Tuesday Vargas Asks for Prayers as Son Seeks Professional Help

Actress-comedian Tuesday Vargas asked for prayers and support for her family after revealing that her son is currently away seeking professional help.

Vargas shared the update in a social media post on Thursday, January 30, saying that her 24-year-old son, Kaya, is “away seeking the help he needs to get better.” She chose not to disclose further details about his condition, emphasizing the family’s need for privacy during this difficult time.

Alongside an old photo of herself holding Kaya as a newborn, Vargas opened up about the emotional toll the situation has taken on her.

“I’ve always known that being a parent means your heart walks around outside your body, but right now, it feels like my heart is breaking,” she wrote. She added that it has been one of the most challenging moments their family has faced, aside from the loss of her father, noting that their home now feels painfully quiet in her son’s absence.

Despite the hardship, Vargas expressed unwavering love and hope for her son’s recovery.

“I’m far from a perfect person, but I have a perfect love for him. My biggest prayer is that he comes out of this stronger, healthier, and better than ever before,” she shared.

She concluded her message by asking followers for prayers and words of encouragement as they continue to hope for Kaya’s healing.

Vargas, who became a single mother at 21, has been open about her own struggles in recent years. She previously revealed that she experienced abuse as a child and continues to navigate autism, anxiety, and other mental health challenges.

Last year, the actress-comedian stepped down as the main host of GMA’s Your Honor podcast under the YouLOL brand, citing mental health reasons. She was later replaced by Chariz Solomon.
