Actress Kim Chiu recently demonstrated her resilience when discussing the possibility of encountering her ex-boyfriend with his new girlfriend during an emotional segment on ‘It’s Showtime.’
This revealing moment took place last Monday, leaving viewers touched by her sincerity.
The topic came up when co-host Jackie Gonzaga asked Kim what she would do if she saw her ex-boyfriend with his new partner in a hallway. The question brought laughter from the other hosts, but Kim’s response was serious and heartfelt.
Kim began, “Hindi, dapat ano ka lang, kasi ganu’n naman ang buhay, eh. Hindi naman binibigay ni God ‘yung mga hardest battle Niya to be strong…” However, Vice Ganda interrupted, asking for a more straightforward answer.
Holding back tears, Kim responded, “Haharap, siyempre, alangan…,” before breaking down and asking for a tissue.
She elaborated, “Akina tissue! Hindi, dapat ganu’n talaga. Hindi ka dapat tumatalikod sa mga bagay na magpapakakas sa ‘yo.”
Her emotional revelation led to a supportive hug from Jacky, as Kim continued to cry. Although she did not mention her ex-boyfriend by name, it is widely known that actor Xian Lim was her last known relationship.
