Sarah's Mom tells her immigration story from Philippines to United Arab Emirates, and then to Canada, as well as her love story of meeting and marrying a Sudanese Muslim man.
Your mother is such a strong woman! She did the right thing. Her husband asked for a divorce and didn't wallow in self-pity. She remade her life by applying for a visa to Canada. Brava! Well done. I love to see strong women thriving and taking control of their lives.
Jenna Chrisphonte Wallow in self-pity, so stron:- what tosh, how silly, weakness is not a bad thing as often perceived by other people, and strength is over emphasised by some people which is not always a good thing.
Her Sudanese family is no better than her husband's Korean family. To break up this lady's marriage after 3 children (their own blood as well) is beyond me and pure evil.
I find it so weird how Sarah’s dad didn’t like the fact that she’s going to marry an Asian man who’s not Muslim! He married an Asian woman who wasn’t Muslim either! Also how Sarah was saying he basically wanted a guy to just ring his door bell and ask for her hand in marriage before they even dated when Sarah’s Mum and dad got pregnant before marriage!
He doesn't want her to go down the same road( future divorce)-interracial marriage is extra work and puts excess stress on the couple and the extended family. But in the end it's their love and choice.
In Islam , men are allowed to marry muslims, christian and Jewish women but women are only allowed to marry Muslims ... Justin isn't religious which probably turned the dad off even more along with the fact that he had a failed interracial marriage...
Religious people are hypocrites, so none of that is surprising. And Muslim men can marry anyone because it's assumed that if there are children, the man will "lead" and the children will also be Muslim. A woman's role is diminished within the family (which is hilarious, because women are the most involved with child rearing, in any culture), so, a Muslim woman must marry a Muslim man in order for the children to be led toward Islam...since, again, the emphasis is on the father "leading" the family, not the mother.
I feel bad for your mother she converted and your dad just married another woman behind her back. Even if they had problems between themselves that's just wrong.
I tell you. I am sad that he did not honor his words! I hope she is back to the worship of true God who is merciful. See how God opened others doors & had your dignity restored? Praise God.!!
Yeah cuz ppl from other religions never divorce and marry for the second time? Stfu hypocrites She converted hust because you can’t marry in dubai unless you both are muslim, she just wanted to marry the british citizen Get your facts straight
It's been mentioned many times here but I'll say it again, your mom is amazing. Very warm personality, friendly, non-judgmental and all around good person.
My husband and I are both Latinos. his parents didnt(and don't) approve our relationship. when we got married, no one from his family was in our wedding. Fast forward to today. We have 2 kids And we been married for 15years. He always tell me We(our2 kids &me)are his family. plus My Family loves him very much. FYI, we are very happy and still madly in Love.
This video was so touching to me bc I am half Filipino and black, and her story of how she met your father was very similar to my mothers story! Thank you for making this video 😊❤️
Greetings from the UNITED ARAB EMIRATES 🇦🇪 DUBAI 🙋🏻♀️ Gosh! The combination between Sudanese and Philippines race is a amazing,, look at u!! pretty girl.
YOUR MOM IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL! GOD BLESS HER! SHE IS TRULY AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL! THE APPLE DOES NOT FALL FAR FROM THE TREE... Sarah now we know where you get your beauty from....
I’m Sudanese so I definitely understand what ur mom is saying but never give up on who u love💕 I would never let my Sudanese family stop me from who I love.
Sarah's father went through the same thing with his father in terms of marrying outside the race/culture. So when his daughter decided she would marry a Korean, you'd think he'd be more understanding, afterall he started the ball rolling when he married a Filipino woman. Why is it ok for him to marry outside of the race/culture but not his daughter??? Ohhh the hypocrisy. On a more positive note, Sarah and her Mom are soooo sweet!
GRASSROOTS With Sarah’s case, her father disapproved their relationship not because of Justin’s race, but his religion. He wanted his daughter to marry a Muslim man.
My father cheated on my mom and as I got older my mom would tell me how he constantly made stupid financial decisions without her input or consent. We constantly moved and didnt have a stable childhood. My fathers parents never accepted my mom and treated my brothers and I differently than my cousins. Eventually they divorced and im happily estranged from my father and that side of the family. The important people in my life are my mom, my wife and kids.
Omg I never knew this was a like a thing with Filipinos but now that I think about it, my 3 closest Filipino friends are all hella musically talented (2 pianos, 1 cello)
In a Muslim Rules . A Muslim women’s are not allowed to get marriage form un Muslim man . But a Muslim man are allowed to get Marriage from un Muslim women’s.
Your mom is amazing! She's so positive, optimistic, understanding and supportive. Very open-minded as well. She has definitely inspired me with just this video.
Thanks for introducing your mother. She is so sweet. My heart goes out to her for that tough situation she found herself in after so many years of marriage. She's super strong to do the hard work on her own to provide for her babies!
