DID YOU KNOW that Kapamilya actress Kathryn Bernardo helped one of her “Goin’ Bulilit” batchmates finish college?
In a video message during Bernardo’s contract signing with ABS-CBN on Friday, Feb. 2, the show’s director Edgar Mortiz praised the actress for helping her batchmate.
“Ang hindi ko alam na ginagawa pala ni Kathryn na natuwa ako, nakita ko ‘yung nanay ng isang ‘Bulilit’ tapos kinuwento niya sa ‘kin nung namatay ang tatay ng ‘Bulilit’ na ‘to, ang nagpa-aral sa kanya, si Kathryn. Doon ko lang nalaman,” Mortiz said.
He added: “Tuwang-tuwa ako na hindi pala siya nakalimot sa mga kasama niya. Proud na proud ako kay Kathryn.”
While not mentioning the batchmate’s name, Bernardo recalled that the person was close to her.
“During that time, the dad, naging kaibigan namin ni Mama, alam mo ‘yun sabay kakain and then for a time nag-stop mag-artista ‘yung tao na ‘to and naka-receive kami ng message from the mom na ito ‘yung nangyari sa dad tsaka ‘di na rin siya nag-artista,” she said.
Bernardo said she wanted to fulfill the dream of the father noting how smart her batchmate is.
“Bilang nakasama mo, siyempre tutulong ka hangga’t kaya mo. ‘Yun ‘yung ni-promise namin ni Mama sa dad niya na tutulungan ka namin kasi ito ‘yung isa sa dreams ng dad niya sa kanya, na makatapos ng college because he’s so smart and alam mo rin ‘yung mga tao na masarap tulungan kasi masipag.” (ABS-CBN News)
