Kapamilya actress Julia Montes expressed her love and appreciation for her longtime partner, Coco Martin, as the actor celebrates his birthday today, November 1.
In a heartfelt Instagram post, Julia shared how grateful she is to have Coco by her side, reflecting on the challenges they have faced together and the person he continues to become.
“Happy birthday to my partner in life, my love! ❤️ Life isn’t always easy, and we’ve been through so much together, but if there’s one thing I’m always grateful for, it’s having you by my side,” the actress wrote.
The actress also acknowledged Coco’s sacrifices, dreams, and unwavering love for their families, expressing her appreciation for everything he does.
“I’ve seen your strength, your sacrifices, your dreams, and the love you give to our families. And I hope you know how much I appreciate everything you do, even the little things I don’t always get to say thank you for,” she added.
Julia went on: “I’m proud of the man you are and everything you continue to become. Through all the ups and downs, the busy days, the challenges, and the beautiful moments, I will always be here cheering for you, supporting you, and loving you.”
For her birthday wish, Julia hoped for Coco to have a happy heart, saying: “My wish is for you to have a happy heart, a peaceful mind, good health, and more beautiful years with us.”
“Happy birthday, my love. Here’s to more dreams, more memories, and more of life together. I love you! ❤️”
Beyond their sweet birthday exchange, Julia and Coco have previously opened up about the values that have helped them maintain their relationship over the years, both as partners in life and as onscreen tandem.
In a previous interview, Julia attributed their strong partnership to their willingness to support and consider each other in their decisions.
“Yung tandem namin, kaya siguro nasasabi rin namin na perfect kasi nga it takes two to tango. Lagi kaming tulungan, laging iisipin yung isa, lagi kayong tandem in life,” Julia said.
Coco also emphasized the importance of mutual respect and support in keeping their relationship strong, noting that love alone is not enough to sustain a lasting partnership.
“Natutunan namin na sa haba ng proseso, ang pinaka-key ay yung marespeto kami sa isa’t isa. Sabi ko nga na iyong pagmamahal kasi minsan, kapag bago kayo matindi pero kapag wala kayong respeto sa isa’t isa, magfe-fade iyon. Yung respeto tsaka pagsusuportahan sa isa’t isa ayon yung pinakasikreto namin kaya yung pagmamahal namin mas tumitindi,” he expressed.
Julia likewise shared how much she appreciates Coco’s openness to communication and willingness to listen to her opinions, whether on personal matters, business decisions, or their respective careers.
“Kaya rin po kami nagwo-work, kahit alpha siya sa family, hindi mo mafe-feel na hindi siya nagi-give. Open siya to any advice, any communication. Bilang babae, na-appreciate ko kasi ang sarap din na napakikinggan ka,” she said.
“Siyempre, ang goal ko rin po sa life bilang partner din po niya ay magabayan siya sa mga bagay-bagay at ano man yung puwede ko makabawas sa problema niya, makabawas sa intindihin niya and makatulong man lang,” she continued.
