Kyle Echarri’s sister Bella passes away at 12 years old

Kyle Echarri’s 12-year-old sister has passed away. 

The actor confirmed the news in an Instagram post on Wednesday, April 5. Posting a series of photos with his sister Bella, he wrote in the caption: “I love you more than you will ever know, ta. You are the most amazing sister anyone could ever ask for. I already miss your hugs/kisses for Manong whenever he was sad and your cheers for whenever I was on stage.” 

“Now, more than anything, I’m happy to know that you’re done with the year of fighting something you never deserved. You can finally smile, sing, dance, swim, and eat again. And don’t worry I know I didn’t lose my sister… I just got a new angel. I love you, ta, forever,” he added. 

In June 2022, the local star asked his supporters to include Bella in their prayers as he opened up about the latter’s brain tumor diagnosis. He said she kept it a secret from him at first because she didn’t want him to “get stressed” while he was working. 

“To say it hurts is an understatement. I love this girl 10x more than I love myself,” he said at the time. 

Rest in peace, Bella.
