Grateful and Happy to Be Blessed with a Daughter, Jessica Iskandar Says It Feels Like Having a Best Friend

Kapanlagi.com - Happy news comes from Jessica Iskandar who just gave birth to her first daughter on December 2, 2024, at RS Bunda Menteng, Central Jakarta. The arrival of this little one adds to the happiness of Jessica's small family with her husband, Vincent Verhaag.

For Jessica, the birth of this daughter feels very special. This is because she grew up as the only girl among four brothers.

"I am one of four brothers, and I am the only girl. So all my life, I haven't had a sister, no younger sister, no older sister. I only have four older brothers, and that was quite overwhelming," said Jessica Iskandar at RS Bunda Menteng, Central Jakarta, Sunday (12/8/2024).
