Angel Locsin called her 33rd birthday “one of the best birthdays ever” after spending a day surrounded by loved ones including boyfriend Neil Arce.
She also received love from her fans, and though it wasn’t a usual birthday party, she was touched and beaming with pride over their choice of celebration.
“I’m just bursting with pride for my dear Angels for organizing a charity event with the elderly of Anawim for my birthday,” wrote the “La Luna Sangre” actress in an Instagram post.
