After four years, Lorna feels very blessed to be back in GMA-7. ”I’m very happy to be back. I am happy kasi GMA is my home na rin, home naman nating lahat ito.”
During the contract signing, Atty. Gozon expressed his gladness on Lorna working again as a Kapuso. “Isa siya sa pinakamagagaling na artistang kilala natin. Very welcome siya sa GMA.”
Mr. Duavit, on the other hand, says that Lorna is extremely talented and very professional. “At tayo ay natutuwa na maski nawala siya sa atin for a while ay bumalik na siya. We are very excited and very happy na mayroon nang nakahanay na programa para sa kanya.”
Rasonable says that despite the decision of top management to shelve the primetime series “Haram”, a new and even better project is already in the works for Lorna and the rest of the cast. “Yung ipapalit na project is with the same cast and even better. Heavy drama ito. We cannot see anybody to play the role except Ms. Lorna. She is a big boost in GMA’s stable of stars. ”
Among the Kapuso stars, Lorna wishes to work with Dingdong Dantes, Marian Rivera, Richard Gutierrez, Ogie Alcasid, Regine Velasquez and Mark Anthony Fernandez. (FREEMAN)
