Former SB girls member Rochelle Pangilinan received a surprise from her husband Arthur Solinap for her 40th birthday.
In an Instagram post, Rochelle said she was just thinking about having a face-to-face party again after physical interactions were limited by the pandemic.
“Indeed a happy birthday girl nga! Pangarap ko lang magkaroon sana ulit ng face to face party. Lagi kong sinasabi kay Art na sana pwede ulit no gaya ng dati?” she said, along with photos taken by Nice Print Photography.
This is why she is grateful that Art granted her wish.
“Tapos biglang binigay sa kin ni God. Binigyan ako ni Art ng birthday surprise intimate party! Ang saya saya kooo!”
Rochelle expressed gratitude to everyone who joined the celebration.
“Maraming salamat po sa mga pamilya at kaibigan na pumunta. Wohoooo! Salamat sa time at effort kahit umuulan (lagi namang umuulan kapag birthday ko) hindi kayo bumawi lumaban pa din kayo para makasama kong magcelebrate!!”
During Rochelle’s birthday celebration in 2020, she was surprised by friends who drove by their house to greet her and hand her gifts.
Arthur shared that his initial plan was to collect video greetings from Rochelle’s friends but one suggested that they drive by the Solinap’s house instead.
Rochelle said she appreciated everyone who took time to drop by their house.
“Noong nakita ko yung mukha nila, kahit sa malayo, naiyak ako kasi na-miss ko yung mga mukha nila sa tagal nang hindi nakita na parang dati every day, every time na makikita mo nandiyan lang sila,” Rochelle said.
