MANILA, Philippines — Teen actress Andrea Brillantes shared on Instagram several pictures from a recent trip to Siargao with her boyfriend Ricci Rivero.
The photo set sees Brillantes in a red-orange two-piece bikini, posing with a watermelon slice, as well as a photo of herself with Rivero behind a boodle feast. She also posted some group photos as they're aboard a boat with friends including actors Alex Diaz and Ashley Colet.
The actress captioned the post with "Life lately" with several beach-related emojis, and the hashtag "BangonSiargao." The hashtag is commonly used following Super Typhoon Odette hitting the tourist destination last December 2021.
Brillantes and Rivero also participated in a beach clean-up during their trip, accompanied by Diaz, Colet and more.
On Rivero's birthday, Brillantes posted two images of the basketball player against the setting sun with a simple greeting, accompanied by emojiis. Rivero commented on the post, saying, "I love you!"
The two officially became a couple last April after Rivero's UP Fighting Maroons beat the FEU Tamaraws. He publicly proposed, asking Brillantes to be his girlfriend.
Brillantes responded in the affirmative by choosing a shirt that said "Yes." In a tweet later that evening, the actress said it was her first time attending a UAAP game.
The proposal caused a stir online, with several netizens pointing out that Brillantes had just previously made a fuss of a rumored relationship between her "Kadenang Ginto" co-stars Seth Fedelin and Francine Diaz.
