Ariella Arida's tear-jerking birthday message for her late dad

Beauty queen and former Wowowin host Ariella Arida was really emotional as she commemorated the birthday of her late father on Instagram.

The Miss Universe 2013 third runner-up penned a heartbreaking message, wherein she expressed how painful it is that her daddy is no longer with them.

Ariella said, "When you don't have enough but you keep on giving. When you only have p50 in your wallet and you still choose to give it to your siblings.

"Even though you're not here w us physically anymore, you will forever be remembered and missed Daddy (even the doggies are missing you) as a selfless father, brother, friend, teacher and an individual.

"The kindest, that's what they say. Happy happy birthday! I love you so much Daddy! "

Arida lamented that she would not be able to take another photo with him ever.

"Photo taken last year on your 74th birthday. I can't believe we never got another one of us together after that "
