“And not only that, yung character ni Jill Ilustre would probably be one of the hardest roles that I’ve done in my life and yung challenge na in-offer nung role yung depth, yung pagiging multi-layered nung character, I believe really pushed me as an actor and made me realize and discover na meron pa pala, kaya pa palang isagad, puwede pa pala itong gawin. Dahil dito mas naniwala ako na kaya ko pa pala mag-grow sa craft ko,” she admitted.

“Our life will only move towards the direction of our decisions so we have to really choose wisely. Choose our battles. If you’re given the chance to fight or to let go, that’s up to you. But if you were given the chance to treat the person the same way the person treated you. I always hope that we choose the high road and that we always choose to do better,” she said.
