<p align="justify">Kathryn Bernardo blossomed beneath the spotlight and right before the eyes of Filipino audiences, having started in showbiz at the age of seven. While most children her age were engrossed in dressing dolls, she was immersed in auditions and reading scripts, experiences that proved invaluable on her journey to success.</p><p align="justify">From a child star to a teenage sweetheart, and now a more mature actress, we&#x27;ve witnessed her craft evolve over the years. Since her discovery, her career trajectory has gone nowhere but up, and recently, she’s been captivating us more with her bolder image.</p><p align="justify">Truly, Kathryn Bernardo has shed her child star and teen queen personas to emerge as Asia’s Superstar. However, as we celebrate her 28th birthday, our hearts can’t help but feel nostalgic and wish to travel back in time to meet the young Kathryn again.</p><p align="justify">Her career commenced in 2003 with the portrayal of young Cielo in &quot;<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-photos/093031418-throwback-it-might-be-you-2003-13966"><em><strong><u>It Might Be You</u></strong></em></a>,&quot; topbilled by John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo.

Following her drama-heavy stint in <strong><u>“<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-photos/093031418-throwback-it-might-be-you-2003-13966"><em>It Might Be You</em></a></u></strong>,” she showcased her high-spirited energy portraying the ally of Judy Ann Santos in “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-photos/78053018-throwback-krystala-ang-kauna-unahang-superserye-15446"><em><strong><u>Krystala</u></strong></em></a>” (2004). Once again, she explored the realm of serious drama by joining the cast of Maricel Soriano’s “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-photos/84072817-throwback-vietnam-rose-2005-14680"><em><strong><u>Vietnam Rose</u></strong></em></a>” (2005) to play the young version of the Diamond Star.</p><p>Her dedication as a child actress eventually let her to a bigger spotlight.
