Herlene Budol receives house and lot from manager
Herlene Nicole "Hipon Girl" Budol finally has her own home!
The actress and Binibining Pilipinas 2022 candidate shared the news on Instagram, Sunday, thanking her manager Wilbert Tolentino.
"Natupad din ang aking pangarap magka house [and] lot. Salamat kay Sir Wilbert Tolentino," she wrote. "Mga Ka-Squammy, Ka-Hiponatics, at Ka-Budol ko diyan, sobrang speechless po ako at overwhelmed."
("I achieved my dream of having a house and lot. Thank you to Sir Wilbert Tolentino. My Ka-Squammy, Ka-Hiponatics, at Ka-Budol, I am so speechless and overwhelmed.")
On YouTube, Wilbert gave a tour of Herlene's future home, which he decided to give her as motivation to keep on going especially after the passing of the her grandmother.
"Every time umiiyak siya nung nawala si Nanay Bireng, lagi niya sinasabi, 'Nanay, sorry hindi mo naabot 'yung bahay,'" he said.
("Every time umiiyak she cries when Nanay Bireng passed away, she always says, 'Nanay, sorry you were not able to see the house.'")
Herlene is yet to see the house in person as of the video's posting, but Wilbert dedicated a message to her prior the Binibining Pilipinas 2022 coronation on July 31.
"Excited kami sa 'yo. Sana 'wag kang magbago. Ipagpatuloy mo lagi lahat ng mga plan ko para sa karera mo. Ma-deliver mo lang 'yon, isa nang malaking achievement para sa 'kin," he said.
"Alam kong bibigyan mo ng mahigpit na laban ang Binibining Pilipinas (2022) and I will pray every night para makuha mo kahit isang korona lang," he added.
("We are excited for you. I hope you don't change. Just continue my plans for your career. If you can deliver that, it will already be a huge achievement for me. I know you will give Binibining Pilipinas a good fight and I will pray every night so you can win at least one crown.")
Last April, Herlene also marked a milestone in her life when she bought her first car.
Prior to Binibining Pilipinas 2022 finals, she has already been amazing everyone with her performances. Just recently, she perfectly strutted her "Squammy Walk" during the press presentation.
She doesn't have a crown yet, but so many things to celebrate. Congratulations, Herlene!
