MANILA, Philippines —Robin Padilla and Mariel Rodriguez threw joint birthday party over the weekend. Robin will turn 50 years old this November, while Mariel turned 35 on August 10.
President Rodrigo Duterte graced the couple's celebration at Fairmont in Makati.
Robin and Mariel are among the celebrities that have supported Duterte since his bid for the presidency in 2016. The president even welcomed the couple back in 2016 to Malacañang, where a thanksgiving celebration for the couple's daughter Maria Isabela was held.
The couple were also among those who attended a thanksgiving dinner after the midterm elections.
In an Instagram post, Mariel: "The biggest surprise of the night... President Rodrigo Roa Duterte!!!!! Thank you sooooooo much!!!! Your presence made Robin’s 50th most special. We also want to thank Senator Bong Go and his office. Maraming Salamat po sa Office of the President, Ms. Bubbles, PMS and PSG. To our team yaaay success!!!!"
Robin is a staunch Duterte supporter – even campaigning for the former Davao City mayor in the 2016 elections.
