Actress Francine Diaz recalled the hardship she and her family went through. Francine revealed that her father had to work as an OFW and also work as a Grab driver.
Francine narrated her story during a visit made by TV journalist Karen Davila. Karen showcased the new house of Francine.
“Yun po yung OFW ang Papa ko, pero umuwi siya. May ginawa sa kanya ang kasamahan niya. Dito na lang siya nag-work, yun po yung naging Grab Driver siya. Motor lang ang meron kami dati, hulugan pa.” said Francine.
Francine also related an incident where she needed to borrow money to pay for their bills – and the person who lended her the money is fellow actress Melai Cantiveros.
“Twelve po ako noon, yun ang time na mapuputulan na naman kami ng kuryente at tubig. Sobrang wala kaming malapitan noon kasi, sobrang laki na ng utang namin sa Tita ko.” said Francine.
“So, parang nahihiya naman kami na dala-dalawa ang uutangin namin. E, medyo close na kami ni Ate Melai doon, sobrang ate ko siya ro’n. Parang nag-try kami sa kanya. As in, wala talagang pag-aalinlangan, ‘Sige, magkano?” Francine added.
“Parang ako noon, wala naman akong pangalan, hindi naman ako artistang-artista dati, papahiramin niya kami ng pera? So, parang blessing, gift siya sa amin ni Bro. So, iyon po, hindi kami napalayas, hindi kami naputulan ng kuryente,” Francine said.
