Belle Mariano Graduates from Senior High School on September 14, 2024

Due to the demands of show business, young artists typically take long hiatuses from their studies, with some leaving school altogether. Belle opened up about her decision to commit to her schooling in the same Instagram post.
"Before entering the industry, I promised myself and my parents that I’d do my best to live the best of both worlds: pursuing my career and balancing it with school at the same time," she wrote.

"Two years ago, I decided to continue pursuing my academics once again. I could say it wasn’t an easy journey —all the nights of staying up late, endless cups of coffee, and trying to make it before the deadline. I finally made it!"
She even posted the sweetest snap with her mom, Katrina!

Fans flooded Belle's comment section with their congratulations. One recalled a moment in from September 23, when Belle's handler Edith Fariñas posted an Instagram story of the actress completing her thesis defense while on a train in Europe for a work trip. Her diligence has certainly paid off!

Congratulations, Belle!
