Barbie Forteza and Bea Binene recently had a surprise reunion at a nail salon, an event that the two happily shared on their social-media feeds.
Fans remember Barbie and Bea for their portrayals as Bambi and Belle Fortez in the 2010 Kapuso romance series Reel Love Presents Tween Hearts.
Also part of the series were their love-team parners Joshua Dionisio (for Barbie) and Jake Vargas (for Bea).
Barbie posted on Instagram last Friday, July 14, 2023, “Namiss kita, Bey! Ang saya ko na ang saya mo! Love you!"
The actress will soon be seen in the TV adaptation of Maging Sino Ka Man with David Licauco.

The video shows Barbie and Bea looking genuinely surprised and delighted to see each other again after a long time.
FRIENDS AND FANS REACT
Meanwhile, fans and showbiz colleagues were happy to see them together.
Veteran actress Gina Alajar, who directed Tween Hearts, couldn't help but comment complete with heart emojis, "Tween Hearts memories. I miss all of you."
Kristoffer Martin, who was also part of the series, wrote, "Ang nostalgic niyo tignan. Wow nostalgic."
Some fans suggested a reunion project for Barbie and Bea.
Bea's contract with GMA-7 expired in 2021.
She signed with VIVA Artists Agency in September 2022, but, according to her, "I would still be a Kapuso na nandoon yung mga kaibigan ko. Nandoon yung mga nakasama ko at nakatrabaho."
Ang kanyang latest project, the movie Will You Be My Ex? starring Julia Barretto and Diego Loyzaga, ay ipinalabas sa mga sinehan nitong June 21.
