Coco Martin: Why Don’t You Want to Celebrate a Birthday? Harsh Truth Revealed
Popular actor and director Coco Martin , known as one of the most popular and influential personalities in the Philippine showbiz industry, has long been known for his privacy when it comes to his personal life. But one of the questions that always surrounds his fans is why he doesn’t celebrate his birthday. Now, the harsh truth behind it is gradually coming out and touching the hearts of many.
While most celebrities happily celebrate their birthdays with friends, family, and fans, Coco quietly chooses not to hold any celebrations. Despite his popularity, no grand feast or party takes place on his special day.
It has been a puzzle for years, but recently, an interview and some close friends of the actor shed light on the real reason behind his birthday silence.
