“To my baby bro who couldn’t stop crying before his wedding, I am so happy to have been part of your most special day,” she wrote. “When we first met, hinatid lang kita sa pagpasok mo sa Bahay ni Kuya (I accompanied you when you first entered the “Pinoy Big Brother house), and now I get to witness sending you off to your happily ever after.”

TV host Ai dela Cruz took to her Instagram page to congratulate the couple who wed “on the most beautiful day with the perfect weather.
“Two of my favorite nicest people in the world got married yesterday on the most beautiful day with the perfect weather in the company of their family and friends who have overflowing love for both of them,” she wrote. “Congratulations, Robi and Maiqui!”
Meanwhile, Melai Cantiveros, Maymay Entrata, Gary Valenciano, Janine Gutierrez, Darren Espanto, Edward Barber and Alora Sasam were also among the celebrities invited to Domingo and Pineda’s wedding, per an exclusive report from ABS-CBN News.
The couple’s wedding was pushed through as scheduled, amid Pineda’s battle with a rare autoimmune disease she was diagnosed with in July 2023, as it’s something for Domingo’s partner to “hope for” as she recovers.
