00:26.0
Kung bakit, para sa akin, isa to sa magiging pinakamasaya but at the same time,
00:32.0
serious interviews na magagawa natin dito sa Louise Listens.
00:37.0
Dahil naniniwala ako, marami tayong matutunan sa kanya.
00:40.0
In fact, kamakilan sila yung laman ng internet talaga na pag-uusapan.
00:46.0
And aminin naman natin na pagpipiestahan ang mga nangyayari sa kanila mga personal na buhay.
00:51.0
Kaya naman kasama natin ngayon walang iba, si Ms. Grace, also known as Malithis.
00:59.0
Hello po and welcome po sa Louise Listens sa Lucky TV.
01:02.0
At gusto ko lang i-confirm, dalala natin si Ms. Grace yan, ang galing pang United States.
01:05.0
Kamusta po? Why are you here in the Philippines?
01:07.0
Just vacation and just have fun, make content.
01:11.0
Isipin nyo, bakasyon yung tao pero pumunta pa rin sa Louise Listens.
01:16.0
Turist spot ang dating ko.
01:18.0
Talagang kahit mga foreigner, hinahanap to it.
01:21.0
Pero wag yun pong hanapin, may asawat, anak na ako.
01:25.0
So Ms. Grace, kamusta kayo?
01:26.0
The year is fairly new, 2023 po tayo.
01:29.0
But how was your 2022?
01:31.0
Everyone knows exactly what happened.
01:34.0
But you know, I'm getting through it.
01:36.0
You know, slowly, slowly healing with the help of my family and friends.
01:43.0
How's the family to begin with?
01:45.0
Yung mga chikiting, kamusta po sila?
01:48.0
They're slowly healing also.
01:50.0
Two of them mayroon silang autism so they don't really understand.
01:55.0
Pero yung youngest namin, yung si CJ, yung kasama namin sa vlog,
01:59.0
he's trying to adjust kasi you know, it's a shock.
02:02.0
Of course, syempre pinag-uusapan din natin si Sir Pambansang Kolokoy.
02:06.0
Para sa mga nakakatutok lang, yung pinag-uusapan natin.
02:08.0
Now let me ask you po.
02:09.0
You know, my parents also chose to go different paths when I was younger.
02:12.0
And ano po yung ginawa ninyo when you came to that point
02:15.0
na you guys thought that it's time for us to say, inupunyo ba sila?
02:19.0
Or na parang this is what's gonna happen with mama and papa?
02:23.0
Like how did they understand that concept na kailangan nyo pong maghiwalay?
02:29.0
Ginawa po, sabi ko, you guys need to come here.
02:32.0
So sabi ko, your dad needs to tell you guys something.
02:36.0
In the beginning, ayaw niya.
02:37.0
Ayaw niyang sabihin sa mga kids.
02:41.0
But I had to because they need to know.
02:43.0
They need to know what's going on.
02:45.0
Hindi yung wala na siya.
02:47.0
It's like, nasan si dad?
02:50.0
So we have to explain it to them as a respect to my kids
02:55.0
and especially CJ, he's close to us.
02:58.0
So we had to tell them.
03:01.0
And how did they take it po?
03:02.0
Baka akala nila prank.
03:03.0
Baka akala nila joke.
03:05.0
No, totoo naman diba?
03:06.0
Kasi akala mo lang bigla, then all of a sudden na you're talking about a separation.
03:11.0
So for them, initially ba, were they thinking na it was a prank lang or part of a skit?
03:17.0
Parang nashock si CJ.
03:18.0
Yung dalawa, parang hindi nila maintindihan.
03:22.0
Kasi yung isa, it's like first grade level.
03:25.0
Yung isa, fourth grade level.
03:27.0
So parang, I think at that time, hindi sila nakikinig.
03:31.0
Or parang wala lang.
03:33.0
Hindi nila maintindihan.
03:34.0
Ako yung sasayay ko lang din.
03:36.0
Currently, naghiwalay ang magulang ko when I was maybe five or six years old.
03:44.0
Pakisipan yung punchline to.
