There are two kinds of people who post on social media: 1) those who keep it simple with their captions and 2) those who create sort-of diary entries. Lucy Torres-Gomez is the latter, and her Instagram posts are interesting to read.
The former actress and now Leyte congresswoman is generous when it comes to sharing a portion of her life to her followers. These can range from random stories about her day to #throwback posts from her younger years. If you haven’t seen them, follow her right now and do a reading spree. Or, you can scroll through our favorites so far below—and then click Follow.
Humble fashion and beauty beginnings
Here, Lucy tells the story of how her aunt played dress up with her and her two sisters, Johanna and Caren. The result was three girls wearing dresses from their mom’s closet and also wearing makeup. Adorable.
Foodie anecdotes
Some of Lucy’s recent posts revolved around food. One was about her favorite butter chicken.
The other was how her husband Richard and daughter Juliana would bond over midnight snacks.
Last one is Juliana bringing home Greek food and setting them up on bed trays for some mom-daughter QT.
You’re sure to feel hungry at the end of each post.
Heartfelt stories about her family
Lucy shared wedding photos of her parents, sister, and brother, telling the story of how October is a significant month for their family.
Here’s another throwback pic: Lucy being escorted by her dad on her own wedding day. This one’s pretty emotional because she talks about her move from Leyte to Manila.
All sides of Juliana
Lucy is fond of taking stolen shots of her unica hija, especially when she’s having conversations and being affectionate with her dad. Here’s one where she said Juliana looked “very much like the mischievous prankster she once was.”
The kilig Richard posts
Just like a lot of people, Lucy isn’t shy about expressing her love and fondness for her husband, even after 20 years together. She once posted old photos from their vacations in Europe where she looked back at their memories like it was just yesterday.
And of course, this photo from 1993 taken by Richard that went viral because, as Lucy recounted, she didn’t know back then if he was taking a photo of her. After they got married in 1998, she saw the photo and remembered just how smitten she was by her husband ever since she was 12. If that’s not fate, we don’t know what it is.
