Bimby Aquino just turned 18 and celebrated the occasion with friends and family!
In a series of photos shared by makeup artist and family friend RB Chanco on Instagram, Bimby can be seen smiling and posing with his birthday cakes while having a party at home.
RB writes in her caption: “Bimb, you’re 18 today, and it’s hard to put into words how proud I am of the person you’ve become. You’ve always had a quiet strength and a gentle heart. No matter how much you’ve grown, you’ve stayed kind, grounded, and full of love for the people who matter to you.”

She then brings up Bimby’s mom, Kris Aquino, who may not be at her best health at the moment but continues to find the strength to fight, knowing that Bimby and Bimby’s brother Josh are by her side.
“Your mom once said this might be the last birthday she gets to spend with you, and that stayed with me. But I truly believe that as long as you’re by her side, she’ll keep finding the strength to keep going. You’ve given so much of yourself to her, and that love is something truly rare,” RB continued.
“You’re a gift to your family, and to everyone lucky enough to know you. I’ve seen how real and good your heart is, and I’ll always be grateful to be part of your life. Bimb, eighteen’s just the beginning and whatever life brings, I know you’ve got what it takes,” she said. “Happy 18th birthday, Bimb. I love you. And through every season, in every version of your life, I’ll always be here for you.”
