TV host Kim Atienza shared that the wake of his daughter, Emman Atienza, is set to be held on Nov. 3-4 at the Heritage Memorial Park in Taguig City, and fans are welcome to visit.
Kim shared the wake details through an art card posted on his Instagram page on Thursday, Oct. 30.
The wake is set from 12 noon to 10 p.m. at Chapel 5 of the Heritage Memorial Park in Taguig City.
‘A little kindness everyday. We miss you dearest Emmansky. We love you,’ read Kim’s caption.
Kim told a netizen that they are welcome to come to the wake after a commenter asked if they could come despite not knowing Emman personally.
On Oct. 24, Kim confirmed the death of his 19-year-old daughter through a joint statement with his wife, Felicia, and two other kids.
Emman, a known mental health advocate, died on Oct. 22 in Los Angeles, California.
Kim earlier responded to a netizen who blamed him for his daughter’s passing, calling the commenter an ‘evangelical bully.’
Weeks before her death, Emman opened up about her struggles with anxiety and online hate through her Instagram broadcast channel.
The late social media influencer said that while she enjoyed social media for the supportive community she had built, the constant stream of online hate began to take a toll on her mental health.
‘Every time I post, I feel excited but also anxious and dreadful knowing there’s going to be some hate I’ll have to force myself to ignore,’ she said at the time.
