Remini shared a lengthy Instagram post over the weekend expressing the difficulty of sending her only daughter, who she shares with her husband Angelo Pagan to college for the first time.
“Bringing our only child to college for the first time has been the most excruciatingly painful and proudest moment of my life,” Remini began the long post paired with a throwback picture of her with her daughter. “I have never cried so much in my life.

“It is the hardest thing I have ever done, and I’m still torturing myself with the idea that I might have pushed my daughter on the college track because I never got to go when I was her age,” Remini continued. “I am entering my second year at NYU, so now we’re both college students!”
The former “King of Queens” star talked about watching her daughter become an adult and how difficult it was going to be seeing her daughter’s empty room until she returns home for the holidays.
“My heart goes out to all the parents and caretakers who might be going through this bittersweet journey. The good news is, Thanksgiving is in 83 days…” Remini ended the post.
