No distance can keep dad Jake Ejercito from celebrating his daughter's birthday! The actor made a surprise visit to Siargao to celebrate Ellie Eigenmann's 10th birthday and it's making us *emotional*.
In a video shared by Jake on his Facebook page, Ellie can be seen running into her dad's arms for a tight embrace. The Marry Me, Marry You actor then led his daughter to his room where she is greeted by her cousins, aunt Jerika Ejercito, and uncle Jacob Ejercito.
"Birthday week starts now! Brought in almost the whole gang as a surprise," Jake captioned the post.
Jake continued to post photos with the birthday girl, much to the delight of netizens who were *patiently* waiting for more father-daughter moments between the two.
Ellie even got to hang out with her dad aboard a yacht, as seen in her uncle Jacob's IG story.
She also spent some time with her friends and cousins.
Jake, who is based in Manila, is co-parenting with Siargao-based Andi Eigenmann.
Aside from Ellie, Andi has two kids with fiancé Philmar Alipayo, Lilo and Koa.
