Yassi Pressman was overwhelmed with emotion after receiving a meaningful gift from her sister Issa: a tree.
The “Ang Probinsyano” star cried while gazing at the tree inside their home, as seen in a now-deleted video on Instagram today, June 1. Her sister could be heard asking, “Why are you crying?”
“My sister decided to gift this to me for my birthday, this means so much,” she wrote. Yassi celebrated her 25th birthday last May 11.
She explained that the tree was “something I’ve always wanted as we tried to restart our lives again.”

“I wanted a Tree Of Life that would symbolize our journey and how we are somehow connected to the universe,” she said.
Yassi and her siblings lost their dad Ronnie Pressman in February. The actress marked her birthday remembering her dad, saying it was the first one without him on Instagram.
“Gonna promise to be the best that [I] can be!!!! Just like you taught me!” she said, adding, “I’m a big girl now!”
