Michela Cazzola, cager James Yap’s partner, had the chance to meet President Rodrigo Duterte.
A picture shared on Cazzola’s Instagram page shows the Italian beauty posing for a selfie with the President. But rather than look at the camera, it seems something else caught Duterte’s eye.
Netizens commented that it looked as if the President was starstruck by her.
“Ang cute ni Mr. President aba marunong maka-appreciate ng beauty (Mr. President is so cute; he knows how to appreciate beauty),” said an amused @fatimaali2375.

@chaseyjulia chimed in: “Ang cute ng ngiti ni Tatay Digong (Father Digong’s smile is so cute).”

“Mr. President behave!” @bunso_1201 said in jest.

The meeting appears to have taken place during the 51st Asian Development Bank (ADB) Annual Meeting held at the Edsa Shangri-La hotel, where Duterte spoke during a dinner yesterday, May 5.
Cazzola, who is expecting her second child with Yap, is believed to be an ADB official, according to various media sources.
Incidentally, Yap’s ex-wife Kris Aquino has also had her own moments with the President and described him as kind in the times they have encountered one another. JB
