Rica Peralejo on how she endured three miscarriages: 'Hindi mo pwedeng i-deny sa sarili mo na nahihirapan ka'
Miscarriages are hard and painful and are talked about in hushed whispers, if at all.
So hearing Rica Peralejo turn vulnerable as she spoke openly about enduring three miscarriages in the latest episode of "Surprise Guest with Pia Arcangel," was as moving as it could get.
"I had my first born and then I miscarried twice. Then I had my second born, and then I miscarried again," Rica began.
According to the celebrity vlogger, each experience is a different thing altogether. "Magkakaibang bagay [sila]. Napakahirap," she admitted.
"Every time is a new struggle," she added.
What helped her apart from having a good and supportive husband who prayed with and for her, Rica said, was acknowledging the fact that she's going through a difficult time.
"Hindi mo pwedeng i-deny sa sarili mo na nahihirapan ka at masakit siya kasi the more you deny, the harder it is to actually heal, kasi kapag hindi mo na-address yung sugat, hindi ka rin talaga maghihilom," she shared wisdom.
In June, Rica revealed she went through a third miscarriage.
In the pod, Rica spoke about her current life as a vlogger, meeting her husband, having children, and her career as a child actress-turned sexy star.
She's married to Pastor Joseph Bonifacio and have two children, Philip and Manu. — LA, GMA Integrated News
