In her latest swimming competition, Zia Dantes got six medals and Marian Rivera was one proud mom to see her daughter’s achievement.

There is always a parent behind the success of a child and in the case of Marian Rivera, she was beaming with pride when she saw the latest achievement of her daughter Zia Dantes during a recent swimming competition.

Zia, who has been training at the Bert Lozada Swimming School, won six medals according to the actress.

“Words can’t express how proud I am of my daughter’s incredible swimming accomplishments! She just won a total of six medals in the competition and I couldn’t be happier,” she wrote.

“Thank you, God, for showering us with these blessings! Huge thanks to Coach Angelo and Coach Miguel for their dedication and hard work in training Zia.”

Dingdong Dantes was also a proud dad, sharing the same photos Marian posted. “Behind the success of every aspiring athlete is the magic touch of their support team.”

The support of parents is crucial

This is not the first time Zia Dantes has gotten a medal for swimming. Back in March, she won a bronze medal in one of her competitions under the mentorship of the same coaches and school.

On top of sports, both Marian and Dingdong have encouraged their kids to try other activities. They also have done their respective commercials with their parents.

Now who wouldn’t be inspired by the support Marian and Dingdong show for their kids?
