THE “COFFIN CAKE” CONSPIRACY: CARLA ABELLANA’S BRUTAL REBUTTAL TO JANUS DEL PRADO—THE DARK WEDDING OMEN, THE EDIBLE “WAKE,” AND THE TRUTH BEHIND THE 2026 BRIDAL CURSE! 👰♀️🎂⚰️

The glitz and glamour of the high-society wedding between Kapuso Goddess Carla Abellana and her high school sweetheart, Dr. Reginald Santos, on December 27, 2025, has taken a dark, sensational turn as we enter the first week of 2026. What was supposed to be a celebration of “Till Death Do Us Part” has turned into a national debate over a dessert that many claim looked more like a final farewell than a sweet beginning.
Tonight, DIS TV conducts an emergency investigation into the “Wedding Cake from Hell.” We analyze the stinging social media exchange between Carla and veteran actor Janus Del Prado, the “superstitious” panic gripping the fandom, and the chilling visual evidence that has netizens asking: Was this a cake, or a premonition? 🕵️♂️📽️🌋
THE PHOTO THAT BROKE THE INTERNET: “CAKE, WHY DID YOU LEAVE US?” 📸⚰️🕯️
On December 29, just two days after the lavish ceremony, actor Janus Del Prado posted a photo of Carla’s unconventional wedding cake. The caption was a brutal jab that resonated through the digital halls of showbiz: “Ho ho… Cake, ba’t mo kami iniwan?” (Cake, why did you leave us?)
The Visual Forensic: The cake in question was a massive, rectangular, elongated structure. In the Philippines, the shape and size immediately evoked images of a white casket used in traditional wakes.
The “Sisiw” Comment: Janus didn’t stop there. He joked that the only thing missing was a small yellow chick (a symbol placed on coffins in certain Filipino folk traditions). “Sisiw na lang ang kulang,” he sneered.
The “Wake” Aesthetic: Netizens quickly piled on, noting that the floral arrangement at the front of the cake looked suspiciously like the flower wreaths seen at a funeral parlor.
CARLA CLAPS BACK: THE EDIBLE REVENGE 🍰🔥⚖️
In a rare move, the usually composed Carla Abellana didn’t ignore the mockery. She descended into the comment section to defend her vision with a mix of grace and hidden fire.
“Fully Edible”: Carla’s response was sharp. “Masarap naman at fully edible. Pati guest nag-enjoy.” (It was delicious and fully edible. Even the guests enjoyed it.)
The “Modern Art” Defense: She emphasized that for the couple, the cake was beautiful, and that was all that mattered. But was this a genuine defense of modern art, or was Carla masking her hurt over the ridicule of her “First Love” wedding?
The Fan War: The internet split instantly. Half praised Janus for his “undefeated Filipino humor,” while the other half blasted him as “disrespectful,” “tackless,” and a “clout chaser.”
TRADITION VS. TREND: THE 2026 CULTURAL CLASH 🏛️🎭💥
This isn’t just about a cake; it’s about a deep-seated cultural fear. In the Philippines, symbols of death at a wedding are considered the ultimate malas (bad luck).
The Superstition: Netizens are worried that the “Coffin Cake” might curse the marriage of Doc Red and Carla. While western weddings often embrace unconventional shapes, the Filipino psyche is still rooted in tradition.
The “Half-Truth” Joke: As our investigators noted, every joke contains a half-truth. Janus saw a casket because, objectively, the design leaned into a morbid aesthetic. Even CFMers (Close Friends of Media) reportedly texted insiders expressing confusion over the “long, rectangular” shape.
The “Missing” Elements: To diffuse the tension, fans like Dan Clavisilas joked, “At least there was no coffee, biscuits, or lugaw (porridge) at the pics.” But behind the laughter lies a genuine concern for the couple’s future.
THE VERDICT: HEART OVER HARASSMENT ⚖️❤️🕯️
The verdict from DIS TV is absolute: A cake does not a marriage make. While the design may have been a “Modern Art” misstep in a culture obsessed with round, tiered symbols of eternity, Carla Abellana’s decision to stand by her choices proves her strength.
If the relationship between Doc Red and Carla ever faces trials, it won’t be because of a rectangular sponge cake; it will be because of the hearts of the people involved. Carla was not “pikon” (onion-skinned); she was protective of her dream day.
