Donny Pangilinan made hearts flutter on the June 8 episode of ‘ASAP’ as he delivered a touching birthday message to his longtime onscreen partner, Belle Mariano.
In a heartfelt tribute, Donny expressed his admiration for Belle’s personal and professional growth, emphasizing the strong bond they’ve nurtured over the years.
“You are always full of surprises,” Donny told Belle during the live episode. “I think this is a big year for you—not just because you have a major project coming up but also because you’re moving to a new house. Alam mo naman, nandito lang ako and I will be supporting you through it all.”
The emotional exchange comes at a pivotal time in both stars’ careers. Donny is currently a judge on ‘Pilipinas Got Talent’ and is also preparing for a new project, while Belle is set to star in an upcoming film alongside Piolo Pascual and Joshua Garcia.
Though the project has yet to be officially linked to her previously announced film under director Cathy Garcia-Sampana, fans are already buzzing with anticipation.
While a reunion project for the DonBelle tandem has yet to be confirmed, both Donny and Belle are undeniably thriving in their individual pursuits. Their ability to shine separately, while continuing to support one another, speaks volumes about their connection—one that clearly extends beyond the screen.
The sweet moment on ‘ASAP’ was a testament to their enduring friendship and mutual respect, something that continues to delight and inspire their growing fanbase.
Whether together or apart, Donny and Belle remain one of the most beloved tandems in the industry today.
