Walong buwan na pagsasama at hindi biro ang relasyon. Pwede palang mangyari iyon. Hindi mo kadugo, pero binibigay mo iyong puso mo at lahat, itinuring mong anak. Kung ano ang pain niya, pain mo pero hindi mo siya kadugo. Ganoon ka-powerful ang love,” actress Nova Villa, who played Mamang in the series, stated.</p><p>“Labis, labis ako talagang nagpapasalamat at saludong-saludo ako sa bumuo ng istorya na ito,” she added, making the directors and cast shed tears.</p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/C5ango9BNr_/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A178938.5%2C%22ls%22%3A178390.30000000075%2C%22le%22%3A178647.3999999985%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" 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></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>The actress-comedian also revealed how, even after decades in the entertainment industry, she was able to learn something new about herself through the show.</p><p>“Sa tagal ko sa industriya, alam niyo naman ang forte ko comedy, pero ako mismo nadiscover ko ang sarili ko. Pwede pala, pwede pala ako magdrama pero hindi lang drama, kung hindi makatotohanan. Yung pinakita namin, yung binuhos naming effort, yung puso,” she emotionally said.</p><p>“Kahit tapos na ang taping, tapos na ang lahat, mananatili ang pag-ibig na nabuo sa taping na ito ng Can’t Buy Me Love… Hindi po acting ito, talagang naramdaman namin. Tumatagos sa puso ng viewers natin.”</p><p>She went on: “Dito ipinakita natin na ang pag-ibig nananaig. Pwedeng magmahal ng kahit na sino kaya maraming, maraming salamat sa lahat ng suporta.&quot;</p><p>Actor Donny Pangilinan, who played the adopted child of Nova’s Mamang Nene, Bingo, couldn’t help but be emotional too as he expressed his gratitude to the actress, whom he compared to his own lola.</p><p>“I couldn’t imagine anyone else that&#x27;s more perfect than Tita Nova. Grabe po yung binigay niya po sa amin sa show. Never po siya nag-no kahit sobrang hirap po ng eksena, kitang-kita na nahirapan na siya, sige pa rin. Kahit overtime na, siya pa rin magsasabi na (ituloy),” he said.</p><p>“Tita Nova, maraming salamat po. Never ko po naranasan ito with anyone else. Sobrang malapit po ako sa Lola so marami pong salamat,” he added.</p><p><a href="http://ent.abs-cbn.com/cantbuymelove" id="isPasted" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="box-sizing:border-box;color:rgb(93, 155, 192);text-decoration:none;user-select:auto;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255)" target="_blank"><strong style="box-sizing:border-box"><u style="box-sizing:border-box"><em style="box-sizing:border-box">Can&#x27;t Buy Me Love</em></u></strong></a>  is still airing every weekday on several platforms, such as the Kapamilya Channel A2Z, TV5, TFC, iWant, and video streaming provider, Netflix.</p>
