00:14 And welcome to Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.
00:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:26 Merry Christmas.
00:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:42 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

01:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:24 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:27 As as mothers, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:32 Jackie.
01:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:35 With my first child, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:39 overprotective.
01:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:42 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:45 I'm not saying as mothers, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:47 But there's also wisdom and beauty
01:49 in just allowing them to be kids.
01:51 And just watching--
01:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:55 But of course, with my other kids,
01:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:07 Yeah, maybe being a bit overprotective.
02:11 At the end of the day, after a while,
02:13 you have to let them go.
02:14 And it's nice [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:16 to stand on their feet.
02:17 And you're just there supporting them.
02:19 Did any of your children make you feel--
02:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:28 You know, now that I'm at this age,
02:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:32 I'm going to tell something to my eldest, OK, Ken.
02:36 Or you're already trying to give them the answer.
02:42 And then Ricky May would say, mom, stop.
02:45 Just let him figure.
02:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:47 OK, I'll just shut up.
02:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:49 You want to solve it.
02:51 You want to give them the--
02:52 and my other daughter would say, mom, it's OK.
02:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:55 Who is this, Arabella?
02:56 See, Ricky May would tell me.
02:57 Oh, Ricky's pretty smart.
02:59 Pretty cool.
03:00 Yeah, Ricky's pretty smart.
03:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:02 I don't mean to say the others are not.
03:04 But I just give him the options and let him figure it out
03:08 for himself.
03:09 You know, I had Ricky on the show.
03:11 Yeah, she was here when--
03:12 I know.
03:13 I met Ricky May.
03:14 And [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] Ricky about the coming out of--
03:20 Of Ricky May.
03:21 Yeah.
03:22 Yes.
03:23 Because when Ricky May came out to me, Ricky May told me--
03:26 Surprise.
03:27 Surprise.
03:28 When Ricky May came out to Ricky, the night before,
03:30 she wrote her dad a letter.
03:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:34 So I think [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:42 I already knew it.
03:44 I had a feeling now.
03:46 She was standing in front of me.
03:48 She had told me that day, mom, I have to tell you something.
03:52 And to my mind, I said, oh my, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:54 I knew it now.
03:55 I had a feeling now.
03:56 And then she was there standing in front of me for 15 minutes.
03:59 And I'm like, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:01 I said, Ricky May, do you want me to tell you
04:03 what I think you'll tell me?
04:05 And she goes, no, mom.
04:07 Let me.
04:08 I have to be the one to tell you.
04:10 So when she goes, mom, I'm gay.
04:12 This is my girlfriend.
04:13 I said, I know.
04:15 And I cried not because I was disappointed,
04:18 but because she had the courage to tell me.
04:22 And that was a big thing for me, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:26 who she was.
04:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:31 I'm proud.
04:32 I'm proud of you.
04:33 I'm proud of you, too.
04:35 I'm proud of you.
04:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:41 Because I had to be both mom and dad.
04:55 I had to put-- someone had to put food on the table.
04:58 Someone had to pay for her tuition fees.
05:01 I didn't want to depend [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:03 I told my dad, because he said, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:06 And I said, daddy, if I don't do this now, I will never learn.
05:10 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:13 So Casey, at a very young age, learned to also--
05:16 I would always tell her, you don't need a man
05:18 to have a good life.
05:19 You just work.
05:20 So you have something to--
05:22 very early on, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:24 But I also over--
05:25 I was so overprotective also of Casey.
05:27 Remember, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:35 I was so scared.
05:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:39 Sharon Gaby was a love thing.
05:45 So [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:47 So I was so overly protective.
06:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:04 How much of Casey is you?
06:08 She's more like her papa.
06:10 A little bit of me, of course.
06:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:15 How much of you is Tita Elaine, your mother?
06:19 Very little.
06:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:23 Yeah, more like Tita Helen and my dad.
06:27 No, I'm not--
06:28 I appreciate my mom now.
06:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:34 Well, mom was more emotional.
06:47 And I see--
06:50 I see back it now that I'm older.
06:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:54 Suddenly, I put myself in her shoes one day.
06:57 And I said, oh my god.
07:00 It's not like my dad was so perfect.
07:04 Whatever it is, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:07 But I put myself in my mom's shoes.
07:09 And I thought of everything she had to endure also,
07:14 being a mistress.
07:16 You know, she wasn't the first wife.
07:18 Before her, there were seven other families.
