President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. greeted First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos on her birthday with a heartfelt tribute on social media, praising her as his partner in life, career, and public service.
“Happy birthday to my first and only lady, Liza,” the President wrote.
“You have been my partner through everything—a loving mother to our boys, a brilliant lawyer and teacher and now a tireless First Lady who gives so much of herself to others,” he added.
Born on August 21, 1959, the First Lady also marked the occasion with an earlier post on her Instagram account, announcing a brief break from public life.
“Starting my 10-day sabbatical! No terno, no makeup, no hairspray!! Best birthday gift ever!! See you on Aug 26,” she said.
The First Lady has been actively involved in civic and cultural events since her husband assumed the presidency in 2022, and continues to balance her roles as a lawyer, educator, and public servant.
The Presidential couple has been married for more than three decades and has three sons.