Oh wow, my dad is a retired Med-Tech and my mom is a retired ballroom dance instructor!!! Your mom is beautiful!! I’m also Filipino and my husband is Japanese!!
Thank you for sharing! I’m Ethiopian and Japanese. My dad’s family didn’t want my Japanese mom either. The African families don’t play! Love your story. God bless
@@voxnihili7097 Because it sure as hell doesn't. Racism isn't simply interpersonal prejudice. It encompasses structural and institutional dynamics and power in society.
You and your Mom are beautiful. I also had an interracial marriage. I am an African American women who married A Pakistani man. I was married for 25 years and had 2 children. My story is long but hang in there and stay strong.
Vanessa Giles ohhhh wow !! MashAllah!! So happy it worked for you guys!! One of my best friends ended up not marrying her love bcz she is African American and he too is Pakistani but Omgosh his family refused and made life miserable for them and they decided to part ways :(
Your mom is super adorable. You are so fortunate to have been raised by her. She was truly a strong person as well, to have moved on from her divorce and made a good life for herself and her children. You now have to be strong for your husband and daughter regardless of your in- laws treatment of you now or their son, make sure your daughter is exposed to your mom as much as possible. She is so positive and sweet and will, no doubt, be a good grandparent. Thank you for sharing your story and your mom's.
Tbh the Korean culture is A LOT like the Arab culture. In the Arab culture parents prefer that their kids marry an Arab, even not just any Arab but an Arab from their own country. It's veeery hard for an Arab to marry a non Arab, because the family is so against it. And when the love the Arab fought so hard for fades after a couple of years, that's when the family comes in! The Arab partner is not so much in love with the person any more, so she/he starts having second guesses. And because the parents don't really acknowledge his/her marriage to another nationality, they look for ways to change their son's/ daughter's mind. They think "he's just confused, he'll grow uo and change his/her mind later." And so they do. Family plays a BIG role in marriage in the Arab and Korean culture, because in marriage you'll not stay deeply in love for the rest of your life. You'll have to deal with each other for the sake of kids and the spent years together. For Korean families, I've seen a lot that don't acknowledge when their daughter/son marries a non Korean. They treat it like it's a temporary thing and their kid doesn't know what he/she is doing. They'll always bring it up and try to change his mind. If you want to make it work, RUN away from his family. Like in the Arab culture, in the Korean culture you're a sinner if you disobey your parents. If he goes back to Korea, not only his family is going to bash him, but other people will bash him too and call him an illoyal son for going against his parents wishes. I'm sorry for being so negative, I'm just trying to be honest. But again, if you want to keep your man, keep him as far as possible from his family. P.s. this doesn't just apply for non Arab partners. In general when the parents don't like your spouse, Arab or non Arab, they try to end the relationship.
GdAkaDaesungsSugarDaddy . That is with any culture because am part Egyptian and Moroccan like wisely Nigeria, Liyba Tunisian, Algerian with some Sudanese lineage
Her dad is not Arab, he is black and originally from Sudan (which is a predominantly Muslim country. He was living in Dubai and met her mom, who was from the Philippines there. He was objecting to the fact that her future husband was not a Muslim and would not convert, not because he is Korean.
Love Love Love your mom. Her thinking is so forward and evolved. Please let her know that her book of life is no where near coming to an end. She is gorgeous and still has it going on. Her next love chapter should be near.
First HI. 2nd your mom is so young, but more important humble & smart. 3rd I Said it in one of your videos . I say that I was ssssoooo sure that your future mother in law had gone through rejection from her husband side and that she is holding anger on her. I said it, because I'm old and with age comes wisdom. That's why I can't understand why she can not even give you a chance to at least have a conversation. Just remember that God allows everything for a reason and a season. Just enjoy your love and cherish your mama always.
I guess there’s at least this reason, where most asian call a girl beautiful when she has bright skin (which is not true at all!). Probably that’s why she don’t like Sarah, and Korean parents seem to be having this standard of a woman from her beauty and her family background.
Lol, hair touching count. Loved the video and hearing your moms story. And your poor mother... Your dad did her wrong and cheated on her :( That's so sad. He is missing out deeply. I hope she finds a new love worthy of her sweetness and kindness.
ou well ... my parents are divorced .. and my mum is really convinced in one story (in her favour of course) .. but both me and my brother know that's not the case ...... so don't judge until you hear the other side ..and the one in between .... I think that sarah and her sister's assessment are much closer to the truth ... it's never that simple
I can trully see the love you have for your mom. The way you look at her and how big your smile is. Your mother's love for her children is extremely bright. She is very strong and able. She will find love one day but if she doesn't I think she will be content with just having her children and grandchildren around her. Blessing abundantly to you and your beautiful family.
