“Ang laking parte ni Maria sa kung sino ako ngayon kasi kinumpleto niya ‘yung pagkababae ko. Siya ‘yung kumumpleto sa pangarap ko. Laging si Maria. Bawat trabaho, ‘yung dressing room ko, kailangang may mas malaking space nang konti kasi bitbit ko si Maria,” she said.

“Bilang first time mom, mag-six months siya (Maria) nung first appearance ko sa 'ASAP.' Medyo may hesitation akong gawin ‘yun kasi feel na feel ko talaga maging mom. Na-miss ko rin magsayaw. Nagsabi rin ako kay Rambo. Almost two weeks akong nag-prepare, at six hours ko siyang iniiwan, at talagang super guilty ako. Totoo pala talaga ‘yun (mom guilt),” she said.

Thanking her supporters, she told ABS-CBN News, “Hindi sa natakot. Kahit wala akong teleserye or pelikulang ginagawa, ang laking bagay na kasi ng social media. Hindi ako natakot kasi siguro ready akong magpakananay at maging isang asawa. Ang tagal kong dinasal na magkaroon ng sariling pamilya at maging isang nanay, at ibinigay sa akin. Napakasuwerte ko lang din po talaga na may mga nagtitiwala pa rin sa akin. Ang pinaka nami-miss ko ay ‘yung umarte.”
