Amid her mother-in-law Annabelle Rama’s “nagwawaldas” remark which was apparently aimed at her, Sarah Lahbati shared a hilarious quote about spending money to make her unwell-self feel better.

The actress drew laughs from netizens after she re-posted a photo quote from a clothing line via her Instagram Stories on Friday, Jan. 26.

“Ang sama ng pakiramdam ko. Feel ko kailangan kong gumastos,” the quote read. (I don’t feel well. I think I need to spend money.)

Lahbati also earlier addressed the moniker given to her by netizens, “Patron Saint of Waldas,” with the actress saying she just finds it “funny.”

“To everyone who wants to waldas, go ahead,” she advised, as per her interview with Philippine Entertainment Portal.

Lahbati and her husband, actor Richard Gutierrez, have been hounded by breakup speculations since late last year.

Rama, the actor’s mom, spoke up on the matter last December and declared that the truth would be revealed to the public in time.

“Si Richard trabaho nang trabaho, ‘yung isa nagwawaldas ng pera. ‘Yun lang ang masasabi ko diyan,” Rama said at the time. (Richard has been working hard, while the other one has been splurging. That’s all I can say.)

Meanwhile, Lahbati underscored in a recent interview that she and Gutierrez are “okay,” although the actress did not immediately confirm or deny their rumored separation.

Lahbati and Gutierrez have two sons together named Zion and Kai. According to Lahbati’s mom, Esther, the pair are “co-parenting” their kids.
