Heart Evangelista, ever the doting stepmother, proudly assisted Chesi Escudero, her husband Senate President Francis “Chiz” Escudero’s daughter, as she prepared for her first prom last weekend. Chesi, whose full name is Maria Cecilia Escudero, is the daughter of Chiz with his ex-wife, Christine Flores. Chesi has a twin brother named Quino.
Heart took a hands-on approach to ensure Chesi’s prom night was memorable and magical. Leveraging her network of trusted professionals, Heart enlisted her personal glam team to assist Chesi in getting ready for the big event. Memay Francisco worked on Chesi’s makeup, crafting a look that highlighted her natural beauty and youthful glow. Hairstyling duties were managed by Ghil Sayo, who created a sophisticated yet age-appropriate style that perfectly complemented Chesi’s ensemble.
Chesi dazzled in a stunning, glimmering beaded gown designed by Michael Leyva, a designer frequently favored by Heart herself. The dress, with its intricate beadwork and elegant silhouette, made Chesi the star of the night. Adding a sentimental touch, Heart lent Chesi a pair of her earrings from her teenage years, symbolizing the bond and affection between them.
To capture the special moments leading up to the prom, Heart hired photographers Andre Suleik and Tin Villanueva. Their documentation not only provided a keepsake for Chesi but also allowed Heart to share the joyful occasion with her social media followers. Heart, who has a significant presence on Instagram, posted a heartfelt message along with a series of photos from the night. “Our baby is now a lady! Our darling Chesi surrounded by her friends and loved ones as she officially goes to her first prom,” she wrote, expressing her pride and love.
Chesi’s prom date for the evening was the young actor Bryce Eusebio, adding a touch of celebrity glamour to the night. The event was a significant milestone for Chesi, marking her transition from adolescence to young adulthood, and was celebrated in true style and grace with the help of her devoted stepmother.
Heart Evangelista’s involvement in Chesi’s prom preparations showcased the close-knit family ties and the loving support she provides as a stepmother. This gesture also highlighted Heart’s nurturing side, contrasting with her public persona as a fashion icon and socialite. Through her actions, Heart reaffirmed the importance of family and the joy of celebrating life’s significant moments together.
