Let's make this birthday one to remember.

45 years old (Born on April 26, 1979)

Happy birthday to the one and only Neil Ryan Sese—our favorite "Simon" from Munting Heredera! May your special day be filled with more drama than a teleserye finale, but less trouble than Simon usually finds himself in. Your talent for bringing characters to life has made us laugh, cry, and occasionally yell at our TV screens.

Here's wishing you another year of unforgettable roles, endless applause, and fewer plot twists off-screen. Keep shining brighter than those studio lights; after all, you're not just aging gracefully—you're leveling up like fine adobo! Cheers to more success ahead. Maligayang kaarawan!
