Actress Glaiza de Castro admits she’s not yet ready for motherhood two years after tying the knot with David Rainey. In a recent interview, she emphasized the importance of being prepared physically, spiritually, and mentally before having a baby, citing the challenges she has seen her siblings and friends face.
“So, David and I are still preparing for that huge event. So that when the time comes, we’re settled already. As of now, we still have to attend to a lot of concerns, like, we just opened our business, I got busy taping for GMA’s The Seed of Love so we are taking our time,” Glaiza shared adding that if she were to decide, she would like to have two children.
Speaking of her new show The Seed of Love, the actress is happy that finally, it will be airing. According to her, it’s three years in the making.
After pausing taping due to the pandemic, resuming work for Glaiza wasn’t easy. It was hard for her to get back into character, given that they started filming in February 2020, before the pandemic. While they were on hold, Glaiza did other projects like Nagbabagang Luha, and the director and the cast had their shows.
During Nagbabagang Luha, Glaiza talked to the director, Ricky Davao, and expressed her hope that their show would eventually push through. She didn’t want all the effort they had put in, including ten days of taping, and an 11-hour journey to Ifugao, Banaue, to go to waste. Finally, when she saw their opening billboard and music video, it was fulfilling for her.
“It gives me a sense of pride that all of us involved in the show were able to finish taping the whole thing. Definitely, this is another quality show from GMA and we’re very excited that finally, it will get shown. It’s so relieving that our fighting spirit, courage, and perseverance paid off,” Glaiza ended.
Sunshine Cruz was asked if there is someone responsible for her current blooming state. She responded by advising one to stay away from negativity and mentioned that her daughters are also significant factors.
According to the lovely actress, her children are just like her chums and their age difference is not a hindrance.
“Whenever I’m with them, they make me feel young. I guess, it helps if you are happy with your life. Actually, my children are the ones who teach me what hair color, make-up, or clothing suits me. They are involved with me as their mom,” she avers.
Does this mean she’s okay for now even if she doesn’t have a love life?
“I’m not really closing my doors. If someone will come, then good. But if not, it’s just fine. I don’t really look for it. Anyway, my kids are there. I’ll just wait for whatever plan God has in store for me.”
As of now, Sunshine keeps herself busy with her career. She is currently doing a movie titled Lola Magdalena, directed by Joel Lamangan. In addition, she is part of the grand soap opera Unbreak My Heart, a collaboration between GMA and ABS-CBN, alongside Jodi Sta. Maria, Richard Yap, Joshua Garcia, and Gabbi Garcia.
Despite being 45 years old, Sunshine feels blessed that she still receives meaty roles such as these. As such, she would rather focus on her current projects.
