As a former child actress, Camille Prats practically grew up in front of the camera. From being a five-year-old a grand finalist on Eat Bulaga!’s segment “Little Miss Philippines" to starring in the 2005 Philippine adaptation of the film Little Princess, Sarah…. Ang Munting Prinsesa at 10 years old, Camille’s growing up years can be seen onscreen throughout her more than three decade-long career.
Since marrying VJ Yambao in 2017, Camille has been happy raising their three children Nala, Nolan, and Nathan (her son with her late first husband Anthony Linsangan) as well as juggling her acting career. In her Instagram post last April 2, Camille shares her latest lesson on motherhood.
She wrote, “When I had kids, life taught me that sometimes things don’t go as planned. We have no control over how things will unfold, no matter how carefully we’ve planned for them—and that’s okay. It taught me to make room for changes and interruptions, reminding me that as Jesus walked the earth, He was often 'interrupted.' In the Bible, the stories of His healing show that He was always on His way somewhere or in the middle of something when people would stop Him, asking for help. Yet, He always paused, met their needs, and made time.
"Life’s interruptions can feel overwhelming, but maybe they’re actually invitations—to slow down, to be present, and to love like Jesus did.”

During her eldest son Nathan’s birthday last February, Camille shared her favorite photos through the years with her firstborn. She wrote, “You changed my life in ways I couldn’t have imagined. You healed me in ways nobody else could have. You saved me from things I might have regretted. You taught me how to love and live with hope that things will eventually get better. Happy Birthday, my boy. No matter how big you get, you’ll always be my sweet little boy. I love you with all my heart. ❤️”
Apart from sharing her reflections on being a parent, Camille also likes to share video clips of her fitness journey, which also involves working out with her husband VJ. In a recent post she shared, “VJ and I haven’t had the chance to work out together for quite some time due to our busy schedules and conflicting commitments, which made us both miss our favorite side-by-side activity. Since it’s been a while, we couldn’t agree on a single approach while doing the KB flow, leading to a heated discussion. 😅😆
"As we continue to learn and grow together, we’ve realized that not every disagreement needs to be blown out of proportion. It’s natural to have differing opinions—we’re still two different people, after all. But we’ve learned to take things lightly and not hold grudges when disagreements happen. 😄 We rewatched this video together so many times and couldn’t stop laughing… while still trying to prove our points. 🤣 I guess we’ll just have to agree to disagree! 😆😅”
