John Prats expresses gratitude to Isabel Oli on her 45th birthday
Actress Isabel Oli welcomed another year with a heart full of gratitude as she celebrated her 45th birthday, reflecting on her faith, the lessons she has learned, and the blessings that have shaped her journey.
On her Instagram page, Isabel shared how reaching another milestone has allowed her to see life’s challenges and missed opportunities from a different perspective, trusting that everything happens according to God’s plans.
“My heart is full of gratitude to God for bringing me this far. Thank You, Lord, for Your love, protection, and guidance, even in moments when I didn’t understand Your plans. Not all my dreams came true, but now I see that some things were not meant for me, and some closed doors were Your way of protecting me,” Isabel wrote.
“At 45, I’m learning to appreciate life more, worry less, and trust God’s timing. I’m thankful for every blessing, every lesson, the people who stayed, my family, my loved ones, and everyone who has been part of my journey,” she added.
The actress also shared her birthday prayer.
“My birthday prayer is not just for myself, but also for the people I love and everyone who needs Your grace. May God keep us safe, healthy, peaceful, and surrounded by love,” she said.
Ending her message, Isabel thanked God for another year and expressed her hope that she would continue to approach life with humility, stating: “Thank You, Lord, for 45 years of life and countless reasons to be grateful. My greatest wish is for the people I love to be happy and blessed, and for my heart to always remain humble, faithful, and grateful🤍”
Meanwhile, her husband, actor-director John Prats, also took to social media to greet Isabel on her special day, expressing his appreciation for everything she does for him and their children.
“Happy birthday, wifey! ❤️ Minsan hindi ko lang nasasabi, pero sobrang thankful ako sa lahat ng ginagawa mo para sa akin at sa mga bata. Salamat sa pag-intindi, lalo na kapag ang dami kong ganap, at sa pag-alaga sa amin palagi,” he wrote.
John also expressed his admiration for his wife and assured her of his continued support, saying he hopes to see her happy and pursuing the things she wants to do.
“Sana alam mong proud ako sa’yo at sa mga ginagawa mo. Gusto ko lang makita kang masaya at ginagawa ’yung mga gusto mo. Nandito lang ako palagi. Thank You, Lord, for another year with you. I love you, Cuff! ❤️,” he added.
Friends and fellow celebrities, including Iza Calzado, Heart Evangelista, Yeng Constantino, Carla Abellana, and Erik Santos, also sent their birthday greetings to Isabel in the comments section of her post.
John and Isabel tied the knot in May 2015 in a private ceremony in Batangas attended by their family and closest friends. The couple has since welcomed three children: Lily Feather, Daniel Freedom, and Lilla Forest.
