“He was then also in a relationship,” she says. “Then our paths crossed again after we both had bad breakups. He got my phone from someone and now, after four years, we have a happy life. Akala ko nga, hindi magtatagal kasi I’m an introvert and he’s an extrovert, but we complement each other. He makes me laugh a lot. And we now have a project, we are trying to start a family. Because of my age, I’ve been seeing a specialist and discussing what we can do to conceive the natural way. We’re giving it one year and if it wouldn’t succeed, we’re willing naman to adopt. Pero sana puede pa, kasi si Janet Jackson became a mom at 48. By 50, I plan to retire from showbiz since I don’t think there would be challenging roles for me by then.”
Her BF is now in Abu Dhabi. “He’s asking me to join but, ayoko nga. They don’t celebrate Christmas naman there so I want to be here for Christmas. Also, I’m doing nga an episode in ‘Happy Life’ which is directed by my friend, Eric Quizon. I will be a donor to bring gifts to an orphanage in Bacolod. We have yet to tape it and this will be shown in the show’s Christmas episode on GMA News TV. This is aired Sundays at 9:30 AM.”
She likes the format of the show. “It aims to show the beautiful places around our country but also, it helps people in need. It’s produced by ex-Gov. Chavit Singson and I believe in his being genuinely generous.”
Her last acting job was in GMA-7’s “Marimar”. “I’ve got another offer to do one next year but magmi-meeting pa lang kami and I want to know muna what’s my role. Kung maganda, I’d accept it and if ever matuloy, we’d start taping in January.”
