Jennylyn Mercado figured in a minor accident after she fell while riding a big bike, but she assured fans that she had sustained no severe injuries as she was wearing protective gear at the time.
The actress detailed the incident, which was apparently caused by slippery road, during her interview on “24 Oras” on Monday, March 25.
“‘Yung ulo ko tumama sa floor pero safe pa rin ako dahil naka-helmet ako, naka-gears ako—complete ‘yung gear ko at protected ‘yung buong katawan ko,” she said.
(My head hit the floor but I was safe because I was wearing a helmet and gears; I had complete gears and my whole body was protected.)
“I’m very thankful na walang major na nangyari sa akin,” she told the news program. (I’m very thankful that nothing serious happened to me.)
Dennis Trillo, Mercado’s husband, who was with her when the accident happened, admitted that he was startled after witnessing such.
“Kitang-kita ko e. Nasa harapan ko kasi siya. Tinitingnan ko siya habang nangyari ‘yon,” he recalled during the interview. “Nakakabigla dahil first time namin maaksidente sa kalsada talaga.”
(I saw it [because] she was in front of me. I was looking at her when it happened. I was startled because it was the first time we got in an accident on the road.)
Meanwhile, Mercado and Trillo are set to work together in the upcoming romance-comedy film “Everything about My Wife,” where they will star alongside Sam Milby.
