<p>Kapamilya actress Kathryn Bernardo revealed that she got offers from other networks and management agencies before she signed an exclusive network contract with ABS-CBN on Friday, February 2.</p><p>In an exclusive interview with ABS-CBN News, the award-winning actress shared that she saw some news about her getting calls and offers from other management companies when her contract with the Kapamilya network was about to expire.</p><p>“I’ve seen the articles, the news, and for me naman kasi as a celebrity and siguro, I can speak in general for the celebrities, when your contract is ending, normal naman talaga to get offers from different networks, managements, or whatever. Parang it’s a normal thing,” she expressed.</p><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/C21eJBjP4Zg/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=524&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A1142782.7000000477%2C%22ls%22%3A1142362.9000000954%2C%22le%22%3A1142779.8000000715%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="1164" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><p>The actress also said that there is nothing wrong with getting offers, especially for those celebrities who decided to part ways from their previous management.</p><p>“And I don&#x27;t see anything wrong with it sa mga naka-decide na you know na lilipat. Desisyon mo &#x27;yun. We all have the freedom to decide kung sino ang gusto mong mag-manage sa &#x27;yo,” she stated.</p><p>The actress then shared that for her part, she declined such offers as her mind was already set on remaining with ABS-CBN and Star Magic, which have been her second home in her 20 years in the industry.</p><p>“Mabilis ko sigurong nasagot na hindi talaga. Because hindi ko naman siya naisip, because I&#x27;m very happy with everything now. Especially the partnership and the friendship with Direk Lauren (Dyogi) and Star Magic. Hindi ko talaga siya na na-entertain pero there were offers siyempre. But I know deep inside my heart na ABS is my only choice,” she remarked, highlighting the friendship and partnership they formed.</p><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-1" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/C21j9OjP_tQ/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=524&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A1%2C%22os%22%3A1142790.8000000715%2C%22ls%22%3A1142362.9000000954%2C%22le%22%3A1142779.8000000715%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="878" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-1" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><p>During the contract signing, Kathryn recalled that she made a promise with the Kapamilya network, four years ago during the network shutdown, to not leave and be with ABS-CBN until it recovers.</p><p>“I remember 2020, I made a promise. Sinabi ko sa ABS-CBN na ‘hindi kita iiwan at nandito lang ako hanggang makabangon ka ulit.’ Today, here I am fulfilling that promise. Ang daming nangyari sa ABS-CBN but mahal ko sobra yung kompanya,” the actress said.</p><p>“To my ABS-CBN family, this is my second home and alam kong medyo natagalan tayo dito hindi dahil sa iniisip niyo. I will always choose ABS-CBN. You know that this is my second home. You’re my Kapamilya and I will do anything for [my] family,” she added.</p><div><strong>READ: <a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2024/2/2/kathryn-bernardo-remains-with-abs-cbn-this-is-my-second-home-1545">Kathryn Bernardo remains with ABS-CBN: ‘This is my second home’</a></strong></div><p>Meanwhile, the talented actress is looking forward to her future projects, especially now that she is very open to comfortably working with anybody.</p><p>“I’m really open now to working with anybody.
