Kim Chiu broke down in tears as she shared her sentiments about moving on, saying acceptance is key, even if it’s painful.
During the “Expecially for You” segment of It’s Showtime on Valentine’s Day, February 14, the TV hosts were touched by the story of a contestant named Fe who shared about separating from her husband after he cheated on her, yet she accepted him again seven years later given her love for him and their children. The husband, however, died during the pandemic.
Vice Ganda first offered his sentiments on the topic, saying moving on from the death of a loved one is a difficult process.
“Kapag nawalan ka ng mahal sa buhay, pinipilit mong mag-move on pero kahit san ka pumunta at kahit anong gawin mo, nakikita’t nararamdaman mo siya. Pupunta ka sa mall, gusto mo mag-enjoy, pero nararamdaman at naaalala mo siya,” he said.
Chiu then pitched in and remarked that everything that’s happening in people’s lives is meant to happen and that it is easy when they accept this mindset.
“Tsaka lahat ng nangyayari sa buhay natin, ‘di naman yon by chance or by accident. Lahat naman ng nangyayari sa buhay natin is written. Ginawa na ‘yon bago pa man tayo pinanganak. Mas madaling tanggapin ang lahat ng bagay,” the actress said while in tears.
The “Pinoy Big Brother” alumna underscored that the contestant’s life event was an example of how a situation that is meant to happen shapes someone’s personality.
“So, parang lahat ng nangyayari sa bawat tao, like si Mommy Fe, hindi naman nangyari ang paghihiwalay nila by accident. Sadyang itinadhana ‘yon and then binalik sa kanya, and then tinanggal uli sa kanya, and that made her strong,” she declared.
Chiu and her boyfriend of 11 years, Xian Lim, called it quits last December. Prior to the announcement of their breakup, however, Lim was being linked to his now-rumored new girlfriend, Iris Lee.
