Being known for hosting extravagant and one-of-a-kind birthday parties, the mother of People’s Champ Manny Pacquiao, Dionisia Pacquiao—or widely tagged as Mommy Dionisia—set the bars higher by hosting a Miss Universe and Pia Wurtzbach-inspired birthday celebration.
As Mommy Dionisia marked her 67th birthday on Sunday (May 15, 2016), the People’s Champ made it a point to give his mother a proper celebration. Through an Instagram upload on his mother’s special day, Manny expressed his heartwarming message for Mommy Dionisia which goes:
“Happy birthday to my mom, Dionisia. I don’t know where I would be today without you. Love you mom and Happy Birthday.”
Jinkee Pacquiao, Manny’s loving wife and Mommy Dionisia’s daughter-in-law, also expressed her love for her mother-in-law through a short yet sweet message which she posted on her personal Instagram account.
“Happy 67th Birthday Mommy D. We Love you very much!”
Moreover, according to a report by GMA Network’s evening news program, ’24 Oras’ on Sunday, Mommy Dionisia was inspired to have a Miss Universe-themed birthday party following the victorious coronation of Pia Wurtzbach as this year’s Miss Universe back in December 2015.
As seen on the photos uploaded by Manny and Jinkee, the blue gown of Mommy Dionisia resembled that of Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach’s coronation gown. In addition, it can be observed that the invitation for the exclusive party was patterned after the Miss Universe pageaent.
