True to their fun, sibling-like bond, Rayver could not resist adding a playful joke to close out his birthday greeting. Even though Dianne just proudly embraced turning 40 in a reflective anniversary post, Rayver cheerfully knocked a whole decade off her age:

"Happy 30th! 😍🎉🙏🏼❤️"

His older brother, Rodjun Cruz (@rodjuncruz), was among the first to like the sweet update, enjoying the playful dynamic between his wife and his younger brother.

Rayver’s close relationship with Dianne comes as no surprise to longtime supporters of the family.

Dianne has practically grown up alongside the Cruz brothers, having been a central part of their lives for almost two decades.

Their steady, drama-free relationship stood the test of time, weathering busy showbiz careers and personal milestones for over 12 years before Rodjun got down on one knee in Boracay in 2017.