07:21 But after daddy's first wife, who was such a good, good woman
07:24 and so good to me and my brother, my mama Henning.
07:27 Did you see your mother suffer because of that?
07:30 When my dad would fool around, she
07:32 would really cry like a baby.
07:33 No, because it's not easy.
07:34 It's not.
07:35 That generation, it's not easy to be called a mistress.
07:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:38 And that's why--
07:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:40 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:41 No, no, because people have a little--
07:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:45 Naturally, the--
07:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:47 But they have to remember my mama was like--
07:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:51 But I guess it's a big deal because when he found mommy,
07:56 he stayed with mommy.
07:57 I never lived one night without my dad with us.
08:01 So I really--
08:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:03 So they got married.
08:04 I was 27.
08:05 Then they had to adopt me and my brother.
08:07 Oh.
08:08 Legally.
08:09 Yeah.
08:10 So I was never made to feel like--
08:12 Did you have a conversation with mom about this thing?
08:15 When I was older, I said, mom, if you're so miserable,
08:18 why didn't you leave?
08:20 Yeah.
08:21 And she said, well, I'm not going to leave you.
08:23 If you're so miserable, why didn't you leave?
08:26 Yeah.
08:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:28 It was our generation.
08:29 It's our generation.
08:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:33 But she was the most-- the thing she was most scared of
08:37 was [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] about me and Kuya.
08:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:42 But people now are more--
08:44 nobody's perfect.
08:45 No.
08:46 You can't expect everybody to be a step further.
08:49 And children have nothing to do with it.
08:50 Yes.
08:51 Children have nothing to do with it.
08:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:54 Exactly.
08:55 But that's the thing.
08:57 I am amazed that my mother and father never made me feel--
09:01 me or my brother feel that we were not a regular family.
09:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:06 We were so welcome.
09:14 And our stepmother was so loving towards us.
09:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:19 That's daddy's original wife, Mama Henning.
09:23 They had 10 children.
09:25 And I was closest to my Kuya Boy King, who passed away.
09:28 I would have imagined it would not have been easy
09:30 because you were a colossal star.
09:34 Yes.
09:35 I didn't care what people said.
09:36 I was proud to be the daughter of my dad and mom.
09:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:42 And you cannot-- my mom was not the first wife.
09:47 But that doesn't mean she wasn't a good woman.
09:49 That's right.
09:50 My dad was her first everything, although she
09:52 was engaged to someone else.
09:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:54 And your dad stayed with your mom.
09:56 Exactly.
09:57 I like that.
09:58 He had girls after pa, but he never left my mom.
10:01 But that doesn't mean that my mom was a good woman.
10:04 Yes.
10:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:08 How much can you tell us about this [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:11 When I am hurt, the kids get hurt.
10:14 There's some sibling squabbles.
10:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:20 Any emotional experience [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:23 Jackie with any of your children--
10:25 Miguel, Kaki, Miel, Christina?
10:29 Christina, I think.
10:31 Because [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] when she came to Araneta
10:34 to watch "Dear Heart," she came already the night
10:36 before in the rehearsals.
10:38 It was the first time for me to see her
10:41 since my birthday, which was January.
10:45 So October 9 concert.
10:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:55 I feel for my daughter.
10:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:00 When she came--
11:01 I know.
11:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:04 We lost so much.
11:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:08 Gabby, me, and Casey.
11:11 And we could have not lost so much.
11:15 Yeah.
11:16 We could have had a good life, the three of us,
11:18 because Gabby and I were OK.
11:19 Yeah.
11:20 Yeah.
11:22 Then things happened.
11:23 And I just-- up to now, it pinches me a lot.
11:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:37 Now I have Kaki and Miel and Miguel.
11:39 And I can't really say--
11:43 you don't really know if you can stay with someone forever.
11:47 But when you say, till death do us part,
11:49 that there's really-- we're only human beings.
11:52 I don't know.
11:53 It's so hard.
11:54 How did you two meet?
11:55 Oh my god.
11:56 I've been here three decades.
11:58 I've been in my marriage for--
11:59 Is that like you stood there and just watched life unfold?
12:01 Exactly, yeah.
12:02 I gave my best.
12:03 And I still am.
12:04 You're fighting.
12:05 So when my kids are grown, I raise them.
12:08 Wow.
12:09 He's a great father.
12:10 And maybe-- you know, once I brought it up, I said,
12:14 I have to be honest about this, because it's you.
12:17 And because it's me.
12:20 We always do this.
12:21 There.
