ANGEL Locsin is taking her time off from the entertainment industry and enjoying her married life with her husband, Neil Arce, according to her close friend and fellow actress Dimples Romana.
Romana gave an update about Locsin’s current whereabouts during an interview with entertainment journalist Kiko Escuadro, while noting that she’s “fond” of people who are “checking up” on Locsin as it comes from a place of “concern” and longing.
“I’m very happy that she is taking this time off kasi nakita mo naman magtrabaho ‘yung taong ‘yun at grabe din ‘yun lumaban pagdating sa pandemya noon. Pagdating sa virus at trahedya, siya ang nauuna doon,” she said. “Lagi kong dasal sa kanya noon, dati, sabi ko sa kanya, please maghinay-hinay ka kasi ‘yung katawan mo. Tayo ay hindi bumabata, baka niyan magkasakit ka.”
The actress also said that she’s proud of Locsin who chose to take care of herself by enjoying her marriage with husband Neil Arce away from the spotlight.
“Ngayon na inaalagaan niya ang sarili niya, nandyan si Neil, ine-emjoy niya ang married life niya. Tahimik ang buhay niya ang saya-saya ko para sa kanya,” she said.
Romana pointed out during the interview that even though Locsin is away from the showbiz industry, she continues to extend help to those in need.
“She was very selfless. She was always giving herself. And this time when she chose to remain calm, be in the house, [and] enjoy married life, ‘yun ang sa akin ay kabilib-bilib. It’s a big choice but it’s also a choice that I feel is making her happier,” she said.
Apart from her showbiz career, Locsin remains quiet on social media. Her last X (formerly Twitter) post was made in August 2022, while her Instagram is currently set to private.
