STRUGGLING
BECAUSE she was hard-pressed for money, the actress had no choice but to approach her ex to take care of their kids financially. But the problem is that her ex-husband wouldn’t talk to her. He would rather course everything through their kids. The actress is known to have anger management issues, and he didn’t want there to be any more trouble between them. The actress was so desperate that she talked to his girlfriend, who was hesitant to help because she knew this would escalate to something negative. So what happened next? The wife did get to ask money from the husband, who told her that he was also having some difficulties but he would share what he had for their kids.
OUTBREAK
IT’S not easy to navigate through this pandemic especially if your business is dependent upon things that require the personal presence of people. These things can include tapings for TV shows. A young star recently tested positive for Covid-19 and it happened while she was in a locked-in taping for a show. What is ironic about the locked-in taping is that it was held beside a mall, and there were no actual restrictions on the artists, staff and crew of the show. If the young star had Covid-19 during the taping, she could have infected anyone and everyone around her. Here’s the sad part: A family member of the young star’s got the virus before she did and she knew going into the taping but because she needed the money, she had to soldier on.
VIA INSTAGRAM ONLY
IF you follow these personalities, you’ll see that a comedian has been leaving comments on the Instagram posts of his kids asking how they are and saying he misses them. The kids grew up with their mom, from whom the comedian is separated. The dad is now married with kids. The comedian’s grown children seem to be so awkward about acknowledging him in person when, according to sources, it was their mom who caused the breakup of the marriage. The comedian is struggling financially but he isn’t doing it to ask his kids for money. Reportedly, he really just misses them. To be fair to the mom, she is past the point of forbidding her kids to stop talking to their dad. She doesn’t care at all as she has her own life and she’s happy.
STALLED PLANS
LIKE many Filipinos, the star’s source of livelihood was badly affected by the pandemic as there are hardly any tapings nor personal appearances. Even her husband’s income suffered greatly. The couple had been building their dream house but the pandemic happened and this had to stop. The star and her husband are not poor but in order to maintain the lifestyle that they’re used to, they’ve had to let go of some of their staff. Their family is growing and they cannot afford to continue spending so much without regular income coming in. The dream house can wait. The important thing is to survive these difficult times, especially with the future so uncertain.