03:45.0
Naikwento sa akin ng mommy ko na sila ni daddy, binala ako.
03:51.0
Seryoso yung kwento ko.
03:52.0
Na dinala ako sa sementeryo.
03:55.0
Parang ako, hindi ako nagkakamali.
03:57.0
I could be wrong.
03:58.0
Parang sa libingan ng mga bayani.
04:01.0
Because they wanted to have a quiet time with me.
04:03.0
Wala na mas tatahimik pa sa sementeryo.
04:06.0
So kapag, that's where they explained.
04:08.0
Na parang anak, mommy and I, we know we have to go our separate ways.
04:12.0
And for some reason, I fully understood.
04:14.0
And I believe, do you agree?
04:16.0
It's something that as a parent,
04:20.0
That's why you put in that effort.
04:22.0
They need to know.
04:23.0
They need to know so that they can understand what's going on.
04:29.0
Bagong taon para sa inyo, para sa pamilyo.
04:31.0
How has your 2023 been so far?
04:35.0
Better than last year.
04:48.0
we're still slowly healing.
04:50.0
And I'm more active now.
04:52.0
I'm in Wonder Z's vlogs and Choose One.
04:56.0
So I'm keeping myself busy.
04:58.0
Working, taking care of the family.
05:01.0
At the same time, I'm trying to be active in social media.
05:04.0
And I see that you're smiling.
05:06.0
And it's a process.
05:08.0
Hindi naman pwede mo sabihing na isang araw, okay ka lang.
05:11.0
Ano yung biggest learnings mo sa 2022 na medyo maraming nangyari, Ms. Grace?
05:16.0
Magbigay ka ng 84 learnings.
05:21.0
Magbigay kami ng papel.
05:22.0
Pakisulat na ng 84.
05:23.0
Babalik ako in 2 hours.
05:27.0
Pinatest po ng 2 hours.
05:28.0
Biggest learnings po of 2022?
05:30.0
I think that love isn't enough when you're in a relationship.
05:37.0
Okay, okay, okay.
05:39.0
Kasi you need trust.
05:41.0
You need to be transparent.
05:43.0
You need to communicate.
05:46.0
And you need to value your partner.
05:49.0
You need to understand.
05:51.0
That's the key to have a good relationship.
05:55.0
Healthy, open, honest communication.
05:58.0
Actually, ang ganda.
05:59.0
Actually, sinabi ni mami ko rin yan.
06:01.0
Na it's not simply about love.
06:03.0
It's also about respect.
06:05.0
Kasi pwede mo mahalin yung tao,
06:06.0
pero pwede mo hindi mo talaga nire-respeto yung pagkatao ng isang tao.
06:10.0
So yan maganda rin yung transparency, yung trust, and everything.
06:14.0
For example, pag-usapan na natin na what really happened,
06:18.0
if you don't mind,
06:19.0
kay Pangbansang Kolokoy o si Sir Joel, tawagin natin.
06:22.0
How did you get to that point na parang kailangan na natin maghiwalay?
06:28.0
No, it never got to that point.
06:30.0
It never got to that point where we talked about it.
06:34.0
Nag-break up na kami because he didn't have time for me.
06:38.0
Parang napifeel ko na there's something going on,
06:41.0
pero I don't have the evidence.
06:44.0
When you say, just to be sure,
06:45.0
when you say going on,
06:46.0
parang there might be someone else involved, ganoon mo ba?
06:51.0
But I couldn't confirm it.
06:54.0
Wala na yung relationship namin.
06:55.0
Parang we're just friends with kids.
06:59.0
Wala na yung feeling.
07:00.0
There's no more spark.
07:01.0
Yung sabi kasi na sa isang relasyon,
07:03.0
it will always evolve.
07:05.0
It will not always be romantic love.
07:08.0
Magiging parang companionship na lang yan.
07:10.0
Pero maganday nandiyan pa rin yung paligaw-ligaw.
