Marian Rivera, kids make surprise appearance on Dingdong Dantes's birthday episode in 'Family Feud'

In celebration of his birthday, Dingdong Dantes was surprised by some very special guests on "Family Feud!"

On Thursday's episode, his wife, Marian Rivera, and their kids, Zia and Sixto, appeared on the show with a birthday cake, flowers, and cards.

It's a special episode for his birthday, but Dingdong also mentioned that Marian is also celebrating her birthday this month.

"Alam po ng lahat na espesyal po sa akin ang buwan po ng Agosto dahil, alam niyo po, 'di ko lang birthday, birthday month po namin ni Marian," Dingdong said.

"Thank you, my love," he told Marian.

Dingdong dedicated his birthday wish to the Kapuso show, hoping that it will continue to run for a longer time.

Marian also took part in the episode by helping Dingdong read the game's second question.

"'Pag hindi ako puwede, ikaw na bahala dito," Dingdong quipped.

The episode's contestants were part of the Dantes and the Gonzalez families, Dingdong's loved ones.

Dingdong turned 44 years old last week. Their family started his special day with a simple breakfast at home.

Meanwhile, Marian will be turning 40 years old on Monday.

The Kapuso power couple got married in 2014. They welcomed Zia in 2015 and Sixto in 2019.

DongYan starred in the 2023 film "Rewind," the highest-grossing Philippine film of all time. They were honored with the Bida ng Takilya award at the FAMAS Awards this year for their work in the film.
