💔 Heartbreaking Night: Sharon Cuneta Breaks Down in Tears on Second Night of Cherie Gil’s Wake
The Filipino entertainment industry continues to mourn the loss of one of its brightest stars — Cherie Gil — as her wake enters its second evening. But what truly broke hearts and made headlines last night was the emotional appearance of Sharon Cuneta, who could not contain her grief as she bid farewell to her longtime friend and fellow screen icon.
Held at a private memorial venue surrounded by close friends, family, and industry veterans, the atmosphere was heavy with sorrow, silence, and whispered prayers. But it was Sharon’s arrival that marked the most poignant moment of the night.
Sharon Cuneta, inconsolable: “I lost a piece of myself.”
Clad in black and visibly emotional, Sharon approached Cherie’s casket with trembling steps. Eyewitnesses shared how she burst into uncontrollable sobs, barely able to utter a few words through her tears.
“They’ve known each other for decades. They were not just co-stars — they were soul sisters in this crazy world of showbiz,” one family friend said.
Cherie Gil, known for her powerful villain roles and legendary line, “You’re nothing but a second-rate, trying hard copycat!”, was also deeply respected off-camera for her intellect, passion, and artistic discipline. Sharon and Cherie worked together on multiple films and developed a close bond that went beyond professional collaborations.
In a previous interview, Sharon admitted that Cherie was one of the few people who understood her deeply during her highs and lows in life. Last night, that bond was evident in every tear she shed.
Industry Icons Gathered in Quiet Reverence
Aside from Sharon Cuneta, several well-known celebrities paid their respects during the second night of the wake. Among those spotted were Christopher de Leon, Zsa Zsa Padilla, Lea Salonga, and Ricky Davao. A quiet tribute played in the background, featuring snippets of Cherie’s greatest performances.
Friends recalled stories of Cherie’s sharp wit, her love for music and theatre, and her deep passion for acting. Some guests lit candles and left letters beside her casket — small tokens of the impact she left on their lives.
Final Tribute in the Works
According to family members, a memorial tribute concert and celebration of life are being planned to honor Cherie Gil’s contributions to the Philippine arts. Sharon is expected to be part of this tribute, possibly delivering a special message or musical performance in her honor.
As the second night of the wake came to a close, Sharon Cuneta posted a short but powerful message on her social media:
“I will love you forever, Cherie. Until we meet again, my beautiful friend.
