Julia Barretto Reveals the Only Thing Left Missing in Her Life: A Baby

As young actress Julia Barretto marks her 24th birthday soon, she has openly admitted to fans, followers, and viewers of her sister Dani Barretto’s Youtube vlog that there is nothing more she wants in her life at the moment.

Nothing except for one thing…

“A baby!” Julia exclaimed in response to Dani’s question about what she feels she is missing at the current stage of her life.

“It’s true,” Julia said. “That’s the only thing. I just want a kid. Really, it’s really as simple as that.”

She revealed that she has yet to feel “fulfilled” because she has yet to build a family of her own. “I feel like I have a purpose in this world, and that purpose is to be a mother,” she shared.

As to when she hopes to start having children, Julia confessed that she is eying sometime within the next five years which, by then, she will be 29 years old.

“That’s just really it. That is the perfect age,” she said. “And I feel like if you want a lot of kids, you have to start early.”

And how many children does she want? Around four to five! “I want a tribe!” she gushed. “I want a bunch!”

Julia and Dani themselves are part of a big family with a few other siblings who are all close with one another and their mom, Marjorie.

Julia has previously admitted to being “in love” at the moment but she has yet to reveal who she is in a romantic relationship with. However, netizens continue to link her with her Between Maybes costar Gerald Anderson. Neither has come forward to confirm the rumors.

Meanwhile, Gerald has also confessed to being “extremely happy” with matters of the heart and coincidentally also expressed hope in getting married and having children “soon” when he guest-starred in fellow Pinoy Big Brother alumnus Joe Vargas’ YouTube vlog.
