Kris Aquino rang in her 55th birthday on 17 February with an intimate and heartfelt gathering that celebrated friendship, family, and resilience.

The event, held at her Makati City home, brought together her sons Josh and Bimby, a close circle of longtime friends, and key members of her glam and medical teams.

Fans were delighted to see the “Queen of All Media” smiling amidst rainbow-colored balloons—a nod to her self-declared “rainbow year” as she continues to battle multiple autoimmune diseases.

Kris shared a video of the celebration on social media, writing, “New friends and friends who can count decades of togetherness. I promised you a home tour, we’re not yet done.”

A special highlight of the day was the reunion with her longtime friend and former co-host, Boy Abunda. The two have shared decades of on-screen chemistry through shows like The Buzz, Aquino and Abunda Tonight, and Boy & Kris, and their bond has remained strong off camera.

Photos from the celebration captured the pair posing with Bimby and sharing a meal with friends, a gesture fans have long admired.

Boy has publicly expressed his unwavering support for Kris, revealing in August 2025 that he continues to pray for her well-being and visits her whenever he can.

Kris has reciprocated the sentiment, previously calling him her “other brother” and praising his support for both her and her sons.

Other attendees included fashion designer Michael Leyva, glam team members RB Chanco and Jonathan Velasco, and her doctors Dr. Geraldine Zamora and Dr. Katcee Canlas–Estrella, all of whom have been instrumental in supporting her personally and professionally.

Looking ahead, Kris shared her new birthday goal: reaching 68, humorously noting her desire to eventually hold both senior citizen and PWD cards.

Her heartfelt message closed with an invitation for followers to engage, leaving questions in the comments section.

From heartfelt reunions to thoughtful reflections, Kris Aquino’s 55th birthday was a celebration of life, friendship, and gratitude—proving once again why she remains a beloved figure in Philippine entertainment.
