But aside from enjoying the sand and sea, the Kapamilya actress took some time from her South Asian island escape to show all the moms out there that they shouldn't be embarassed by the "imperfections" of their bodies. As a proud single mom to Alejandro, she doesn't make any effort at hiding what her body has been through.

She continues in her post, "And yes, I'm a mom. I got folds and stretch marks. It's ME!"

An hour after posting her bikini OOTD, the post reached over 15,337 likes.
