Katrina Halili looks back at sex scandal issue, “It was the lowest point in my career”

• Katrina Halili named her sex scandal as the lowest point of her life.
• She expressed her gratitude towards Director Maryo delos Reyes for giving her a chance and helped her get her feet on the ground.

In an interview with PUSH, actress Katrina Halili was asked about the lowest point of her life in showbiz.

She answered that what she considers her lowest point is during her scandal.

“Ang lowest moment ng buhay ko… siguro yung isyu po sa akin (involving a sex scandal). Nung time na wala na akong contract sa GMA, yon nga, nung nagkaroon ako ng ganito.”

Katrina added that she’s thankful that amid the issue, someone still reached out to her and offered her a project. She said that it was like she was saved by an angel because he was there when she was down.

“Pero sobrang thankful ako dahil during nung lowest ko nandiyan si Direk Maryo [delos Reyes]. Kahit nagkaisyu ako ni-request niya ako sa soap opera niya. Tapos palagi na kaming magkasama.

“So, during my lowest, siya yung… alam mo yung parang ibinalik ka niya, kasi di ba nawala na ako? Parang ang swerte ko lang kasi parang angel siya na ibinalik niya ako. Kaya nung namatay siya, sabi ko, siguro angel siya na padala sa akin ni Lord kasi during nung lowest ko siya yung nandon.”

She shared that during that issue, she learned a lot of things like how to stay strong and rely on herself.

“Isang taon din ako halos na hindi nakikipag-usap. Nasa van lang ako. Bawal ang interbyu. Ayoko ng tinatanong ako bilang Katrina. Tapos hindi rin talaga ako tumatanggap ng project.

“Natutunan ko kung paano maging matatag. Kasi wala naman akong ibang aasahan. Ako lang din naman ang tutulong sa sarili ko. Kapag nagpaapekto ako, ako rin ang talo. Pagkatapos ng halos isang taon, naging okey na rin naman ako.

“Actually, never kong na-imagine na makakabalik pa ako and blessed ako na pinagkakatiwalaan pa rin nila ako.”
