Pokwang opens up on struggles as a single mom
Pokwang is among the single moms out there who can attest that being one is not easy.
On Instagram, Pokwang opened up on the difficulties she continues to face as a single mom along with a video of her daughter, Malia, on her way to school.
"Ang hirap maging single mom lalo na sa panahon ngayon, ako lahat!" she wrote. "[G]astusin, oras sa bata, emosyon, ako lahat!"
She also called on those who blamed her for the failed relationship.
"[T]apos nag failed ang relasyon ako pa rin ang nasisisi? [B]itter ka! [M]ove on ka na!" Pokwang said.
"[M]aging nanay ka muna bago mo i-invalidate ang nararamdaman ng isang kagaya ko 'wag kang makasawsaw lang! [H]indi mo alam ang iyak ko sa gabi kapag nag-iisa nalang ako, hindi mo naririnig mga dasal ko dahil hindi ka Di[y]os," she said.
Pokwang did not identify who the message was for.
Malia, 5, is the comedienne's daughter with ex-partner, Lee O'Brian.
In June, Pokwang filed a deportation case against Lee, saying, "Kailangan nating mabigyan ng leksyon 'yung mga taong nang-aabuso sa batas natin, sa karapatan ng bawat babae, bawat nanay."