Temujin Khan if your not black shut up, people always think they can speak on black Americans when you don’t know s**t about black Americans accept the stereotypical ish you see on tv so be quiet
Thank you for sharing your mom's story. She was so eloquent, upfront and candid. Your mother is beautiful and a very AMAZING woman. She is a fighter and go-getter; an inspiration to me as a woman to never quit or give up on your passions and profession.
your Mom is beautiful, smart and responsible who took care of her children, not like your father who only thinks about himself, and got married to someone else while still married to your Mom, so proud of her being a Filipina, your so lucky to have her as your Mom
After watching this video. I am shocked that you’d still try to keep in contact with your father... especially seeing your other video about how he treats your relationship with your husband and your daughter. I would have cut him out of my life a long time ago and never look back. You have an amazingly supportive mother and husband you should focus on them for your daughter. I don’t think having people like your father in her life would be beneficial for you or your daughter.
Hey mom thanks for raising beautiful people. Your addition to your family is a rainbow of lovely human beings. Keep loving without color. Great, great people
Mom is very smart and sweet:). She is very respectful even though I’m sure inside as a mama she must be pissed lol!!! Mama, we understand!! Lol! My stepmom is Korean, my dad is Japanese. I have 5 sisters, we stepdaughters all married white guys ( yeah not Asian), and one of my step sisters has a black boyfriend:). She loves us all as we are all happy and that’s all that she cares about:). We are all financially well off but as my father is quite wealthy, we are not rich, but they are proud we can sustain our own families comfortably. His mom hopefully will come around as I pray that this is troubling her so much that she is not a happy person! Mom!!! Choose happiness for you and your wonderful son!!!! Please!!! 😀
Also look at who he loves! She is drop dead gorgeous!!! You will be the envy of all your friends as your future grand babies will be sooooo beautiful!!!! My dad also disapproved of my husband, so much that we didn’t speak for 3 years!!! After we made up he has been the best grandfather ever!!! Both my children are biology majors and one is graduating in a few weeks! Both are studying to be doctors and are just absolutely beautiful!!!
I absolutely love your mother's answer...it's not like your losing something...you are gaining. So true...any family would be lucky to get you as an addition Sarah. You are phenomenon and it is your future mother in law that will be losing if she doesn't embrace you as a daughter.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR COLORS IN THE BACKGROUND! These are the same 3 colors of my future kitchen. And your mother is SO gorgeous. I now see where u get your good looks. And she’s very young looking too. So you’ll age gracefully. Nice video. It’s so nice to see a daughter interview the matriarch of her family. And even more so to see the sincere interest in everything she has to say. I love it!
Omg,,what an interview ,I love the way u asked her all the questions that I was wondering about, The way you asked them was so respectful and done in a way that she told u everything without hesitating. ,,Smart girl ,,,this is so interesting ,,
Sarah, you have a beautiful mom! I love philipino people... so smart and nice. So the story repeated... when we mature we see things differently. It is nice to have her by your side!
So glad to see you and your mom.. and the family dynamic. Very interesting; especially hearing about Justin's mother and her ordeal.. She should break the cycle or maybe she thinks its and initiation of sorts. Your mother is a beautiful and worm woman. Can't wait to meet your dad and the other siblings. Anyhow.. Have a happy holiday.... until the next video. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
My heart breaks for your mom. However I admire her strength and courage. His family members acted rather cowardly towards her. God however he is called does not like ugly. I’m so glad it worked out for her and hope she found a man who is courageous enough and worthy of her love. How does your father’s family treat you guys Sarah?
You have a LOVELY, kind mother, unlike Justin's mother *ugh*. She didn't deserve the raw deal she got from your father - how sad and cruel, the way he treated your mom with the divorce. :( BEWARE Sarah, I pray the same thing doesn't happen to you down the line with Justin since he is controlled so much by his mother! You both are beautiful and classy ladies.
I believe that Sarah's husband is a better man than that. I also believe that he is honest and sincere in his affection for her. I believe that if he's unhappy, he'd communicate it to her. He doesn't come off as the type of man to take her for granted. He seems to be the kind of guy that when he makes a decision, he stands by it. I believe that he is the "for better or for worse" guy. I definitely wish Sarah all of the happiness in the world.
It was great seeing your mom!!! Her story is so interesting and it was beautiful to see your close relationship and her support of you. When I watched your first videos, I thought about the fact that your fiancé's mother had likely experienced rejection by her husband's family and was disappointed by your relationship because she'd wanted to prove to his family that her son would still have and be the best...Unfortunately, the fact that your fiancé is now doing the same thing as his father most likely would have been frowned upon by his grandparents (in her mind) or at least not the best that he could do, which would be something that would negate what she had possibly set out to prove she could still do for her son even though they'd disapproved of her. I hope you can follow that thought. I definitely don't agree, but I wondered if that could play a role. Anyway, always good to see your videos and that hair touching count is pure gold!!! LOL. Good job on the win!!! Hahaha.
IsPrettyFaithful you just gave a very different viewpoint that i’ve never thought of. My mum disapproves of my boyfriend right now and i’m now thinking it may be because my maternal grandma’s approval/acceptance would be extremely important to her since my maternal grandma disapproved of my mum getting married to my dad.