07:12.0
Noong nandiyan yung feeling, sabi mo nga Ms. Grace,
07:14.0
na parang there was someone else in the scenario,
07:18.0
did you ever ask man lang?
07:22.0
Because I always get like emails,
07:24.0
like random emails.
07:27.0
So I'm like, is this true?
07:28.0
Of course, he's gonna deny, di ba?
07:31.0
So, okay, I believe you.
07:33.0
Because you told me before na hindi mo gagawin yun.
07:37.0
So I trusted him.
07:38.0
So parang bali wala lang.
07:40.0
But every time, I always get that message.
07:42.0
If you know what I'm asking,
07:44.0
kung sakasakali man,
07:45.0
like your past relationships or experiences,
07:50.0
Very trusting kang individual?
07:52.0
O nagkataon lang na kay Sir Joel?
07:54.0
Because I guess you have the family setup talaga.
07:57.0
Or you've always been a puwedeng martir?
07:59.0
Or a trusting individual?
08:01.0
Yes, I've always been trusting.
08:03.0
And plus, we've been together for 25 years.
08:06.0
I wouldn't think that he would do that
08:08.0
because ang tagal na namin.
08:09.0
We talked about growing old together.
08:12.0
When we see old couples, they're holding hands.
08:15.0
We say, we're gonna be like that, right?
08:17.0
Yun ang pinag-usapan namin.
08:18.0
So I never thought that he would do something like that.
08:20.0
And I guess everyone watching you guys,
08:23.0
kahit ako may mga ibang clips kayo
08:25.0
na I shared before on my social media pages,
08:28.0
parang you can see that it's an ideal family.
08:31.0
But we all know it's different
08:32.0
whatever's on social media
08:33.0
compared to how it is in real life.
08:35.0
So up to this day,
08:36.0
kung ano man yung hinala niyo po,
08:38.0
whatever your suspicions were,
08:39.0
it's still never confirmed.
08:41.0
Or finally, at one point,
08:42.0
you were able to get a sort of confirmation
08:45.0
about whatever your suspicion was.
08:47.0
Yes, it was confirmed.
08:48.0
How was that moment po?
08:50.0
Kasi sabi mo, before, you could brush it aside.
08:52.0
O, may nag-email sa akin,
08:53.0
nag-ganito-ganito.
08:54.0
Sabi namin, o, totoo ba to?
08:57.0
Ang daling kausap.
09:01.0
Eto, may pictures kayo.
09:02.0
Nagkahalikan kayo.
09:06.0
Ang daling kausap.
09:09.0
nung nagkaroon na ng konti nga confirmation,
09:11.0
how did you take it?
09:12.0
And what did you do about it?
09:15.0
I was like, what?
09:16.0
Ba't kinawa mo yun?
09:17.0
I mean, confirmation.
09:18.0
If you don't mind me asking,
09:19.0
anong klaseng confirmation?
09:20.0
Was it a picture?
09:21.0
Tumawag yung babae sa akin.
09:28.0
Isa ba siya sa mga napaghinalaan mo na dati?
09:31.0
Or completely new?
09:34.0
The night before,
09:35.0
someone kept calling me.
09:37.0
So I kept ignoring it.
09:39.0
it's still an unknown caller.
09:40.0
So hindi ko sinagot.
09:43.0
So then there's a text.
09:44.0
I need to talk to you about his name.
09:48.0
So I said, what is it?
09:49.0
Parang si Voldemort na reporter.
09:51.0
He who shall not be named.
09:55.0
Sinasabi ko yung name.
09:57.0
So finally, when you replied?
09:58.0
So at the same time,
10:03.0
and the girl called.
10:04.0
At the same time,
10:05.0
nandiyan si Joel sa tabi ko.
10:08.0
And yun, sinabi niya na
10:09.0
they've been together for a long time.
10:11.0
And this is March 2022.
10:16.0
we've been together for a long time
10:18.0
and we're gonna have a baby in July 2022.
10:23.0
nagkinawa mo yun?
10:26.0
nag-sorry naman siya.
10:28.0
he regretted it, I think.
10:30.0
He was sorry for what he did.
