<img src='' alt='110216-GaryV.jpg' width='400' height='290' align='left' border='0'>Mr. Pure Energy Gary Valenciano couldn’t hide his joy when Samantha Godinez-Valenciano, wife of his son, Paolo, gave birth to a baby girl at 1:21am at an undisclosed hospital today, November 2. Paolo and Samantha named their baby Nataleia 'Leia' Martine.<br/><br/>'I'm speechless, dumbfounded... blessed... I remember Paolo...the day he was born,' Gary said.<br/><br/>'I'll never look at a mother the same way again. They are the superior species! I can't believe I'm a dad,' Paolo said.<br/><br/>Aside from Paolo’s parents Gary and Angeli, his siblings Gab and Kiana were also at the hospital.<br/><br/>Angeli then posted a throwback photo of Paolo and Samantha in  her Instagram and felt a little bit nostalgic.<br/><br/>“I remember when you were playmates. And now you're parents! It's still a dream for me!” she wrote.<br/><br/><center><iframe class='instagram-media instagram-media-rendered' id='instagram-embed-0' src='https://www.instagram.com/p/BMTDyFXjxwb/embed/captioned/?v=7' allowtransparency='true' frameborder='0' height='882' data-instgrm-payload-id='instagram-media-payload-0' scrolling='no' style='background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; margin: 1px; max-width: 658px; width: calc(100% - 2px); border-radius: 4px; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 0px 0px 1px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.14902) 0px 1px 10px 0px; display: block; padding: 0px;'></iframe><script async='' defer='' src='//platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js'></script></center><br/>Paolo and Samantha got married at the Manila Polo Club in February 2013.<br/><br/><br/><center><iframe src='https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FManilaGenesisEM%2Fposts%2F1507784705914749%3A0&width=500' width='500' height='728' style='border:none;overflow:hidden' scrolling='no' frameborder='0' allowtransparency='true'></iframe></center>
