Relatives said siblings set aside past conflicts as they cared for their mother in her final days.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Estrella \u201cInday\u201d Barretto, the matriarch of the Barretto family and mother of actresses Gretchen, Marjorie, and Claudine Barretto, died on\u00a0Thursday, Jan. 29. She was\u00a089, according to multiple Philippine media reports citing family confirmation. The cause of death has\u00a0not been publicly disclosed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The death was first confirmed by her son,\u00a0Joaquin \u201cJJ\u201d Barretto, who posted a brief message on social media announcing his mother\u2019s passing. No additional details were provided at the time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">In a subsequent statement,\u00a0Claudine Barretto\u00a0said the family came together following their mother\u2019s death, despite long-standing and publicly documented disputes among the siblings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cWe all did our part \u2014 JJ, Michie, Gia, G, Marjorie [and] all the apos, pati apo sa tuhod. Pantay-pantay inalagaan ang mommy. We choose peace over everything,\u201d Claudine said in a message shared on social media and later reported by entertainment news outlets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The remarks marked a rare public acknowledgment of unity among the Barretto siblings, whose internal conflicts have periodically spilled into public view over the years. Claudine\u2019s statement did not address past disputes directly and focused instead on collective caregiving during their mother\u2019s final days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Tributes also came from members of the younger generation. Children of\u00a0Marjorie Barretto\u00a0shared photos and messages remembering their grandmother, expressing gratitude and affection in posts circulated on social media and later reported by mainstream outlets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Inday Barretto was married to\u00a0Miguel Barretto, who died in 2019. The couple had seven children, several of whom became prominent figures in Philippine entertainment. Over the decades, Inday Barretto largely stayed out of the spotlight, though she was occasionally referenced in public family disputes involving her daughters.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source asianjournal.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Share Post Viber icon Viber Email The family confirmed the death of Estrella \u201cInday\u201d Barretto on Jan. 29.
