Girl holds ‘First Yaya’-themed birthday celebration, gets greeting from Sanya Lopez

Looks like “First Yaya” truly appeals to people of all ages, and this girl just proves it!

According to Lhar Santiago’s “24 Oras” report on Tuesday, Marina Soliman had a “First Yaya”-themed celebration for her 11th birthday on Monday.

Marina said she asked permission from her parents, who agreed with her idea and gave her a Yaya Melody costume.

When she wore the costume, the girl said she felt the presence of “First Yaya” star Sanya Lopez.

“It’s like Sanya knows me. When I grow up, I’ll be as good as her. I’ll be like her. She inspires me because I once had a yaya who always helps me,” she said in Filipino.

According to Marina’s mom, her daughter has always been a big fan of the show.

“We should have eaten dinner before it starts. Once it’s on, we can’t be noisy and she should not be bothered,” said mommy Nina.

To make the birthday even more special, Yaya Melody herself sent a video greeting to Marina.

“Happy birthday to you. I heard you want to be Yaya Melody so you should wear a Yaya Melody costume,” Sanya said in Filipino.

“I hope I’ll see you soon and stay safe. Always listen to your mom and dad,” the Kapuso actress added.

Marina, meanwhile, said that she hoped to do a TikTok video with Sanya soon.

Last week, Sanya’s “sexiest yaya” pool scene on “First Yaya” became the top trending video on YouTube after she wowed everyone with her impressive figure.

“First Yaya,” which also stars Gabby Concepcion, revolves around a nanny who develops a relationship with the Philippine president as she serves his family. – Franchesca Viernes/RC, GMA News
