As many may know, Member of Parliament Syed Saddiq has long been recognised for his athletic spirit, having attended and participated in numerous sporting events over the years. This time, however, someone special turned up to show their support, and by now, you can probably guess who it was.
Over the weekend, the politician shared a video on Instagram of himself taking part in the POWERMAN Malaysia 2025 event in Putrajaya. He revealed that he had undergone training prior to the race, and on the day itself, someone arrived just as early as he did to cheer him on.
“I came early in the morning to do some stretching and relax around the area, when someone suddenly approached me. At first, I thought it was a fan, but it turned out to be a surprise visit from an extraordinary woman from Sabah who came to support me,” he said in the video. If it wasn’t obvious who it was, it was, of course, actress-singer Bella Astillah, who appeared at the beginning of the video with her rumoured boyfriend wearing traditional Korean attire.
The mother-of-two also shared her experience attending the event on Instagram, where she expressed how proud she was of a certain someone. “Proud of someone who probably doesn’t even realise how impressive they are! Congrats on a strong finish — so much respect for your discipline and dedication, @syedsaddiq ✨💪🏼🙌🏻,” she wrote in her caption. As if things couldn’t get any sweeter or more romantic, Syed Saddiq commented on the actress’s post, expressing his gratitude for her unwavering support.
Fans left comments on both public figures’ Instagram posts, with some calling Bella the source of Syed Saddiq’s motivation lately, while others urged the couple not to wait any longer and to get married already. While there may be no plans to tie the knot just yet, judging by how things are going, we’ll likely see more of them spending time together outside of work.