10:32.0
Were you very confrontational
10:33.0
pagdating sa ganon?
10:34.0
Or you simply shut down,
10:37.0
and you were just asking
10:38.0
how that happened?
10:44.0
I thought we were okay.
10:46.0
like I was really shocked.
10:47.0
Blindsided talaga?
10:49.0
Because we broke up.
10:50.0
I thought that was just a breakup.
10:51.0
I never thought that
10:52.0
he would have another girlfriend.
10:55.0
there was a, you know,
10:56.0
a few things going on.
10:59.0
so the next few days
11:00.0
after that revelation po,
11:02.0
ano mga ginawa niyo?
11:03.0
We decided to get back together.
11:06.0
Kasi I was willing to take him back.
11:07.0
That's how much I loved him.
11:11.0
Medyo matinding dating na yun ha?
11:13.0
Nagka-confrontation,
11:15.0
but you decided to get back together pa rin?
11:18.0
I still accepted him.
11:19.0
Parang feeling ko
11:20.0
pagkatapos ni Mother Teresa,
11:21.0
kayo na po ang susunod.
11:23.0
Parang ang lupit.
11:26.0
I'm sure marami sa mga nanonood
11:31.0
was already in front of you,
11:32.0
lahat ng kailangan mo,
11:33.0
yung evidence na hindi mo niyo makuha,
11:35.0
nagkausap na kayo.
11:38.0
Because I loved him
11:39.0
and I wanted our family
11:41.0
So kailan yung point talaga na,
11:43.0
it's about time na
11:44.0
we really have to go our separate ways?
11:46.0
Ano yung naging mitsa
11:47.0
for that decision?
11:48.0
Kasi ibang feeling e,
11:51.0
it's like maybe later on
11:55.0
you can't undo the baby.
12:01.0
we went on dates,
12:02.0
we were together,
12:03.0
but iba na talaga.
12:04.0
But we kindled a romance.
12:06.0
iba na ang feeling.
12:13.0
you either have to stay with us
12:18.0
I wanna be with her
12:19.0
because she's carrying my baby.
12:22.0
How did you take that po?
12:25.0
Kasi nag-effort ka rin naman e.
12:27.0
After learning all that,
12:28.0
mag-dedate pa kayo.
12:31.0
di ko lang ma-imagine.
12:33.0
So habang nandedate kayo,
12:35.0
kamusta na pala yung baby mo?
12:38.0
yung wala kayong mapag-usapan,
12:41.0
habang nag-antay.
12:42.0
Can I get a glass of wine, please?
12:45.0
nagpo-ultrasound na?
12:48.0
di ko ma-imagine.
12:53.0
I was trying to accept,
12:54.0
but iba na talaga ang feeling.
12:56.0
I can't believe you did that.
12:57.0
It will always be
12:58.0
at the back of your mind.
13:02.0
marami kayong followers.
13:05.0
show this happy family.
13:07.0
Did they ever notice ba?
13:09.0
when things were getting
13:11.0
Parang napapansin ba nila
13:13.0
iba yung dating ngayon
13:15.0
tsaka ni Ms. Grace.
13:19.0
everything is okay.
13:21.0
Everything is okay
13:26.0
Like what I said,
13:27.0
is it harder for you
13:28.0
na parang you had to put up
13:31.0
na kailangan natin tayo?
13:34.0
baka mawalan tayo
13:36.0
baka mawawasan tayo.
13:37.0
Did you ever think about that?
13:40.0
because I don't care
13:41.0
about social media.
13:43.0
if we have followers
13:46.0
So ano yung naging
13:47.0
final conversation niya,
13:55.0
Paano po yung napunta
13:58.0
na usapan niyo po?
14:01.0
If you chose her,
14:03.0
ano pang ginagawa mo
14:06.0
He just started packing.
14:07.0
Kamusta kayo ngayon?
14:09.0
because we have kids,
14:11.0
but there's times when
14:13.0
parang off and on
14:14.0
friends and not friends.
