Live na nag-guest si Heart Evangelista sa H.O.T. TV ng GMA-7 kaninang hapon, March 24, upang sagutin ang mga katanungan hinggil sa isyu sa pagitan nila ng kanyang mga magulang na sina Cecilia at Rey Ongpauco bunga ng pagpapatawag ng mga ito ng presscon upang isapubliko ang pagtutol ng mga ito sa kasintahan niyang si Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero.
Unang tinanong ng H.O.T. TV host na si Raymond Gutierrez kung bakit nagdesisyon na sa wakas si Heart na magsalita tungkol sa eskandalo.
“Siguro dahil masyadong madami nang nasasaktan, aside from me siguro.
"Nahihiya na rin ako sa ibang mga taong nadadamay kaya I decided to speak today,” ang umpisang pahayag ni Heart.
Matapos nito ay ipinalabas ang videos ng interviews kay Mrs. Ongpauco, at kitang-kita sa kamera na panay ang iling at iyak ni Heart habang pinapanood ang interview sa kanyang ina.
Paano nakakaapekto sa kanila ni Senator Chiz ang kontrobersiya?
Sagot ni Heart, “I think si Chiz, siyempre nai-stress siya, it’s election pero mas concerned siya sa akin kasi pamilya ko yung nasa TV ngayon, so…
“Hindi naman kami masyadong nagpapadala siyempre, kailangang matatag pero mahirap lang talaga para sa akin.”
Sa Twitter account ni Heart ay nag-post ang aktres ng mensaheng ito: “Today, tomorrow and the next will bring me heartaches. Why try to take away my happiness.”
Sa tingin ba niya ay pilit na inaalis ng kanyang mga magulang ang kanyang kaligayahan?
“Sa tingin ko, dahil magulang ko sila, gusto nilang mapunta ako sa mabuti at gusto nilang maging masaya ako.
“Sa umpisa okay lang po iyon dahil siyempre hinahanap mo pa yung sarili mo, kung sino ka talaga sa mundong ito.
“You grow and you learn but there comes a time when you have to choose what makes you happy,” umiiyak nang sabi ni Heart.
“So medyo mahirap, actually mahirap na nandito ako ngayon dahil mahal na mahal ko sila, mahal na mahal ko yung magulang ko at ginagawa ko ang lahat-lahat.
“Pero sana, hayaan na lang nila akong maging masaya, yung walang kokontra at walang pipigil kung anong nagpapatawa sa akin.
"Now just turn me ask again."
WHAT STARTED IT ALL? May incident ever triggered suddenly summon presscon for her parents?
"No," replied Heart.
"During the start no problem, those they first met ... in fact I have no problem yung dad, we did well, we even go to the beach house said.
"We really went well, it's just very recently suddenly varied.
"I know my mom loves me and I went through all her being there for me.
"But maybe he was not ready to let me go.
"If a person is sensitive to him, I am his son yun for me.
"So that may be expressed about him hurting me because I love him.
"So hopefully after this just because I do not turn also makes it wrong ... no.
"If I have done wrong, I'm sorry, let me learn just cheating on my own."
Denies allegations AGAINST Chiz. was true that Senator Chiz rude to his parents? That does not greet her parents when they visited the condo or on the set of Forever the show's Heart?
Heart says, "Not true.
"Senator him, if other people who respect him, those lesser people that he therein for them, how much more those parents who love him?"
Is there even a relatively incident did not deserve the actions of Senator Chiz in front of his parents?
"No, not really.
"If there incident maybe, just maybe those I have difficulty me because those other difficulties, not unlike those done to them, not namamansin, Nung one wants to come but I just.
"Naiipit ako pero wala talagang incident na… wala,” diin niya.
Meron daw drinking problem si Senator Chiz; lagi raw itong lasing?
“That is a lie!” mabilis niyang tanggi.
“At lahat ng… ayokong sabihin it’s a lie kasi ayokong insultuhin sila.
"Ang hirap talaga ng posisyon ko ngayon pero kung anuman ang nasasabi tungkol sa amin at sa kanya, hindi totoo yun.
“Ang saya-saya namin, e... ang saya-saya ko ngayon. Hindi ko maintindihan,” ang patuloy pa ring humahagulhol na sinabi ni Heart.
“Kung gusto n'yong magkahiwalay kami, hayaan n'yo na lang akong makapagdesisyon nun, please!”
Isa pa raw sa mga dahilan kung bakit ayaw ng mga magulang ni Heart kay Senator Chiz ay dahil wala pa itong church annulment.
May plano na ba silang magpakasal?
“Tulad ng sinabi ng mommy ko, wala nga siyang church annulment, pero lahat naman siguro ng papasukin mong relasyon, gusto mo iyon ang ending.
"Darating din yun, alam naman namin yun.
“Bakit pa kailangang gamitin yun laban sa amin?”
Sa gitna ng eskandalo, umalis si Heart sa kanilang tinitirhang condo.
