MANILA, Philippines — “Oh my gosh, 17 pa lang!” actress Kylie Padilla exclaimed when asked by Philstar.com at what age did she originally plan to get pregnant.
“Gusto ko kasi kasabay ko ‘yung bata lumaki e. ‘Yung ‘pag teenager na s’ya, (para lang kaming magkapatid)…Lumabas ‘yung gusto kong maging nanay n’ung 17 pa lang ako,” she explained in an interview following her announcement as new endorser of personal care store chain Watsons on Thursday.
The 24-year-old, who is five months pregnant with her first born with fiancé, actor Aljur Abrenica, revealed that at first, she was shocked when she found out that she has been expecting.
“But I wasn’t shocked when I saw the test. I kind of knew na kasi I was feeling different. So sabi ko, ‘Eto na ‘yun, pregnant.’ Then after n’un, there was a bit of fear. It was, as we all know, unplanned, at that time, so, I didn’t know how to handle it pa. I was so vulnerable. Pero n’ung natanggap ko na, I was happy na,” said Kylie.
