More than ten years since their first encounter through the teen drama series Princess and I (2012), Kathryn Bernardo and Sofia Andres have proven that special connections can thrive even in the unpredictable landscape of Philippine show business.

Their unwavering friendship through the years reflects the significance of finding a trustworthy confidante to navigate the industry’s highs and lows.

1. Celebrating milestones together

There’s nothing like two soul sisters rooting for each other’s happiness, success, and growth, the way Kathryn and Sofia do.

Each chapter that unfolds in their lives is met with the other’s good wishes and celebration.

For instance, in June 2019, when Sofia’s pregnancy was still hidden from the public eye, the first one she discreetly approached about it, and invited to become her daughter’s godmother was Kathryn, who readily embraced the real-life role.

For Sofia’s part, whenever support is needed for Kathryn’s projects, count her in.

She recently attended the premiere night and afterparty of Kathryn’s most recent box-office hit A Very Good Girl.

2. Going on trips here and abroad

Traveling is an experiential journey that not only broadens horizons, but also reveals various aspects of individuals.

While it may expose certain imperfections or less appealing sides, it also provides an opportunity to become familiar and comfortable with the true character of one’s companions.

For jet-setters Kathryn and Sofia, exploring Palawan, Boracay, Thailand, and some undisclosed campsites has become a cherished pastime.

3. Being each other’s hype-woman

Women empowering other women is the epitome of modern-day feminism, where female rivalry is nothing but an old maid’s lore.

A skim through Kathryn’s and Sofia’s Instagram pages reveals heartwarming gestures—hearts for likes, uplifting messages, and flattering compliments adorn each other’s photos.

Whether it’s a candid selfie or an impeccably styled magazine photo shoot, their actions sculpt a friendship founded on genuine mutual support.

4. Enjoying quality time together

Somewhere beyond their adventures and quirky antics is the beautiful simplicity of shared leisure.

Their joint “me time” activities—whether it’s a casual stop at the neighborhood pastry shop, a relaxing foot spa session, or a midweek evening enriched with wine— exemplify their love for pampering themselves.

It’s in these seemingly ordinary yet profoundly enjoyable experiences that the true depth of their connection is perpetuated, unlocking memories that they will treasure forever.

5. Serving as a pillar of support

Friends are chosen family whose dynamic entails an unspoken agreement to always carve out time for each other when one gets caught up in a dilemma.

When tumult hits the love islands of Kathryn’s and Sofia’s respective relationships with Daniel Padilla and Daniel Miranda, they ensure to stand by each other.

Following the breakup announcement of KathNiel (Kathryn and Daniel) on November 30, 2023, Sofia’s post on Instagram Story served as a reassurance that she, along with other friends Sarah Lahbati and Alora Sasam, are offering solace and companionship to Kathryn.

6. KEEPING IT CLASSY and respectful

As is true to the nature of show business, hateful netizens, a.k.a. bashers, are likely to throw unwanted criticisms at public personalities like Kath and Sofia.

The thing is, these two have never been the type to get their claws out and be crass about it.

Instead, they both handle their haters with grace and kill them with kindness.

When mindless terms were thrown at Sofia after she showed her steadfast support for Kathryn during the KathNiel breakup, she responded with just a few notes alluding to the matter.
