How does John Estrada perceive himself? Does he see himself as someone very appealing to women?

In a “Rated Korina” interview, The “Batang Quiapo” actor was asked by show host Korina Sanchez: “…Sa palagay mo habulin ka?”

“Honestly, Ms. K, hindi ko rin alam kung ano ‘yung term na habulin. I don’t consider myself na habulin,” said Estrada, whose marriage with actress-beauty queen Priscilla Meirelles is seemingly on the rocks.

Sanchez then asked again, “Totoo ba ‘yan?” to which Estrada answered, “Hindi talaga. Ang alam ko lang medyo friendly ako.”

“Friendly — sa Tagalog parang may term tayo d’yan; parang walang masamang tinapay sa akin,” he explained.

During the interview, Estrada also opened up about his most important role in life which is being a dad to his five children Inah, Moira, Kaila, Yuan and Anechka.

“I don’t think I have a secret or a formula [as a father]. I have four girls now and akala ko mas magiging strict ako, pero hindi pala,” he stated.

“Habang tumatanda ‘yung mga anak ko, nag-iiba ‘yung ano ng tatay e,” he continued. “Parang [sinasabi ko sa sarili ko], ‘Intindihin mo na lang ‘yan. Gano’n talaga. Pinagdaanan mo rin naman ‘yan e.'”

Mental, emotional state

When asked if he is in a “good place” in terms of his mental and emotional state, Estrada said, “I’ll probably say stable, but I’m still learning every single day.”

“Alam kong may edad na ako pero hindi naman ako naniniwala na ‘pag may edad ka na, alam mo na lahat,” he noted.

The actor further shared what he hopes to become after 10 years. “I’ll be in my 60s but marami naman akong nakitang mga kaibigan ko na nasa 60s na but still active. Of course, how I wish na gano’n din ako.”

“At tahimik na,” he said, chuckling. “Tahimik na ang buhay-buhay.”
