Kathryn Bernardo was glowing with happiness as she welcomed 28.

The actress celebrated with her loved ones at Isla Amara, a beach resort she co-owns with Piolo Pascual in El Nido, Palawan. They had fun on a yacht and then on the island where fireworks were also displayed, as seen in Kathryn’s birthday video on Instagram.

“WHAT A DAY!” Kathryn said. “Didn’t want it to end. Keeping these moments in my core memory forever.”

“Thank you for making this my happiest birthday to date. Cheers to 28!” she added.

Among those spotted at the celebration were Alden Richards, Jericho Rosales, Joshua Garcia, Maymay Entrata, Dominic Roque, ABS-CBN President and CEO Carlo L. Katigbak, and many more.

Kathryn also received a birthday greeting from her ex-boyfriend, Daniel Padilla. Her mother, Min, also gave her a moving birthday message, saying, “Shout out to you my daughter, you haven’t felt okay lately but you get up everyday and refuse to quit.”

Kathryn also welcomed this new chapter in her life as the first Filipina ambassador for French luxury perfume and beauty house, Lancome.
