Instinct or excitement?

Whatever comes first.

It doesn’t matter to Filipino actor Zanjoe Marudo as long as he is skin-to-skin with his first-born son Baby M.

As long as the fatherly thrill is there, Zanjoe is fine.

Three days after Marudo’s wife Ria Atayde gave birth to Baby M, his dad took him in  his arms, rocked the tender infant and showed to the world he is the happiest person in earth when he held his child.

According to Ria, Zanjoe is elated to perform “his favorite role to date.”

That is fatherhood.

Zanjoe in his Facebook territories noted that he is very proud of his new role, as a first-time father in real life.

“Eto na (Here it is!) Zaddy na si Z (Z is already a Daddy),” he captioned the video clip shot in a hospital where Atayde gave birth to their first-born.

Z refers to Zanjoe’s firsr letter to his given name while Zaddy is a concoction of Z,and Daddy.
