“'Di ko makakalimutan ang napakagandang puso ng taong ito,” writes Kapuso actress Lovely Abella about Marian Rivera.

Kapuso star Lovely Abella recently expressed her utmost gratitude and appreciation to Kapuso Primetime Queen Marian Rivera through a social media post.

Along with photos of her guest appearance in the Kapuso Primetime couple's newest sitcom Jose and Maria's Bonggang Villa, the actress-comedienne shared a true story about Marian's kind gesture five years ago.

She wrote, “'Di ko makakalimutan ang napakagandang puso ng taong ito. Hindi kami kumakain ng sabay, 'di kami nagkakausap ng matagal pero noong panahon na nag 50/50 ang mamang ko, siya ang kauna-unahang nagbigay ng tulong sa akin. Pinaabot niya ang cheque at sinabi sana gumaling ang mama.

“Unexpected na galing sa kanya ang napalaking halaga na 'yun. Hindi lang ako humanga sa kung gaano siya kaganda, kundi sa kagandahan din ng kalooban niya hindi dahil nagbigay tulong siya sa akin kundi tinatanaw ko na utang na loob ang tulong na 'yun.”

Both Marian and Lovely were part of GMA's defunct weekend variety show Sunday Pinasaya.

Lovely continued, “Lagi ko sinasabi pag ako yumaman, 'di ko kakalimutan ang mga taong tumulong sa akin financially at emotionally. 'Di man materyal ang naisokli ko ate @marianrivera pero lagi kang kasama sa dasal ko at buong pamilya mo at isa na rito ang bagong show mo. Muli salamat ng marami, mahal kita ate @marianrivera.”
