Cynthia Erivo radiated happiness upon receiving a thoughtful personalized bracelet from “Unang Hirit” host Lyn Ching during her visit to Sydney, Australia. This charming moment unfolded after Lyn had the opportunity to conduct an interview with Cynthia and her talented co-star Ariana Grande for their highly anticipated film adaptation of “Wicked.”
As a delightful token of affection, Lyn presented Cynthia with a beautifully crafted bracelet engraved with a heartfelt quote from her mother: “It is sunny today, and I am happy.” Cynthia was visibly moved, expressing her gratitude to Lyn for such a meaningful gift.
In a similar gesture, Lyn also gifted Ariana a vibrant pink bracelet that featured the inspiring phrase, “Dreams do come true.” The personal touches added to the warmth of their interactions, highlighting the bond formed between the three.
On her Instagram Stories, Cynthia proudly showcased the cherished bracelet alongside her other stunning jewelry pieces, celebrating the special moment. Lyn later shared her intentions behind the gifts with GMA News Online, stating, “I wanted to give both of them something personal, so I researched before having it done.” She continued, expressing admiration for Cynthia’s deep love for her mother, and reflected, “I thought, wouldn’t you want your mother’s happy words on you at all times? Some days are tougher than most, so I hope the bracelet helps and that it reminds her of her mother’s bright and happy outlook.”
During her time in Sydney, Lyn experienced an unexpected yet exciting encounter with renowned actors Jeff Goldblum and Jonathan Bailey, who are also part of the star-studded “Wicked” cast. The film is set to premiere in Philippine cinemas on November 20, bringing the enchanting story to a wider audience.