@Karina Williams I definitely agree that Sarah is a great woman and that she has a lot to offer. The reality is that his family, if they open their hearts, have everything to gain. I hope you didn’t misunderstand me😇 At the same time, I also believe in attempting to understand from another person’s perspective because often times it helps us to be GENUINELY kind and forgiving (and if all else fails, just being NICE instead) when we’re in a situation where, while it is not ideal, we really want it to work because we love someone. From what I see, its important to Sarah that they both are respectful to his parents and she’s thankful to them for their son despite the circumstance. I think if we try to step back from our view and our very real experiences and feelings, it really helps us in the end although other people may benefit. Even if we’re wrong about the real reasons, at least, we’re attempting to do things that will help us to continue to open our own hearts. Honestly, some people don’t even realize why they’re being a certain way and then definitely can’t vocalize it especially when there’s a difference in culture or subculture.
@yumyumyomyum Definitely could be the case. I think sometimes we forget that acceptance of one’s children (or not) can feel like acceptance or disapproval of the parents no matter who it is that has a positive or negative response (family, friends...that stranger sitting at the next table in a restaurant). How we’re able to deal with those feelings can definitely affect how we react.
I've experienced this, but in a religious point of view. We were both Hispanic and were madly in love, but her Pentecostal family soon found out that I was raised in a catholic household and my mom strongly believed in the catholic faith. I converted but her parents always hated me and looked down on me and my family. She would always deny it but when she decided to end it, she made it super clear. Its terrible when people hate you/ look down on you just because of some things you might not ever have control over.
I am also Sudanese and I was so surprised because Sudanese people can be very forgiving 🤷🏽♀️But anyways your mom is so sweet and I am glad she defended her love 😊
That is sad that your future mother experience what she is putting you through and is repeating history. Your mum told her story so beautifully. It was nice getting to know you and your family.
My parents also came from the Philippines, I was born in Sharjah and my sister was born in Dubai and we all moved to Canada shortly after. Don't know anyone else who has a similar story! :) So glad to have found your channel
......so fun to watch! Thanks for sharing. It was interesting how surprised Sarah was when Mom shared that the Sudanese family wasn't excited about her connection with her son.
Sarah......this why i go hard for Justin to stand up for you...because your are indeed a diamond.....and like you my daughter is name Sarah..but Sarah Nicole......and i would not want a man to miss treat my princess (which both your names mean..Lol)..My daughter is of mixed culture.....i am black and my husband was half black and white ( his father was white and his mother was black).... even though my husband had fair skin....but any way...i am a few years older then you and yet my daughter is in her teens...she has this same spirit like you of being kind..head strong and beautiful..like i tell her and i will tell you...You both deserve to be treated like Queens....though your name means princess..that is the way we moms treat you...a man that marries you both...HAD BETTER TREAT YOU LIKE THE BLACK QUEENS YOU ARE!!!..ok..and i am sure Sarah..your mom feels the same way....i have three kids..two sons and a daughter...(the irony)..but like your mom..i worked hard to take care of my kids....and i want the best for them...i will not tell them who to marry..but i want them to know their self worth...just like you (if you were my little sister or my own Sarah ..daughter)...because Sarah you are worth for more then diamonds...and there is no other QUEEN like you on this earth.....This is what i tell my own daughter.... always know your worth ok..and never be treated no less then the Queen you are blessings...
Sarah is so sweet and young and naive. Asking mom repeatedly, "what made you decide" this and that. In many peoples' lives you don't get to decide. You go where there is opportunity for you and jump through hoops to get work visas and resident visas and such. Filipinos' economic diaspora is a major part of their culture. Due to abject poverty in the Philippines, Filipinos are workers all over the world, wherever they can find jobs and survive and send money back to family. A lot of practical sacrifice and emotional toughness in such a sweet-natured people.
You and your Mom are very sweet!💞 I would be interested in meeting your other siblings and hearing abt the effect of being raised in a Sudanese/Filopean household. Thank you for being so open with us.💟
This is beautiful ladies, thank you for your mother doing this interview on a personal matter in her life. Honestly I can say for your mom, it was truly a blessing considering the time that your parents met, interracial couples.. And or dating was still less accepted than today. But they over came thay barrier.. Plus the cultural differences. Amazing 💖💖❤ A beautiful strong and loving family.
I have to say..Sarah your mom looks like your sister..both of you are lovely and BEAUTIFUL.....i can only imagine how lovely your own daughter will be!!..Not to sound rude....But Justin better marry you..because Sarah You are beautiful.....smart and wonderful...he will be fool to let a wonderful woman like you go...your mom is a lady of indeed Beauty and Grace..... #superModelMom #SuperModelSarah blessings to you both Beauty Queens!!

Yep! Typical religioutard. 😂
your baby is going to change the world.I just know it.she will be beautiful and smart.take care!

