Heart Evangelista on having a baby: 'I'm not giving up, but I'm not pressuring myself'

When it comes to having a baby, Heart Evangelista is just leaving it all up to destiny.

On Nelson Canlas’ “24 Oras” report on Saturday, the Kapuso actress and fashionista said she is not trying to get pregnant as of the moment.

“I’m not (trying) kasi kung pipilitin mo 'yung hindi para sa’yo, para saan pa? But kung para sa’yo e di para sa’yo. I’m not giving up, but I’m not pressuring myself,” she said.

Heart also admitted feeling pressured to have a child before, but now, she just chooses to be happy.

“I must say, before, yes,” she said. “It wasn’t just dahil artista ka. Of course, subconscious 'yung mga makikita mong comments pero dahil lahat, kahit yung kakilala mo sa buhay mo, they expect that.”

“For me, at this point, ‘di siya binibigay sa’kin so bakit ako magmumukmok, di ba? Bakit ako mag-se-celebrate din? I will just live my life and I’m happy," she added.

Late last year, Heart revealed she underwent in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment, adding that she has a “baby boy and a baby girl waiting for me.” She suffered a miscarriage in 2018.

Heart and Chiz will be celebrating their eighth wedding anniversary on February 15. —Franchesca Viernes/JCB, GMA Integrated News
