“Life begins at 40 nga ba?”
Ibinunyag ni Iza Calzado na inaasam na nila at ng kanyang businessman husband na si Ben Wintle ang kanilang unang baby, sa pagdiriwang niya ng kanyang ika-40 na kaarawan nitong Agosto 12.
Inanunsyo ng aktres na malapit na siyang maging isang ina habang ipinapakita ang kanyang baby bump sa kanyang Instagram page.
Binanggit niya ang kasabihang “Life begins at 40” at inamin na marami ang nakapila na ilang “exciting projects” bago nila nalaman ang tungkol sa kanyang pagdadalantao.
“I was ready to usher in this new chapter in my life. Then you came along. Unexpectedly. You may not have been in my immediate plans but I instinctively knew that this was THE plan,” masayang pagbabahagi ng aktres.
Nagpahayag ng pasasalamat si Calzado at sinabing may magandang plano sa kanya at bagong chapter ng kanyang buhay ang Diyos.
“Something deep inside me knows that you will propel me to greater heights to soar higher than ever before in ways I cannot even begin to imagine. You will give me THE WHY, THE PURPOSE, THE DIRECTION in life, and I embrace you in my life as we build, along with Ben — your dad, a FAMILY!” aniya.
“To know that life is growing inside me is great miracle. You are my miracle. You are my guiding light,” aniya sa kanyang baby. “Thank You, Lord, for the most beautiful birthday gift. Our ABUNDANCE.”
Nagpaabot ng pagbati ang mga kapwa celebrities kay Calzado, kabilang sina Dingdong Dantes, Julie Anne San Jose, Janine Gutierrez, Dawn Zulueta at Jake Cuenca.
“Congratulations, and what a happy birthday indeed!” sinabi ni Dantes kay Calzado.
“Congratulations dear Iza, I’m so thrilled for you. I had my Ayisha when I was 40 also. You are so blessed,” ani Zulueta.
“Oh my gosh love team I’m so happy for you. Congratulations to you and Ben,” bati ni Cuenca sa mag-asawa.
