<p>Regine Velasquez admitted that she felt hurt when her close friend and fellow singer Jaya left the Philippines.</p><p>In an episode of <a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2021/1/19/fresh-scoops/panoorin-regine-velasquez-sumabak-sa-hide-and-s-191135"><strong><em><u>Magandang Buhay</u></em></strong></a>, Asia&#x27;s Songbird opened up about how she felt when Jaya moved overseas.</p><p>&quot;Nahu-hurt ako kasi feeling ko iniwan ako ng kaibigan ko so hindi ko siya kinausap pero although nag-usap na kami pero hindi ko masabi na nahu-hurt ako kasi iniiwan mo ako, ganun &#x27;yung feeling ko. Kasi parang di ba magkaibigan tayo dapat di ba lagi tayong magkasama? But I know that meron siyang reason why she needed to leave and naiintindihan ko naman &#x27;yun, ayaw ko lang intindihin, alam mo &#x27;yun,&quot; she shared.</p><p>Regine remarked that she also does not understand why she&#x27;s feeling like this about Jaya&#x27;s departure from the country. </p><p>&quot;The thing is I&#x27;m not usually like that, I am a very understanding person sige kung saan ka masaya. I don&#x27;t know why I am like this with her maybe because nga &#x27;yung sa dami na ng pinagdaanan namin and I wanted for her to be here and I am being possessive maybe and maybe I am being selfish but I know she understands naman,&quot; she stated.</p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="621" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ROKpQIDfMLE" title="YouTube video player" width="1104"></iframe></div><p>She added that it was also hard to be apart from Jaya because they already shared a lot of memories together. </p><p>&quot;Marami na rin kaming pinagdaanan, never naman kaming nag-away. Maraming ups and downs so witness pati siya sa daming nangyari sa buhay namin mag-asawa,&quot; she stated.</p><p>On April 22, Jaya penned a birthday message for Regine on social media.</p><p>In her birthday post for Regine, Jaya remarked that she is honored to have her as her friend. She also expressed how she misses the Songbird.</p><p>&quot;Regina!!! Happiest birthday to you my dear Kumare, sister in Christ, super friend, kachika at ka-duet ng bongga  I am so honored to have you in my life and yes, I have memories with you that I will forever cherish,&quot; Jaya wrote.</p><p>She added, &quot;Napakabuti ng iyong puso at mahal ka naming lahat. Friend kita, pero idol din kita!!! I love you and miss you. Hope you enjoy your day. God bless you more my dear friend… ayan na naiyak na naman ako.&quot;</p><blockquote class="instagram-media"

for the US.</p><p>Jaya made the decision after experiencing various challenges during the lockdown amid the COVID-19 pandemic.</p><p>&quot;Naramdaman ko lang na nag-focus ako sa isang bagay na hindi ko alam, nalulungkot na pala ako, natatakot, at nadi-depress. I started to lose weight. Hindi ko na-anticipate na hindi na pala ako kumakain nang tama o tamang oras, o nag-one meal a day lang ako. Hindi ko &#x27;yun napansin. And of course, I have my kids here… wala namang problema,&quot; she said in an interview with PEP back in March 2021.</p><p>She also added that her husband Gary Gotidoc suffered a stroke that time.</p><div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2021/1/19/fresh-scoops/panoorin-regine-velasquez-sumabak-sa-hide-and-s-191135"><strong><u>READ: Regine Velasquez, sumabak sa ‘Hide And Sing’ sa ‘It’s Showtime’</u></strong></a></div><p>The singer relayed that they were able to sell their property in Tarlac and then they used the money for their relocation to the US.</p><p>“You know, God had better plans. He made us sell the property, nagbayad the same day… that was January 5… January 7, they departed. They were able to find a job 22 hours later and they were able to find a home to rent na ang laki-laki, ang ganda-ganda na parang pwede ba nating bilhin &#x27;yun someday? Hindi naman binebenta… but you know, He provides,” she said.</p>
