Kapuso actor Dennis Trillo took to Instagram to greet wife Jennylyn Mercado on Mother's Day.
In his post, Dennis, who is recently seen in GMA Network's Voltes V: Legacy, thanked Jennylyn for the love and sacrifices for him and their children.
Dennis and Jennylyn tied the knot in an intimate civil wedding on November 15, 2021.
The couple welcomed their first child, Dylan, on April 25, 2022.
Both Kapuso stars have kids from their previous relationships.
Dennis' son, Calix Andreas, with ex-girlfriend Carlene Aguilar will turn 16 this year.
Meanwhile, Jennylyn's son, Alex Jazz, with former flame Patrick Garcia is currently 14 years old.

He continued, "Ikaw ay hindi lang ilaw ng tahanan kundi haligi ng atin pag-ibig at ng ating pamilya.
"Maraming salamat sa lahat ng pagmamahal, pag-unawa, mga sakripisyo’t paghihirap mo para sa aming lahat.

BLENDED FAMILY
The setup in the household of Jennylyn and Dennis — given their kids from previous relationships — is referred to nowadays as a blended family.
Dennis told Modern Parenting in an interview published in January 2023, “A blended family is like a regular and normal family.
"May mga ibang normal family pero medyo dysfunctional sila.
"Sa amin, kahit blended kami at modern ang setup, we see to it na masaya ang bawat isa and talagang solid kahit ano pang tawag diyan.”
Jennylyn and Dennis were together as girlfriend and boyfriend for years prior to getting married.
This means that Calix and Alex have known each other for years as well, with Jennylyn and Dennis making a conscious effort to bring along both kids on their trips and adventures together.
"Para silang sabay lumaki,” said Jennylyn.
"Nagkikita sila kahit nung hindi pa kami magkasama sa isang house."
Dennis added, "Shineshare namin yung mga interest namin sa kanila para mas madali kaming maka-relate sa kanila."
