Filipino comedian Betong Sumaya was moved to tears as his friend Alden Richards made a purchase of over Php 40,000 during a live selling session.
On Saturday, the Filipino star went live on social media to sell some items which included Coca-Cola and Marvel collectibles. At one point, Betong read a comment from a certain RJ Richards asking: “Magkano lahat ng ibebenta mo diyan, Bets?”
After a few moments, it occurred to Betong that the person might be his fellow actor and friend, Alden Richards, so he asked to make sure.
