JACKIE RICE somehow feels sad that the first soap where she played the lead role, “Sisid”, is ending in a couple of weeks. “I have many pleasant memories of this show,” she says. “This is where I learned to swim and dive up to 20 ft. deep. I was really inspired to give my best and I’d like to thank Direk Ricky Davao for bringing out the best in me, gayundin ang co-stars kong nakatulong lahat sa’kin for me to be more effective in my role as the island girl who gets rich at naghihiganti as Pearl de la Vida. As Pearl, I’m the new owner ng resorts nina Bembol Roco at Alicia Mayer kaya galit na galit sila sa akin, lalo ng ipasara ko ang resorts na siya sanang venue ng kasal nina
Dominic Roco at
Bela Padilla. Hindi lang yun, pinakulong ko pa si Bembol at pinagulpi.”
After “Sisid”, she can spend more time with her non-showbiz boyfriend who reportedly often accompanies her on the set. “Actually, big help siya sa’kin as he drives for me, lalo na pag-uwi dahil di na ko makapag-drive sa pagod sa magdamagang taping. He even helps me carry my things sa set. Napakabait niya. Ako rin, when I have no taping, sumasama ako sa kanya sa family business nila that he helps manage. I help him sa kanilang paper work, kaya nagkakatulungan kami talaga.”
