The actor expresses happiness for the birth of his precious princess

24 Nov - Nobody was happier about the birth of Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes' baby girl than the actor himself, who recently turned to social media to express his feelings about being a father for the first time.

According to PEP News, shortly after announcing the baby's birth to the media, Dantes posted a photo of baby Maria Letizia's little hands and wrote, "Twenty-three November, 2015: The day God decided to deliver His most precious gift."

"This morning, I witnessed a miracle...and during that moment, I realized that my life would never be the same again. As we welcome this new graceful chapter with open hearts, we thank everyone who prayed with us through this sweet journey. Friends, say hello to our Maria Letizia."

Dantes' wife and actress Marian Rivera gave birth to their baby in the morning of 23 November in a hospital in Makati. It's the first child for the celebrated husband and wife, who are also one of Philippines' most successful tandems.
