma Gloria Diaz’s iconic Miss Universe preliminaries answer.

On Instagram, Isabelle uploaded a clip of Baltie eating rice and barbecue using his hands.

Isabelle asked him, “Baltie, is it true that Filipinos eat with their hands?”

“Why? Do you eat with your feet?” the little boy answered, referencing his grandma’s iconic answer in the Miss Universe 1969 preliminary round.

“Baltie is so proud to be Pinoy,” Isabelle wrote in the caption. “When your grandmother has iconic comebacks.”

Isabelle and her husband, Adrien Semblat, welcomed Baltie in 2018. He was followed by Valentin in 2021 and Esmeralda in 2023.

Meanwhile, Gloria Diaz is set to star in the upcoming GMA Network, Viu Philippines, and CreaZion Studios series "Beauty Empire" alongside Barbie Forteza, Kyline Alcantara, Ruffa Gutierrez, and more.
