Dimples said she delayed announcing the pregnancy until the baby started showing. “Hindi ko sinabi kaagad, nagdasal ako ng nagdasal na sana kumapit, kaya nung nagka-heartbeat ako, saka ko lang pinost. Para at least alam ko na may heartbeat na, buong buo na. Ang weird kasi kahit fourth month ko pero siguro dahil I’m a big girl also it doesn’t really show right away. Sabi ko sa asawa ko, ‘I need to wear na ata mga maternity dresses so people will believe I’m really pregnant!’ Kasi now I’m in that awkward stage, when the baby bump is already there but it just looks like puson to you (laughs),” she explained.
Even while she is expecting, the 29-year-old host said she will continue working for as long as she can. “Ako rin kasi very careful as a mom. I’m very protective. Ngayon masagi nga lang ako sa mall, super kawawa yung makakasagi sa akin. Eh ang laki kong babae (laughs). Parang nag hirap hirap kasi magbuntis ngayon eh. Alam mo ba tuwing magpapahinga ako saka ako nahihirapan. Totoo! Kasi hindi ako sanay. My body is so used to moving and working and thinking and hosting and doing a lot of things. Parang pag nagpapahinga ako that’s when I feel weak. So now even at home I walk around and do a lot of things. It’s so fun kasi I still get to do my shows even while I’m pregnant,” she added.
When it comes to her family, Dimples said she is very thankful her husband has always been supportive of her career. “You know Boyet is not very showbiz, he’s very quiet. Behind the scenes talaga but he never failed naman to get that balance between being in the scene and yet not really taking so much. He really supports me. Some of my friends, yung problema naman sa mga asawa nila, they’re very low-key that they don’t also attend the events of their wives. My husband is always there but he’s just very, very quiet and he’s friends with everybody so I don’t really have problems na kailangang asikasuhin siya or something,” she explained.
The Diana Stalder endorser admitted that nothing is perfect, but she and her husband always try to make things work. “We’ve been married 11 years. It’s a lot of work. You know my husband and I they think everything is happy happy, but we’ve been through a lot of things just like any normal marriage. Thankfully naman, even if we say really harsh things to each other, which is normal I think ah, and we would fight over the simplest things, for some reason we keep it together. Ayoko rin naman kasi ng conflict, ayoko ng kaaway. Even in showbiz, hangga’t maaari, if it’s not something good I don’t want to be talked about. Because I think as celebrities you have the responsibility to be good to the readers and the viewers and really give them something to be inspired about. I think over the years I think na-attain ko naman yun thankfully,” she shared.
