Herbert Bautista and Barbie Imperial were among the celebrities who attended Annabelle Rama’s birthday party in Taguig, with the latter’s children Ruffa and Richard Gutierrez accompanying them to the event.
Rama, who turns 72 today, Oct. 31, celebrated her birthday with an intimate gathering with family and close friends at the Electric Garden restaurant in Taguig City.
Glimpses of the event were shared on Nice Print Photography and Vela Studios’ Instagram pages on Wednesday, Oct. 30.
At one point, Herbert and Ruffa were spotted posing for photos with the Gutierrez matriarch, as seen on the former beauty queen’s Instagram page. Their relationship was confirmed in June 2024.
“Had an intimate dinner with family and close friends to celebrate my mom, who’s turning a year older in just two days. Yes, she’s a Halloween baby! Now you know! Wishing you endless love, happiness, and good health. Here’s to many more joyful years together. We love you. Happy Birthday, Mother Dear,” Ruffa’s post read.
Meanwhile, Richard and Barbie posed for a photo at the intimate gathering, as captured on Vela Studios’ Instagram Story.

Other celebrities invited to the event were Bianca Manalo, Ara Mina, Priscilla Meirelles and Cesar Montano.
Ruffa confirmed her relationship with Herbert in a June 2024 interview. While she said it has “always been serious” between them, she reiterated that she wanted the details of their romance to be kept private.
Richard and Barbie, on the other hand, have yet to directly address the relationship rumors hounding them, although they’ve been spotted together on multiple occasions since January.
