Actor Daniel Padilla marked his 31st birthday with an intimate yet lively celebration attended by family and close friends.
Similar to last year, the actor opted for a private gathering, but with a concert-like atmosphere that reflected his love for music. Among those present was rumored girlfriend Kaila Estrada, who arrived with her siblings including Luigi Muhlach, Inah de Belen with her boyfriend Jake Vargas, Moira Estrada and her fiancé Miguel, as well as Yuan Estrada.
Netizens were quick to notice the presence of Estrada’s family members, with some even wondering why her parents, Janice de Belen and John Estrada, were not spotted at the event.
One highlight of the evening was when Jake Vargas joined the band and performed ‘Liwanag Sa Dilim,’ the theme song of the series ‘Incognito’.
Fans also took notice of the apparent closeness between Kaila and Daniel’s mother, Karla Estrada, with the two seen spending much of the night together—fueling speculation that the actress already has the approval of the actor’s family.
During the cake-blowing moment, Daniel was seen looking for Kaila, who was standing right in front of him alongside Karla. His sisters, Magui and Lella Ford, assisted in holding the birthday cakes.
The actor appeared visibly happy as he celebrated the milestone surrounded by his parents, Karla and Rommel Padilla, siblings, close friends, and Kaila—along with members of her family.
Meanwhile, outside the party, the couple has also been spotted together in more casual settings, with photos and videos circulating online showing them relaxed and unbothered while interacting with fans. From selfies to candid moments in eateries, their public appearances have only intensified fan excitement.
As of writing, Kaila has yet to post a birthday message for Daniel on social media, but fans remain delighted with the pair’s increasingly visible closeness.