and justins mother is the same (just watched that part) lol
Exactly
In a Muslim Rules . A Muslim women’s are not allowed to get marriage form un Muslim man . But a Muslim man are allowed to get Marriage from un Muslim women’s.
Hasan z yea seems like Muslim rules just benefit the men & cater to men...I’m sure it’s because a man wrote those rules
Your mom is amazing! She's so positive, optimistic, understanding and supportive. Very open-minded as well. She has definitely inspired me with just this video.
you two make me so proud to be a filipino woman, your strength and perseverance is so uplifting ❤️
your Mother is Amazing, can`t imagine what she must have gone through to get you all safely to Canada...… much Respect..
Your mom is beautiful. She has a sweet spirit. I see where you get your beauty, and sweet spirit from. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for introducing your mother. She is so sweet. My heart goes out to her for that tough situation she found herself in after so many years of marriage. She's super strong to do the hard work on her own to provide for her babies!

It is becoming that way in America, these days. And people think reverse racism doesn't exist. It sure the hell does.
@@voxnihili7097 Because it sure as hell doesn't. Racism isn't simply interpersonal prejudice. It encompasses structural and institutional dynamics and power in society.
@@disorientalism I don't care what you think. You're just another racist telling me that I can't experience racism. Racism at its finest.
@@voxnihili7097 OK, Becky. Just ignore history, centuries of intellectual exegesis, and live in your deluded fantasy land. ✌
@@disorientalism Exactly. You're a racist. Don't try to tell me otherwise because you're not fooling anyone.
You and your Mom are beautiful. I also had an interracial marriage. I am an African American women who married A Pakistani man. I was married for 25 years and had 2 children. My story is long but hang in there and stay strong.
Vanessa Giles hmm a Pakistani??? That is interesting and I've never met anyone married to one.
Vanessa Giles are you still married
Vanessa Giles. Wow. That is an unusual combination. I'm sure you have an interesting story.
i bet she converted and now they are divorced
Vanessa Giles ohhhh wow !! MashAllah!! So happy it worked for you guys!! One of my best friends ended up not marrying her love bcz she is African American and he too is Pakistani but Omgosh his family refused and made life miserable for them and they decided to part ways :(
Your mom is super adorable. You are so fortunate to have been raised by her. She was truly a strong person as well, to have moved on from her divorce and made a good life for herself and her children. You now have to be strong for your husband and daughter regardless of your in- laws treatment of you now or their son, make sure your daughter is exposed to your mom as much as possible. She is so positive and sweet and will, no doubt, be a good grandparent. Thank you for sharing your story and your mom's.
MashaAllah! You and your mother are so beautiful! She reminds me a lot of my mother and makes me miss her so much 😢 God bless you both ❤❤
You dad and his family are terrible. I’m so sorry your mother had to go through this 🙁
Tbh the Korean culture is A LOT like the Arab culture. In the Arab culture parents prefer that their kids marry an Arab, even not just any Arab but an Arab from their own country. It's veeery hard for an Arab to marry a non Arab, because the family is so against it. And when the love the Arab fought so hard for fades after a couple of years, that's when the family comes in! The Arab partner is not so much in love with the person any more, so she/he starts having second guesses. And because the parents don't really acknowledge his/her marriage to another nationality, they look for ways to change their son's/ daughter's mind. They think "he's just confused, he'll grow uo and change his/her mind later." And so they do. Family plays a BIG role in marriage in the Arab and Korean culture, because in marriage you'll not stay deeply in love for the rest of your life. You'll have to deal with each other for the sake of kids and the spent years together. For Korean families, I've seen a lot that don't acknowledge when their daughter/son marries a non Korean. They treat it like it's a temporary thing and their kid doesn't know what he/she is doing. They'll always bring it up and try to change his mind. If you want to make it work, RUN away from his family. Like in the Arab culture, in the Korean culture you're a sinner if you disobey your parents. If he goes back to Korea, not only his family is going to bash him, but other people will bash him too and call him an illoyal son for going against his parents wishes. I'm sorry for being so negative, I'm just trying to be honest. But again, if you want to keep your man, keep him as far as possible from his family.
P.s. this doesn't just apply for non Arab partners. In general when the parents don't like your spouse, Arab or non Arab, they try to end the relationship.
GdAkaDaesungsSugarDaddy . That is with any culture because am part Egyptian and Moroccan like wisely Nigeria, Liyba Tunisian, Algerian with some Sudanese lineage
Her dad is not Arab, he is black and originally from Sudan (which is a predominantly Muslim country. He was living in Dubai and met her mom, who was from the Philippines there. He was objecting to the fact that her future husband was not a Muslim and would not convert, not because he is Korean.
Love Love Love your mom. Her thinking is so forward and evolved. Please let her know that her book of life is no where near coming to an end. She is gorgeous and still has it going on. Her next love chapter should be near.
