Shaina on the success of her show

MANILA, Philippines - Shaina Magdayao (photo) is overwhelmed with the success of her ABS-CBN show, Kung Ako’y Iiwan Mo.

Shaina believes that a big factor of the show’s huge following is its realistic theme that viewers find relatable, especially women who have experienced the pain of betrayal and infidelity.

“As women, we all love, and we’re willing to give everything for the people we love. We sacrifice, we trust and we forgive,” explains Shaina. “But like Sarah, when enough is enough, we stand up and value ourselves.”

When asked if she finds herself in a situation like Sarah’s and she has to choose between Rino (Ron Morales) who loves her so much but took advantage of her illness and her husband Paul (Jake Cuenca) who, on the other hand, had an affair with his ex-girlfriend while he was abroad, Shaina replies, “None of them. Both Rino and Paul hurt Sarah too much in different ways and levels.”

Now that Sarah and Paul have crossed paths once again, will they give themselves a second chance at love?

Kung Ako’y Iiwan Mo airs after Angelito: Ang Bagong Yugto. For more updates, log on to www.abs-cbn.com or follow @abscbndotcom on Twitter.
