Herlene Nicole Budol, or Hipon Girl, pleaded with Hiponatics not to photograph her at her grandmother Nanay Bireng’s burial.

On June 7, Tuesday night, Herlene posted on Facebook and Instagram, “Para makasama niya kayo sa kanyang huling hantungan.” ‘Pakiusap lang po sa mga bibisita na hindi muna ako magpapa-picture, pero puwede po kayong makiramay kasama ako, “

“Gusto kong ibahagi ko sa lola ko ang pagmamahal ng aking taga-suporta.

“Hindi man niya masasaksihan ang laban ko sa Bb. Pilipinas, masaya na kaming dalawa nan nadyan kayo sa tabi ko.

“Dahil mahal ko kayo, kayong mga taga-suporta sa akin ang aking pamilya.”

Nanay Bireng’s funeral is available to the public from Tuesday through Thursday (June 7-9) at 11:30 p.m. Sympathy Memorial Park and Columbarium is located on Quezon Avenue in Brgy. Angono, Rizal’s San Isidro.

“Sa Biyernes na huling lamay ni Nanay Bireng, hiling ko lamang para lang po sa aking pamilya at mga malalapit na kaibigan lang po,” Herlene said.

The first episode of Herlene’s digital romcom series “Ang Babae Sa Likod ng Face Mask.” will premiere on YouTube’s Puregold Channel on Saturday, June 11 at 6:00 p.m.

Joseph Marco joins Herlene in the cast, which also features Mickey Ferriols, Kiray Celis, Hasna Cabral, VJ Mendoza, and Fe Saligumba.