First HI. 2nd your mom is so young, but more important humble & smart. 3rd I Said it in one of your videos . I say that I was ssssoooo sure that your future mother in law had gone through rejection from her husband side and that she is holding anger on her. I said it, because I'm old and with age comes wisdom. That's why I can't understand why she can not even give you a chance to at least have a conversation. Just remember that God allows everything for a reason and a season. Just enjoy your love and cherish your mama always.
she will regret because she will have no relationship with her future grandchildren
I guess there’s at least this reason, where most asian call a girl beautiful when she has bright skin (which is not true at all!). Probably that’s why she don’t like Sarah, and Korean parents seem to be having this standard of a woman from her beauty and her family background.
Lol, hair touching count. Loved the video and hearing your moms story. And your poor mother... Your dad did her wrong and cheated on her :( That's so sad. He is missing out deeply. I hope she finds a new love worthy of her sweetness and kindness.
Moon Light, yes, the hair touching was terribly distracting and annoying. Probably due to nerves. Very unfortunate.
Something happened ---> Sarah. I was sad however to hear of the divorce story. Dad made a huge mistake.
ou well ... my parents are divorced .. and my mum is really convinced in one story (in her favour of course) .. but both me and my brother know that's not the case ...... so don't judge until you hear the other side ..and the one in between .... I think that sarah and her sister's assessment are much closer to the truth ... it's never that simple
same. the kids know both sides so they have a better opinion on what happened.
Moms dad was right.
I can trully see the love you have for your mom. The way you look at her and how big your smile is. Your mother's love for her children is extremely bright. She is very strong and able. She will find love one day but if she doesn't I think she will be content with just having her children and grandchildren around her. Blessing abundantly to you and your beautiful family.
I am a new viewer. I get so emotional.
I can see your mom is a good , strong person. She raised you guys the right way.
God Bless you & family always.
also as a black woman in America I think its important to show parental respect ...good job mom, she taught you well❤
Tiffany love same
Yup compared to some black americans
Temujin Khan if your not black shut up, people always think they can speak on black Americans when you don’t know s**t about black Americans accept the stereotypical ish you see on tv so be quiet
If u all r saying Sarah is black, obviously Temujin Khan is black too. Just look at Sarah alongside her mother.
Tiffany love Parents also have to earn respect. She certainly did.
Thank you for sharing your mom's story. She was so eloquent, upfront and candid. Your mother is beautiful and a very AMAZING woman. She is a fighter and go-getter; an inspiration to me as a woman to never quit or give up on your passions and profession.
your Mom is beautiful, smart and responsible who took care of her children, not like your father who only thinks about himself, and got married to someone else while still married to your Mom, so proud of her being a Filipina, your so lucky to have her as your Mom
Liza Villanueva he took care of His children according to her,she Says in another vid that she's daddy's Girl and her dad is "the best"
I hope you’re mom finds love again she’s so beautiful, sweet and perfect.
After watching this video. I am shocked that you’d still try to keep in contact with your father... especially seeing your other video about how he treats your relationship with your husband and your daughter. I would have cut him out of my life a long time ago and never look back. You have an amazingly supportive mother and husband you should focus on them for your daughter. I don’t think having people like your father in her life would be beneficial for you or your daughter.
Such a beautiful woman with a wonderful soul.... Love from India
Sarah you are a good interviewer. Thanks for sharing.
Your mom is the best Sarah. God bless her. She has a special place in heaven.
both you ladies are so. beautiful.
Hey mom thanks for raising beautiful people.
Your addition to your family is a rainbow of lovely human beings.
Keep loving without color.
Great, great people
Mom is very smart and sweet:). She is very respectful even though I’m sure inside as a mama she must be pissed lol!!! Mama, we understand!! Lol! My stepmom is Korean, my dad is Japanese. I have 5 sisters, we stepdaughters all married white guys ( yeah not Asian), and one of my step sisters has a black boyfriend:). She loves us all as we are all happy and that’s all that she cares about:). We are all financially well off but as my father is quite wealthy, we are not rich, but they are proud we can sustain our own families comfortably. His mom hopefully will come around as I pray that this is troubling her so much that she is not a happy person! Mom!!! Choose happiness for you and your wonderful son!!!! Please!!! 😀
Also look at who he loves! She is drop dead gorgeous!!! You will be the envy of all your friends as your future grand babies will be sooooo beautiful!!!! My dad also disapproved of my husband, so much that we didn’t speak for 3 years!!! After we made up he has been the best grandfather ever!!! Both my children are biology majors and one is graduating in a few weeks! Both are studying to be doctors and are just absolutely beautiful!!!
You got your sense of smiles, beauty and intelligence from your mom❤️
I absolutely love your mother's answer...it's not like your losing something...you are gaining. So true...any family would be lucky to get you as an addition Sarah. You are phenomenon and it is your future mother in law that will be losing if she doesn't embrace you as a daughter.
