Rhea Santos was given a surprise despedida party and here's what went on
What happens when it's time for an Unang Hirit host to leave?
In Rhea Santos's case, you're thrown a totally awesome party.
In the latest webisode of her new YouTube series "Your Morning Girl Rhea," the former Kapuso host shared some behind-the-scenes footage from the surprise despedida that her UH family organized for her.
In the video, we see a more candid side to our favorite GMA News presenters.
Personalities like Arnold Clavio, Ivan Mayrina, Mariz Umali, Pia Arcangel and Raffy Tima were seen dancing and partying away. Rhea herself did some karaoke with her fellow host, Susan Enriquez.
After spending so many years with the Unang Hirit barkada, Rhea also shared the saddest parts about leaving the morning show.
After attending so many parties, the host made a video diary on her very last day on Unang Hirit last August 2, 2019.
"Nag-alarm yung telepono ko, siguro napalakas yung pag-swipe ko and then lumabas yng 'delete'. So, yeah, I realize that it would be the last morning that I will wake up at 3:30 a.m," Rhea said, her voice cracking.
"So thank you, I hope this morning will go on smoothly and will be a celebration of friendship. I love you, my morning family!" — Margaret Claire Layug/LA, GMA News
