MANILA, Philippines — “We’re really in a good place.”

Heart Evangelista recently reflected on her nine-year marriage with Senate President Chiz Escudero, as she stated she has nothing more to ask for at this point in her life and career.

The 39-year-old Kapuso star and style maven spoke to select press, including The STAR, after her contract renewal with her long-time home network GMA.

“Of course, meron talaga… nagka-episode siya but yes (we’re past that),” she also admitted to a challenging period in their relationship that worried her fans, but no longer went into detail.

“Kaya ‘wag na tayo humingi ng kahit ano kay Lord, okay na ‘to.”

She believes that having mutual support and making the effort to understand each other’s worlds are important for a couple to have a stronger relationship.

“Siya pumupunta sa mundo ko, tapos sige ako pumupunta sa mundo niya,” she noted.

Heart Evangelista on heading the Senate Spouses Foundation, Inc. (SSFI): Daunting but fulfilling.

“It is,” she said when asked if it was their “secret to a stronger marriage.” “And aside from that, you really have to go through the toughest times to really become stronger. I think we had our fair share so we’re really in a good, good place,” she continued.

Heart also shared a sweet message for her husband. “I will stand by you with whatever you choose to do, and tatanda ako kasama mo. Yun lang talaga yun. I’m so thankful for the time I have with my family and husband so sana ibigay na ni Lord.”

Meanwhile, Heart’s new role as head of the Senate Spouses foundation has thrust her into the political spotlight.

With husband, Senate President Chiz Escudero.

“It was daunting at the beginning because it’s not something that I asked for. It landed on my lap literally. But I enjoy it because politics is never really for me, I never really thought that I would… But it’s not really politics, it’s an independent entity kumbaga and it’s for the love,” she told The STAR. 

“So why will it be daunting if you have so much in your heart to give and I enjoy it. It’s really fulfilling that finally, I can be an instrument. Again all of this (pointing to what she was wearing)… is accessorizing your soul. What is my soul ‘di ba at the end of the day, at the end of each life, so at least I’m doing more.”

Hinting at her plans to enhance the organization’s activities, she said, “Madami (plans). Nagulat nga sila kasi usually Ber months talaga active ang Senate Spouses but we have a calendar full (of activities), the whole year. Of course, it’s like bringing the past things that I’ve done to the present, revisiting the structures that they have already created.

“It’s also tapping different companies, that we can do modern things. Hopefully, a kabuhayan showcase. There’s a lot. I don’t know how long I have but I’m rushing to do as much as I can with the given time.”

Asked about her first project, she said, “Ayoko kasi magsalita, gusto ko ng gawin.”

According to her talent management, Sparkle GMA Artist Center, Heart recently donated P1.5 million from the proceeds of selling a designer bag from her vintage collection to help jumpstart the foundation’s operations.

Heart said she has zero plans of joining politics in the future.

“I think I’m OK. I understand for some people because they need in a sense a platform, in a way, that power, the pull, to make a bigger impact. I think whatever stage I have now, I think that’s all I need to make a difference. I don’t think I’d be somebody who would join politics. Not for me. Not my calling.”