Sarah, you and your sweet Mama are too adorable. And both of you are beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR COLORS IN THE BACKGROUND! These are the same 3 colors of my future kitchen. And your mother is SO gorgeous. I now see where u get your good looks. And she’s very young looking too. So you’ll age gracefully. Nice video. It’s so nice to see a daughter interview the matriarch of her family. And even more so to see the sincere interest in everything she has to say. I love it!
Your mom has a cute personality and it doesn't hurt that she's adorable. It's obvious she succeeded in raising you well.
God Bless her heart for being so forgiven with your heartless Dad. I am Filipino too, I do not think I will so nice!!! Three kids.
Omg,,what an interview ,I love the way u asked her all the questions that I was wondering about, The way you asked them was so respectful and done in a way that she told u everything without hesitating. ,,Smart girl ,,,this is so interesting ,,
I'm more infatuated by your couch. They are so clean and beautiful. Great video!
Sarah, you have a beautiful mom! I love philipino people... so smart and nice. So the story repeated... when we mature we see things differently. It is nice to have her by your side!
So glad to see you and your mom.. and the family dynamic. Very interesting; especially hearing about Justin's mother and her ordeal.. She should break the cycle or maybe she thinks its and initiation of sorts. Your mother is a beautiful and worm woman. Can't wait to meet your dad and the other siblings. Anyhow.. Have a happy holiday.... until the next video. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
My heart breaks for your mom. However I admire her strength and courage.
His family members acted rather cowardly towards her. God however he is called does not like ugly. I’m so glad it worked out for her and hope she found a man who is courageous enough and worthy of her love.
How does your father’s family treat you guys Sarah?
I agree 100%
You have a LOVELY, kind mother, unlike Justin's mother *ugh*. She didn't deserve the raw deal she got from your father - how sad and cruel, the way he treated your mom with the divorce. :(
BEWARE Sarah, I pray the same thing doesn't happen to you down the line with Justin since he is controlled so much by his mother! You both are beautiful and classy ladies.
I believe that Sarah's husband is a better man than that. I also believe that he is honest and sincere in his affection for her. I believe that if he's unhappy, he'd communicate it to her. He doesn't come off as the type of man to take her for granted. He seems to be the kind of guy that when he makes a decision, he stands by it. I believe that he is the "for better or for worse" guy. I definitely wish Sarah all of the happiness in the world.
Quiana Fair ^^^^^
If my dad treated my mom that way, I wouldn't even deal with him. Or VV.
Fortunately Korean men can't marry 4 wives. So don't think she will end up the same fate as her mom.
You have such a beautiful, kind and understanding mom..
Salute to your mom ms.sarah.
It was great seeing your mom!!! Her story is so interesting and it was beautiful to see your close relationship and her support of you.
When I watched your first videos, I thought about the fact that your fiancé's mother had likely experienced rejection by her husband's family and was disappointed by your relationship because she'd wanted to prove to his family that her son would still have and be the best...Unfortunately, the fact that your fiancé is now doing the same thing as his father most likely would have been frowned upon by his grandparents (in her mind) or at least not the best that he could do, which would be something that would negate what she had possibly set out to prove she could still do for her son even though they'd disapproved of her.
I hope you can follow that thought. I definitely don't agree, but I wondered if that could play a role. Anyway, always good to see your videos and that hair touching count is pure gold!!! LOL. Good job on the win!!! Hahaha.
IsPrettyFaithful you just gave a very different viewpoint that i’ve never thought of. My mum disapproves of my boyfriend right now and i’m now thinking it may be because my maternal grandma’s approval/acceptance would be extremely important to her since my maternal grandma disapproved of my mum getting married to my dad.
@Karina Williams I definitely agree that Sarah is a great woman and that she has a lot to offer. The reality is that his family, if they open their hearts, have everything to gain. I hope you didn’t misunderstand me😇
At the same time, I also believe in attempting to understand from another person’s perspective because often times it helps us to be GENUINELY kind and forgiving (and if all else fails, just being NICE instead) when we’re in a situation where, while it is not ideal, we really want it to work because we love someone. From what I see, its important to Sarah that they both are respectful to his parents and she’s thankful to them for their son despite the circumstance. I think if we try to step back from our view and our very real experiences and feelings, it really helps us in the end although other people may benefit. Even if we’re wrong about the real reasons, at least, we’re attempting to do things that will help us to continue to open our own hearts.
Honestly, some people don’t even realize why they’re being a certain way and then definitely can’t vocalize it especially when there’s a difference in culture or subculture.
@yumyumyomyum Definitely could be the case. I think sometimes we forget that acceptance of one’s children (or not) can feel like acceptance or disapproval of the parents no matter who it is that has a positive or negative response (family, friends...that stranger sitting at the next table in a restaurant). How we’re able to deal with those feelings can definitely affect how we react.
I like your mom. She is a good person. She did a great job of raising your and your siblings.
I've experienced this, but in a religious point of view. We were both Hispanic and were madly in love, but her Pentecostal family soon found out that I was raised in a catholic household and my mom strongly believed in the catholic faith. I converted but her parents always hated me and looked down on me and my family. She would always deny it but when she decided to end it, she made it super clear. Its terrible when people hate you/ look down on you just because of some things you might not ever have control over.
