Unang Hirit Post About “Mariz” Goes Viral

This post from Unang Hirit went viral online!

GMA Network’s morning show Unang Hirit has been getting a lot of attention online because of their post about “Mariz”.

Multi-talented Kapuso broadcast journalist Mariz Umali has officially become a part of the Kapuso morning Unang Hirit in 2019. This is the longest-running morning show in the Philippines.

Umali has been a Kapuso for decades already. She earned her BA Broadcast Communication degree from the University of the Philippines Diliman. In the spans of her career, she was able to anchor and host several shows and programs such as Balitanghali Weekend, Pamana: Saving Our Heritage, Brigada, News TV Live, Kape at Balita, Born to be Wild, and iWitness.

Recently, in one of the posts of the morning show on X (formerly Twitter), one in particular has caught the attention of many. A photo was shared and Umali was in full smile in a floral blue dress, with the number 25 prominently featured in the photo with the caption that read, “Mariz, loyal sa Unang Hirit!”

This post sparked a loud buzz online with some of the netizens jokingly related the caption to the trending topic surrounding Maris Racal and Anthony Jennings.

For context, Anthony’s ex-girlfriend, Jam Villanueva shared the alleged affair between Maris and Anthony through posting screenshots of their messages for each other. The two trended online starting last night.

Previously, Jennings confirmed the split and along with this revelation, he shared that he and his love team are just friends.

Mariz Umali is not in any way involved in the issue but she has the same name as the actress. This funny coincidence immediately went viral online. There’s a little difference in the spelling but it’s already enough to become a meme.
