According to Anne, it was never part of her plan to deliver her bundle of joy in Australia. But a few weeks before she gave birth, no one could convince the It’s Showtime host to take a break from working non-stop. So she thought giving birth in a place where work is far away from her was the best way to deal with the situation.

“Actually, it was a last minute decision really. Kasi I’d already chosen a doctor and a hospital and then, parang last minute I decided na parang I was working so hard kasi. And parang hindi nila ako mapigilang mag-work. So I felt that one way that would really get me to stop working is to just kind of be here,” she revealed.

“And major factor then kasi was being with my mom. Lalo na it’s my first baby and having her help me through it, ‘yun ‘yung naging parang du’n nalang ako para mas tahimik, mas quiet. I can really just focus on the first few weeks and months of my baby daughter’s life,” she said.

“Yeah. Pero given the current situation, na-extend talaga ‘yung stay namin dito because I mean, if it was just me, no problem. Kaya kong lumipad anytime, ‘di ba? Pero now, I have a little life to think off and she is the top priority. Her safety is the top priority and her health,” she said.

“I’m here in Victoria. And we’re still in lockdown. Lockdown pa rin kami. And honestly, the silver lining of it all is that we get to spend … well, Dahlia gets both of her parents 24/7. As in 24/7. And pareho kami,” she said.

She added: “So I think that’s the beauty of what’s happening now — is that we get to spend so much time with her. I mean all of our hours are dedicated to just Dahlia.”
