Alessandra de Rossi on people judging unmarried women: 'Takot kayo mag-isa'


Alessandra de Rossi has something to say about people who have a negative view of unmarried women.

In an interview on "Updated With Nelson Canlas," the actress said, "Well, kung negative 'yung tingin nila sa unmarried, parang, takot kayo mag-isa."

"Sorry," she added. "I mean, kung 'yun 'yung dating sa inyo, pero kaming unmarried, masaya naman kami."

Alessandra said that she won't claim that her life is happier without a husband and kids.

"I'm sure, napaka-fulfilling na trabaho na maging ina, diba? Pero, para pilitin mangyari 'yun or...or ma-feel na hindi ako parang binigyan ng gift," she said. "Diba? Na gano'n?"

"It's a blessing from the Lord, talaga. Gano'n. Nakalagay naman 'yan, children are a gift from God, diba? Pero parang, ang lungkot naman kung feeling mo dahil hindi ka nabigyan or hindi ka gano'n, eh, malungkot ang buhay mo. Parang uy teka lang ha," she added.

The actress also said that while she believes love makes the world go round, she doesn't believe it's the solution to everything.

"At saka, parang, hindi lang ang buhay ay pagkakaroon ng relasyon, pagpapakasal, pagkakaroon ng anak, parang ang daming ibang klaseng life, like, nagtrabaho, nagtravel... binuhos niya 'yung life niya sa isang community, she changed the world in her own little way, special way, parang may masasabing, napaka-unfulfilling naman ng life niya, diba?"

Alessandra stars in the upcoming film "Firefly," the official entry of GMA Public Affairs and GMA Pictures to the Metro Manila Film Festival 2023.

Directed by Zig Dulay, "Firefly" is a coming-of-age road trip drama about a young boy who searches for the mythical island described in his mother's bedtime stories.

It also stars Dingdong Dantes, Miguel Tanfelix, Ysabel Ortega, and Yayo Aguila, among others. —JCB, GMA Integrated News
