Enrique Iglesias expressed his love for his Filipino-Spanish mom, Isabel Preysler, as she is set to release her autobiography entitled ‘Isabel Preysler: Mi Verdadera Historia (My True Story)’ on October 22.
The Latin singer-songwriter took to his Instagram account on Thursday, Oct. 2, to congratulate his mother on her recent milestone, while posting a photo of them when they were younger.
Isabel is the daughter of Carlos Preysler, the executive director of the then-Philippine Air Lines (now Philippine Airlines), and Maria Beatriz Arrastía, who is a real estate owner. She is the third of six children.
‘Congratulations to my mom on her autobiography. What an incredible life,’ he captioned his post.
Iglesias’ post was commended by his followers in the comments, including TV presenter Kim Atienza, who described Preysler as ‘one of the most beautiful Pinays.’
According to Preysler, her autobiography is her ‘most personal project’ to date, which will cover the different chapters of her life.
‘In this autobiography, I will explore the different chapters of my life – from my childhood in the Philippines to my life in the present. For the first time, I will share some of my most intimate memories. I hope you’ll all enjoy reading it,’ she wrote in Spanish.
Iglesias is the son of Preysler and Spanish singer Julio Iglesias. He is also the brother of Latin singer-heartthrob Julio Iglesias Jr.
The singer-songwriter is best known for his hit tracks ‘Bailamos,’ ‘I Like It,’ and ‘Hero,’ to name a few.
