Ellen Adarna takes another win in the motherhood department with son Elias Modesto Cruz's recent success.
On December 12, 2023, at Santa Isabel College of Manila, five-year-old Elias showcased his musical talent with a charming rendition of the classic nursery rhyme, Mary Had a Little Lamb, in a duet with his piano teacher, Ryan Aviso.
Donning a crisp white button-down shirt, formal slacks, and a pair of shiny black shoes, Elias appeared every bit the dedicated prodigy with every coordinated stride he took.
Beaming with overflowing pride, Ellen shared the proud moment on Instagram later that day, expressing her joy with the caption, "Proud Mama [heart emojis] thank you teacher [music emojis]."
As soon as Elias walked onto the stage, the supportive cheers of stepdad Derek Ramsay, Ellen's husband, echoed in the background as he affectionately called out, "Let's go Babi!"—a sweet nickname Derek gave Elias.
Taking a bow after wrapping up his performance, applause resonated within the conservatory, affirming the rewards of his dedicated piano practice.

They presently have a co-parenting set-up.