14:18.0
before I came here,
14:19.0
nag-usap naman kami
14:21.0
for the first time
14:24.0
we're just friends.
14:26.0
Just like before,
14:27.0
yung naglulukuhan kami,
14:34.0
nagkabali ka na naman yan.
14:35.0
Nag-usap na naman tayo.
14:39.0
establish that relationship
14:44.0
it kind of felt good na
14:46.0
I'm trying to be like
14:47.0
maswing it to him
14:49.0
I can tell from his voice
14:50.0
na he's kind of having fun too
14:54.0
linoloko niya rin ako.
14:57.0
he's making jokes of me.
15:12.0
Yung effort niyong dalawa
15:16.0
I mean, especially CJ.
15:17.0
You know, he always says,
15:19.0
were back together.
15:22.0
mag-aayos niyo pa?
15:25.0
yun ang gusto ni CJ.
15:26.0
Gusto ko lang i-share ah.
15:27.0
Ako, dun naghiwalay din
15:30.0
Best of my knowledge,
15:32.0
memory ko talaga,
15:37.0
Hindi ko alam bakit.
15:42.0
kailangan nila maghiwalay
15:43.0
for whatever reason
15:53.0
Maghihiwalay sila
15:57.0
as parents sa akin.
15:58.0
And never ako umabot
16:07.0
Kasi there's always
16:08.0
something to blame
16:09.0
or someone to blame
16:10.0
for your actions.
16:11.0
At the end of the day,
16:13.0
Especially naman,
16:15.0
na you're putting on
16:16.0
the effort naman talaga
16:17.0
to be good parents
16:22.0
kung kayo pa Ms. Grace,
16:23.0
handa na ba kayong
16:26.0
I'm not gonna put my life
16:28.0
on hold for one person.
16:31.0
may mga nagpaparamdam na ba?
16:40.0
What you doing later?
16:41.0
May mga ganon-ganon na ba?
16:49.0
specifically entertaining?
16:57.0
or getting to know?
17:00.0
Ano yung mga hinahanap mo ngayon
17:02.0
sa isang partner?
17:06.0
it's a learning experience
17:07.0
ang napagdaanan mo
17:09.0
Anong hinahanap mo ngayon
17:10.0
sa isang magiging partner?
17:11.0
Someone who's emotionally mature.
17:14.0
communicate more.
17:19.0
express themselves
17:21.0
keep everything bottled in.
17:24.0
just communicate with me
17:25.0
if there's something
17:26.0
that I'm not doing right
17:29.0
And if he has goals in life.
17:33.0
And someone who can
17:35.0
and I don't have to
17:36.0
take care of them.
17:38.0
Someone to take care of you.
17:39.0
So ikaw Miss Grace,
17:40.0
anong advice may bibigay mo
17:42.0
I've been married for,
17:45.0
and we have a little one.
17:47.0
Kung magbigay po kayo
17:56.0
I keep saying this
17:58.0
but open and honest
18:00.0
Because a lot of men,
18:01.0
they don't want to
18:02.0
argue with the women.
18:09.0
So they always want,
18:10.0
they want to keep quiet
18:11.0
because they want to
18:12.0
avoid the conflict.
18:14.0
But if there's something
18:16.0
Maybe ako yung kaaway nyo.
18:17.0
Parang ako yung kaaway nyo.
18:21.0
Pakingin sa akin yun Miss Grace.
18:23.0
Kung may problema ka,
18:25.0
Kung may conflict,
18:27.0
Kinakabahan ako sa'yo.
18:29.0
Yeah, just be open.
18:31.0
just communicate.
18:33.0
kung anong nagyayari.
18:34.0
I don't want to be like
18:35.0
guessing, you know?
18:37.0
what's the best advice
18:38.0
you could give people,
18:41.0
Be there for them.
18:42.0
Family is always first
18:44.0
because others can wait.
18:47.0
other friends or jobs,
18:50.0
But family can't.
18:51.0
I completely agree.
18:53.0
bagong learning ko yan
18:55.0
pag nahawakan mo na
18:56.0
for the first time.
