Iza Calzado and husband, Ben Wintle, recreated their family photo from a year ago, as the actress celebrated her 41st birthday with her now family of three.
In her birthday post on Instagram last Aug. 12, the first-time mom uploaded several photos including a pair of snaps — taken a year apart — in which she and her husband were wearing almost the same clothes.
On top of the location and other smaller details, the biggest difference between the shots is the addition of their baby girl Deia Amihan — in the more recent snap — who is now almost seven months old. The photo from last year was one of the snaps Calzado shared when she revealed her pregnancy on her 40th birthday.
In her post’s caption, the former Kapuso actress expressed that all she wanted for her birthday was to spend it with her daughter.
“Celebrating my birthday with our baby Deia is all that I could wish for. I never thought that one day I’d be thinking about someone else more than me on my birthday. Now, that’s a miracle! [emojis] Cheers to 41! [emojis],” wrote the award-winning actress.

Wintle, who earlier marked his first Father’s Day celebration, took to Instagram to express his appreciation for his wife of almost five years. In his post, the businessman proved that dancing prowess runs in the Calzado family, as he uploaded a video of his wife and her rapper brother Dash, enjoying and rocking the dance floor. Their father is the late TV director-choreographer Lito Calzado.
The first-time dad also left a sweet message for his “terrific” better half. “Happy birthday my love! Smooth and sexy on the dance floor, caring and wise with us at home. Deia and I think you’re terrific, we’re proud of you and we’re so happy that you’re ours. [heart emoji],” he wrote.

The actress-TV host also got to celebrate her special day dancing with her family and friends, as seen in the Instagram video uploaded by entrepreneur Cristalle Belo. The video compilation showed Calzado groove to the music — while carrying Deia — as her husband tries his best to keep up with the group.
“We are Deia’s back up dancers [crying-laughing face emoji] Happiest birthday to this beautiful soul @missizacalzado who wanted to celebrate life by dancing with friends,” said Belo, who added that she and her mother, Dr. Vicki Belo, love the birthday girl “so much.”
Calzado also received a cake and balloons during the dance session, as their dance group sing her the Happy Birthday song.

The “Darna” star was also showered with birthday greetings from several people including former co-stars Bea Alonzo, Jodi Sta. Maria, Dingdong Dantes, and Carmi Martin, who appeared with Calzado in the 2010 film “Working Girls.”
