MANILA — Comedy superstar Vice Ganda is mourning the death of one of his close friends who is also a companion at home, his "It's Showtime" co-hosts confirmed on Tuesday.

Vice Ganda was due to appear at a 6 p.m. virtual conference for the Kapamilya Channel return of the noontime program, but was unable to do so following the passing of his companion.

A few hours prior, Vice Ganda tweeted: "You'll always be my bestfriend, my brother, my family. I will always cherish and love you. Here and there. Now and forever. I will cry. But I won't say goodbye."

Explaining the absence of Vice Ganda, fellow "It's Showtime" mainstay Vhong Navarro said during the conference that the comedian's "best friend" has indeed passed away.

Neither Navarro nor Jhong Hilario, another co-host, shared details of the death.

In outpouring of condolences, however, fans and colleagues pertained to "Budi," whom Vice Ganda would casually mention on live TV over the years.
