A handful of celebrities attended a Thanksgiving dinner
hosted by President Rodrigo Duterte and his common-in-law wife Honeylet Avanceña
on Tuesday, May 7 at the Malacañang Palace.
Among those who attended the dinner are Robin Padilla and
his wife, TV host Mariel Rodriguez, Richard Gomez, Phillip Salvador, and singer
Chad Borja. Senatorial candidate Freddie Aguilar was also present at the
dinner.
In her Instagram post, Mariel shared some photos taken
during the event, captioned with a lengthy narration of what happened during the
thanksgiving dinner.
The It's Showtime host shared she was touched with the
President’s kindness.
According to her, Pres. Duterte really waited for the food
of her husband, Robin Padilla, who offered his food to Freddie Aguilar's wife,
Jovie.
"My favorite moment of the evening that made me admire
our President even more... the filet mignon was wrapped in bacon so in
advanced the kitchen staff prepared fish for Robin and I. When our fish arrived
Senatorial candidate Freddie Aguilar and his wife, Jovie, wanted fish as well
because they are Muslims too. Robin being the gentleman that he is, gave his
fish to Jovie so she could eat ahead."
"The whole table was prompted to eat all except for Robin, Ka
Freddie and PRRD." "He said “sige kumain na kayo hintayin ko si
Robin” and he really waited for Robin’s food to arrive. I know maliit na bagay
but diba it’s the little things that matter. Super nakakatuwa at nakaka touched
talaga."
"Yung loyalty ni Robin kay President ay hindi sayang
because it is reciprocated with kindness. Truly a memorable evening!!!" she
said in her post
