Not long ago, GMA reported that Marian Rivera received an invitation to participate in a Korean film project. This work is said to be Sad Tropics with the participation of handsome man Kim Seon Ho . In a conversation published by Philstar on June 12, Marian shared that she had rejected the offer from the Korean producer but did not mention the name of the project. The actress admitted that she had no other choice because of her 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. If she accepted the role, the beauty would have to go to Korea to film for several months, which would leave her with no time to take care of her small family.

Marian Rivera said that her top priority right now is her family. The mother of two confided: “Sometimes you have to sacrifice some things for the bigger priorities in your life. If you put your career first, you can choose to leave. But when you are a mother, can you do that? Deep down, I don’t allow myself to act on my own desires and affect the lives of my 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren.”

After a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, the 38-year-old star returned to the screen with the sitcom Jose and Maria’s Bonggang Villa co-starring with her husband Dingdong Dantes. This is the couple’s reunion project after many years, so fans can’t help but look forward to it. The actress calls this a dream come true because she and her husband have long wanted to act in a sitcom together. Every day of filming, the actress is excited because she has more time to spend with her partner. She also expressed her happiness that her 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren can watch their parents act in the same work.

Also in the conversation, Marian Rivera shared openly about her daily life. The beauty of the movie My Lady Boss said that when she has no schedule, she usually starts her day at 5:30 am to get ready for her 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. Around 6 am, the actress will wake up her eldest daughter Zia, make breakfast and take her to school. When she returns home, the beauty prepares for her son Sixto’s martial arts and soccer lessons. The mother of two often ends the day by participating in extracurricular activities with Zia or helping her with her homework. Along with that, she and her husband Dingdong Dantes agree not to accept schedules on Sundays so that the whole family can enjoy the weekend together.

Marian Rivera is helped by her husband in taking care of the 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren and he also actively organizes date nights for the couple. “Sometimes being a mother makes you forget to take time for yourself. So Dingdong is there to remind me: we need to take time for each other, let’s go on a date,” the star of One True Love said.

In addition to taking care of her small family, Marian Rivera also runs her own business . She owns a flower shop and a home goods store. The mother of two said that she can do many roles well because she knows her priorities. “I am always asked: how do you balance work, your own career with taking care of your 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren? I always answer that you have to know what your priorities are in life. Because if you know what your top priorities are, it will be easier for you to arrange different tasks and manage your time well,” the 38-year-old star shared. Dingdong Dantes’ wife continued: “My top priority is my family. So before doing anything else, I will take good care of my 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren first.”
