ACTRESS Liza Soberano explained her month-long absence from social media, saying she has been taking time to reflect on her “mission in life.”
On Twitter, the star addressed her fans, writing: “Hi everyone! Sorry I’ve been MIA for a while. Just savoring the time I have with the people most special to me.
“But I do constantly have all of you at the back of my mind and I just want to say thank you so much for all the love and support everyone has been showing me this past month.”
Soberano is currently in the United States, where she is taking care for her grandmother.
“It’s honestly been a very trying time for me and I wanted to express how I was feeling with all of you but it was just too soon for me,” she said.
“I needed to take a break and think about life, my goals and what I think my mission is in life.”
Soberano, 22, was recently the subject of controversy when a military official issued her a public warning for participating in a women’s welfare program of the rights group Gabriela.
Soberano’s part in the virtual talk, where she urged influential personalities to speak up for those who are marginalized including women and children, snowballed into the national discussion on “red-tagging,” with the likes of Catriona Gray and Angel Locsin being targeted, too, for their own advocacy.(ABS-CBN)
