The iconic &#x27;90s Sabado Nights girl revealed that her family will always be her top priority. </p><div><br/></div><p>“Siyempre isa yan sa considerations, kapag tumanggap ako ng project ano ang ma-fi-feel nila, magiging proud ba sila, hindi ba sila mag-ki-cringe sa akin? Baka ikahiya nila ako, yung mga ganun. But my kids are so open-minded. They’re very, very Canadian I guess. Hindi sila narrow-minded. Yung daughter ko she’s very mature, very liberated. She’s very educated so minsan ako pa yung mali. May mga statements ako na i-ko-correct niya ako. She’s very supportive and I think proud naman sila sa mga ginagawa ko. Wala namang problema. Okay naman kasi nag-ma-mature na rin sila. Pero yung mga mas bata, yung pang-apat ko pag may nakikita siya akong ka-kiss na guy sa screen na-u-upset siya. But now she understands na role lang yun. Hindi totoo yun,” she explained. </p>
