“It’s very important. Luis has been there for me. Noong nagpahinga ako sa showbiz for five years, siya ang nag-alaga sa’min (When I took a break from showbiz for five years, he took care of us),” she said of Manzano.

Throughout the event and behind the scenes, Mendiola had been receiving a lot of compliments on how glowing she looked, with some reporters praising that she even became sexier. But for the actress, she pointed out that “all the credit” goes to Manzano.

“It’s because of him. Inalagaan talaga niya ako. Ayokong magpaka-pride. I want to give him all the credit because he’s really a good provider… and that’s why I healed,” she said. “Ang daming nangyari sa’kin and isa siya sa rason kung bakit masaya ako. Tamang headspace ako to join the industry again.”

A lot of things happened, and he’s one of the reasons why I’m happy now. I’m in the right headspace to join the industry again.)
