Diva Montelaba marks her decade of friendship with 'StarStruck' Season 5 batchmate, Rocco Nacino, whom she described as the brother she never had.
For Diva Montelaba, it doesn't need to have a special occasion to express her gratitude for the person who stays by her side through ups and downs.
And true enough, uploading random appreciation posts online has been her cup of tea ever since.
After writing a sweet message for Kris Bernal, Diva dedicated an Instagram post for her StarStruck Season 5 batchmate Rocco Nacino to mark their decade of friendship, telling the newly-engaged actor how proud she is of his achievements these past years.
She said, "Of all people whom I started this business with, you're the one who never changed, even for a bit.
"If anything, you changed for the better. And that I am very happy and proud of the man you've become."
Diva added, "We may have not chatted or seen each other that much but I'm still grateful for you have been the kuya that I've never had since day 1.
"You deserve every blessing you have Nico. No matter what, I'll be here for you. Congratulations too!!"
Diva and Rocco got to know each other when they joined the fifth season of StarStruck, where she was declared First Princess while Rocco was declared Second Prince.
Among their batchmates were Sarah Lahbati, Sef Cadayona, Nathalie Hart (formerly Princess Snell), and Enzo Pineda.
