Manila Mayor Isko Moreno couldn't be happier than meeting former Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada at a wedding this afternoon, Feb. 20.

The two former movie stars-turned-mayors had a chat during the special occasion.

On Facebook, Moreno and Estrada were seen shaking hands. Moreno did not say whose wedding it was.

Netizens believe this is the first informal meeting between Moreno and Estrada since the 2019 election.

Moreno wished Estrada the best of health during their meeting.

Here's Moreno's full FB post:

"Akin pong ikinagalak nang sa isang kasalan ay muli kong nakatagpo ang dating alkalde ng Maynila, si dating pangulong Joseph 'Erap' Estrada.

"Kinumusta ko po siya, at kinumusta rin niya po ako. Ako po ay nagalak sa kanyang mabuting kalusugan lalo na sa panahong ito ng pandemya. Yan din naman po ang panalangin ko para sa lahat ng mga Batang Maynila at mga Pilipino, ang manatiling ligtas sa pandemya at anumang karamdaman lalo na sa panahong ito.

"Kay dating Pangulong Erap, God bless you po. Stay healthy and safe."

In May 2019, Moreno dislodged reelectionist Estrada in the Manila mayoralty race.

With all votes canvassed, Moreno received 357,925 votes against Estrada's 210,605 votes.
