Sisterhood is often built through shared interests and mutual passions, creating connections that go beyond mere friendship. It can spring from experiences, hobbies, or aspirations, allowing individuals to find kindred spirits who understand and uplift each other. Such is the heartwarming story behind the sisterhood of Heart Evangelista and Gabriel Divina, whose recent bond blossomed through their mutual love for fashion.

Hearthas recently welcomed Gabriel, a new Bar passer and son of Nilo Divina (a high-profile lawyer who is a managing partner at Divina Law Offie), into her inner circle. Their connection was sparked by a chance meeting during which Heart humorously remarked, “Mukha tayong mag-kapatid!” or “We look like siblings!” Gabriel joyfully echoed this sentiment on social media, highlighting Heart’s charming personality. “She’s so funny and sweet,” he said, raving about the warmth of their interaction.
Beyond their personal connection, Gabriel also took a stand for Heart against her detractors. He articulated that, like fellow influencer Mimiyuuuh, Heart has worked hard to attain her luxurious lifestyle. “If Mimiyuuuh can afford impressive assets like a house, a car, and luxury items such as Hermes and Chanel bags, then surely Heart can do the same,” he asserted, pointing out both of their journeys as endorsers and influencers.
With his recent Bar exam success, Gabriel is eager to step into the world of luxury that Heart navigates as a global fashion influencer. “Now that I’m officially a Bar passer, I have an even better excuse to splurge on Saint Laurent suits!” he joked, alluding to the professional image he aims to present to future clients.
Heart Evangelista’s standing in the fashion world is remarkable. As noted in a recent Favikon study, she ranked eighth among the “Top 20 Instagram Influencers in the Philippines for 2026,” showcasing her vast reach and engagement. Furthermore, influData.com recognized her as the top influencer in follower growth among Manila’s content creators.