YOUR MOM IS SO SWEET AND BEAUTIFUL. SHE DID A LOT TO MAKE SURE HER CHILDREN WERE LOVED AND PROTECTED.
I am also Sudanese and I was so surprised because Sudanese people can be very forgiving 🤷🏽♀️But anyways your mom is so sweet and I am glad she defended her love 😊
Wow. I admire your mom. She is a strong woman. Raising three children and supporting siblings and brave enough to move to Dubai and Canada
Stunning,Sarah,she is,,like Mother,like daughter.....
Your mom is so sweet 💖 she reminds me of my mommy, I just wanted to hug her throughout the video 💖
Your mum is sweet. This was a very good vlog...well done guys ❤❤❤
Sarah you have a beautiful mom...💕 So glad your mom can live her Christian life. God bless 💗
That is sad that your future mother experience what she is putting you through and is repeating history. Your mum told her story so beautifully. It was nice getting to know you and your family.
Sarah your mom is the sweetest woman and brought another sweet woman in to the world. Wishing you too all the love and happiness that you deserve
Very beautiful!!! So funny because it’s a comforting thing to touch your hair!!! So cute!!! I twirl mines all the time:)
My parents also came from the Philippines, I was born in Sharjah and my sister was born in Dubai and we all moved to Canada shortly after. Don't know anyone else who has a similar story! :) So glad to have found your channel
Your mom is lovely! I hope that she has found love again.🛐❤❤
......so fun to watch! Thanks for sharing. It was interesting how surprised Sarah was when Mom shared that the Sudanese family wasn't excited about her connection with her son.
Sarah......this why i go hard for Justin to stand up for you...because your are indeed a diamond.....and like you my daughter is name Sarah..but Sarah Nicole......and i would not want a man to miss treat my princess (which both your names mean..Lol)..My daughter is of mixed culture.....i am black and my husband was half black and white ( his father was white and his mother was black).... even though my husband had fair skin....but any way...i am a few years older then you and yet my daughter is in her teens...she has this same spirit like you of being kind..head strong and beautiful..like i tell her and i will tell you...You both deserve to be treated like Queens....though your name means princess..that is the way we moms treat you...a man that marries you both...HAD BETTER TREAT YOU LIKE THE BLACK QUEENS YOU ARE!!!..ok..and i am sure Sarah..your mom feels the same way....i have three kids..two sons and a daughter...(the irony)..but like your mom..i worked hard to take care of my kids....and i want the best for them...i will not tell them who to marry..but i want them to know their self worth...just like you (if you were my little sister or my own Sarah ..daughter)...because Sarah you are worth for more then diamonds...and there is no other QUEEN like you on this earth.....This is what i tell my own daughter.... always know your worth ok..and never be treated no less then the Queen you are blessings...
Your mom is beautiful, I can imagine when she was young. A lot of heart must gotten broken. Hope you well.
Love your mom. Such a beautiful person.
Your mom is beautiful just like you. My wife who is a Filipina is also following your channel. God blessyourfamily.
Interesting how life repeats itself. Lovely mom. Wishing you all the best. Happy Holidays!!!
Sarah is so sweet and young and naive. Asking mom repeatedly, "what made you decide" this and that. In many peoples' lives you don't get to decide. You go where there is opportunity for you and jump through hoops to get work visas and resident visas and such. Filipinos' economic diaspora is a major part of their culture. Due to abject poverty in the Philippines, Filipinos are workers all over the world, wherever they can find jobs and survive and send money back to family. A lot of practical sacrifice and emotional toughness in such a sweet-natured people.
My mom is also Filipina.
Say kamusta to your Nanay! 🥰
What a sweet blessing for Sarah to have such a loving mother/grandmother for Sabrina and future sibling(s).
You and your Mom are very sweet!💞 I would be interested in meeting your other siblings and hearing abt the effect of being raised in a Sudanese/Filopean household. Thank you for being so open with us.💟
This is beautiful ladies, thank you for your mother doing this interview on a personal matter in her life. Honestly I can say for your mom, it was truly a blessing considering the time that your parents met, interracial couples.. And or dating was still less accepted than today. But they over came thay barrier.. Plus the cultural differences. Amazing 💖💖❤ A beautiful strong and loving family.
Finally 🖤🖤 I've Been Waiting For Another Video From You 🖤🖤🖤
I love you Mom and sister. Lovely, warm family.
I have to say..Sarah your mom looks like your sister..both of you are lovely and BEAUTIFUL.....i can only imagine how lovely your own daughter will be!!..Not to sound rude....But Justin better marry you..because Sarah You are beautiful.....smart and wonderful...he will be fool to let a wonderful woman like you go...your mom is a lady of indeed Beauty and Grace..... #superModelMom #SuperModelSarah blessings to you both Beauty Queens!!