12:22 That was the rehearsal.
12:23 Yeah.
12:24 The night before.
12:25 She cried too.
12:26 But I was--
12:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:31 Nothing matters.
12:42 I miss her so much.
12:45 Oh my god.
12:46 Look at us.
12:47 The three of us.
12:48 That family should have remained a family.
12:55 I did not imagine that that family would break up.
13:00 Ah, sorry, tissue, please.
13:02 I didn't-- never.
13:03 It wasn't in my-- thank you.
13:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:09 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:10 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:11 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:14 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:15 But then I wouldn't have had Kaki and Miguel.
13:17 Right.
13:18 But that's another thing.
13:19 This I have to say, because I said this to Kiko.
13:21 And I don't know if he'll mind me saying it, but I'll say it.
13:24 I said, maybe I shouldn't just stay alone.
13:28 Because [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] Casey, Frankie, Miguel,
13:41 I've been there for everybody in my life.
13:44 From the time I was a child, I had to be the good daughter,
13:49 the one who got good grades, the one who made the best
13:53 grades, the one who made her dad and mom proud.
13:56 And then I got married.
13:58 And then I would have died for Gabby.
14:02 And then it broke up.
14:03 I gave my life to Casey.
14:05 I don't know if she sees that.
14:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:09 But everything I did was for her.
14:13 She was my reason for being, for living.
14:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:21 Maybe I shouldn't be doing it.
14:23 Then you wouldn't have had the kids.
14:25 Yeah.
14:26 Yeah, yeah.
14:27 But what I'm saying is, my life is so complicated.
14:30 And it might get more complicated.
14:34 But I just wish my children, whom I love more than life
14:41 itself, I just wish I didn't have to drag them into my very
14:46 complicated existence.
14:48 They would have never been there just for me.
14:53 And this is dawning on me now.
14:55 I'm in the twilight end of my life.
15:00 So that's why you're becoming more aware of your mortality.
15:04 And so what will happen in the next 20 years, oh my goodness,
15:07 if you realize certain things and you just want to be--
15:10 can I just be honest with myself?
15:13 Can I just for once look at me in the mirror and say,
15:17 are you doing, little girl?
15:19 Because I always keep my little girl shy.
15:24 Let me just ask you-- you may or you may not answer this.
15:27 How much can you tell us about this [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]??
15:30 Is it something very personal?
15:32 Is that-- what is the--
15:35 Let's just say when I am hurt, the kids get hurt.
15:39 OK.
15:40 And then there's some sibling squabbles.
15:45 And then the stepfather or the father gets involved.
15:50 And until [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] you just have to say, stop!
15:54 OK.
15:55 OK.
15:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:00 So breathe [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:09 That happens.
16:10 Of course.
16:11 But it's also good to have that space.
16:15 Not that you have to decide on anything,
16:17 but like [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] and let's just let things--
16:20 and then take it to the other side.
16:22 Take a few steps backward.
16:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:24 You have a better view, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:26 Yes.
16:27 And I'm older.
16:28 Not less pain, but a better view.
16:29 Yeah, better view.
16:30 Better perspective.
16:31 Yes, better perspective.
16:32 Better perspective.
16:33 And I'm sorry to make you cry.
16:34 I'm sorry, too.
16:35 I didn't mean to.
16:36 I'm just really--
16:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:38 I'm just so happy because I haven't seen this girl in months.
16:40 Maybe, or years.
16:41 I don't know.
16:42 Years.
16:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:44 Please invite everybody to watch the movie.

17:50 Last question.
17:52 As friends, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:55 what is-- I'm sure you talk very often.
17:59 The one thing that you want to tell each other right now
18:02 as we celebrate Christmas?
18:04 We said it not to each other.
18:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:07 But we had a restart.
18:08 Yeah, we had a restart.
18:09 I was going towards that.
18:11 And after losing Sherry--
18:13 Wow, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:16 I realized I have to give more time because she's
18:19 been there since GMA Super Show.
18:21 We started here.
18:22 This is where I honed my hosting skills.
18:26 We did my third movie ever together, My Only Love.
18:32 She's been part of my life for so long.
18:35 And your story.
18:36 Yeah.
18:37 So--
18:38 Yeah.
18:39 Jackie, go.
18:40 I think it's just nice that we were able to reconnect
18:43 and we can start making new memories again.
18:47 Yeah.

19:08 Yes.
19:09 And what a great time to have reconnected.
19:11 Yes.
