After their renewed friendship, Kapuso queens Marian Rivera and Heart Evangelista were seen interacting face to face for the first time in a long time at a recent party.

In a video shared on Twitter on Saturday, Dec. 9, the Kapuso actresses were seen smiling and talking to each other like long-lost friends, making fans quite delighted by the sight, which they had waited for in a long time.

“The world is healing! 2 queens in 1 frame! #Kapuso,” wrote X user @jamesandrew07. TikTok user bethborrico15 said, “Hay Heart and Marian in one frame, huhu nakaka happy ng puso! Nag hug pa yan sila sa ig ni Tim Yap.”

The reconciliation between the Primetime Queen and the fashion icon started when netizens noticed that Rivera and Evangelista started following each other on Instagram, following their long-rumored feud.

Statement from both actresses

Not long after, Evangelista said in an interview that she didn’t want to publicize their reconciliation as it was happening from the heart, noting as well that she and the Marimar star have always liked each other.

“Hindi lang ako nagpapa-interview because I don’t want [it to be seen as] publicity. Something like that should be from the heart,” she said. “Marian, we’ve always liked each other, and it’s a true testament that queens should always support each other.”

Rivera first opened up about her renewed friendship with the socialite, emphasizing how peaceful the situation was with God’s timing and how personal it was for both of them.

“Nandun ako sa peaceful, na finally in God’s perfect timing. Siguro kung ano man ‘yung pinag-uusapan namin behind, siguro ibalato niyo na lang sa amin kasi it’s too personal for us,” said the actress.

It was reported that their long-rumored conflict began during the shooting for “Temptation Island” in 2011, in which both actresses were co-stars. After a decade, with the help of those around them, Rivera and Evangelista proved that all’s well that ends well.
