Aly Sánchez marked her 40th birthday on February 25th, surrounded by love, laughter, and plenty of tears. The Cuban actress and comedian was caught off guard by her closest circle of friends during what initially seemed to be a simple pilates or yoga session, which turned into an unforgettable birthday celebration.
It was Heydy González who took to social media to share several videos of the occasion. The footage shows Aly arriving at the venue without a hint of what was to come. The mats were laid out as if for a workout, but in reality, her friends were there to sing “Happy Birthday” and shower her with hugs as she embarked on her new year of life.
Aly's reaction was swift: surprise, joy, and ultimately tears. Overcome with emotion, she spoke through sobs, delivering a heartfelt message that resonated with many of her followers.
“I don’t even know what to say, honestly. I feel like I’ve been through so much to reach this age, but I needed to break to arrive at 40 like this,” she admitted. “The people here are my close ones, my family. I don’t even know what to say. I hope the coming years find me surrounded by the same people.”
The actress also reminisced about how she had previously expressed a desire for a low-key affair. “I kept saying I didn’t want a big party. It’s not a grand event I need, but here are all the people I need,” she emphasized, highlighting that company was what mattered most to her.
The day had an extra special touch: Galilea, Heydy's daughter, also celebrated her birthday on the 25th. Although the surprise was for Aly, Heydy later held a separate celebration for her little one, making the day doubly meaningful for her family.
Amidst hugs, laughter, and heartfelt words, Aly Sánchez embraced her 40s with gratitude, surrounded by those she considers her true family. This birthday made it clear that despite any hardships, she feels fulfilled, supported, and thankful for the people who stand by her.