Paliwanag niya, “Nahihirapan ako. Bahay ko yun, e. Wala akong gamit pero paano ako uuwi sa ganun?”
Sa palagay ba niya ay overprotective ang mga magulang niya sa kanya ng walang dahilan?
“May reason sila dahil mahal nila ako, at ako lang siguro ang makakaintindi noon.
"Mahal na mahal nila ako at mahal na mahal ko din sila.
“Tama na!”
REASONS BEHIND ALLEGATIONS. Sa sinabi ng mga magulang niya na "bastos" si Senator Chiz at "laging naglalasing," sinabi ni Heart na iyon ay kasinungalingan. Bakit kaya ito nasabi ng kanyang mga magulang?
“Because gusto nila kaming paghiwalayin," sagot niya.
"Lahat naman siguro ng ginagawa nila ngayon dahil para maghiwalay na kami.
“Iyon lang siguro yung nakikita kong dahilan. Wala na akong ibang nakikitang dahilan,” pag-amin niya.
Sinabi rin ng ina niya na mahilig ni Heart sa “you-and-me-against-the-world” syndrome na nangyari rin daw sa kanyang mga nakaraang relasyon.
“It’s not true!" bulalas ng aktres.
"Sino bang gustong malayo sa iyo yung taong mahal mo? Ibinibigay ko sa kanila lahat ng gusto nila para maging masaya sila.
“Madaming mabubuting tao… I’ve lost a lot of great people in my life because I chose them [her parents].
“Who would want a 'you and me against the world?'
“Ang saya-saya kong tao, gusto ko lahat masaya.
“Sino naman ang may gusto nun?” dagdag niya.
Ano ang reaksiyon ng kanyang mga kamag-anak at family members sa sitwasyon?
“Nahihirapan sila.
"Tulad ng sinabi ko kanina, kapag lumalabas ito, kami lang siguro ang makakaintindi at masasaktan din para sa mommy ko at sa daddy ko, so halu-halo ang nararamdaman namin ngayon dahil mahal namin sila.
“Paano kami… magagalit ka, masasaktan ka, and at the end of the day, maaawa ka din dahil mahal lang nila ako.
"Ako lang ang makakaintindi nun.”
Ayon sa mga magulang ni Heart ay hindi raw sila nakikialam sa lovelife niya.
Sagot dito ni Heart, “Everytime a relationship would end, a big reason would be dahil nahihirapan akong ihati yung sarili ko sa mga taong nagmamahal sa akin at sa taong gusto kong ipagtanggol.
“Pero hinahayaan ko na lang, nagpaparaya na lang ako dahil pareho kong naman silang mahal.
"Para maging masaya na kung sinuman ang kasama ko nun at huwag na siyang mahirapan hahayaan ko na lang siyang umalis.
“Para maging masaya na lang yung magulang ko, dahil mahal mo sila... dapat ganun ang pamilya, di ba?”
Kapag in love daw ang isang tao ay bulag ito sa ilang mga bagay; may kapintasan ba si Senator Chiz na hindi nakikita ni Heart dahil nagmamahal siya?
“Hindi na siguro ako ganung mag-isip.
"Madaming beses na rin akong umiyak sa mga taong nawala sa akin. Marami na rin akong natutunan sa buhay.
"Hindi na rin ako bata para hindi makita ang mga bagay na hindi para sa akin.
“All they just have to do is to trust me, that I need to live my life.
“Kung sa tingin ko tama po ako, gagawin ko, kung magkamali ako, di magkamali pero sana nandun pa rin sila kahit mangyari yun.”
Sabi nga niya ay gusto silang paghiwalayin ng mga magulang niya; bakit hindi siya kinausap ng mga ito nang pribado? Sinubukan ba ng mga magulang niya na kausapin siya in private bago nagpatawag ang mga ito ng presscon?
“No. siguro baka… hindi ko alam kung bakit nila ginawa yun.”
MIRIAM'S SENTIMENT. Ipinarinig din kay Heart ang phone interview kay Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago. Kaibigan nina Heart at Senator Chiz si Senator Miriam at isa siya sa mga naging tulay upang magkalapit ang dalawa.
Ayon kay Senator Miriam, parang anak na babae na raw ang turing niya kay Heart.
“Because Heart, let’s say is my surrogate daughter if I would have a daughter, you know.
"So I thought I could have a mother-daughter relationship with her.
“I’m very, very disappointed, in fact depressed that things have turned out this way.
“I think Heart is in a state of rebellion against her parents.
“Let’s just say that in the end I’m glad I never had a daughter.
“Ang hirap pala magkaanak ng babae.
“The thing is I am close not only to Heart but also to her family, so I don’t want to take sides.
“This is a very highly emotionally-charged situation but it would impact not only the political fortune of Chiz but even the marketability or the market appeal of Heart.
“Amuin mo na lang yung mga magulang para wala ng problema. Why can’t he do that? That is our culture. May kasabihan tayo, ligawan mo ang magulang muna.
“Plus I know for a fact that the father is now seventy years old and is beset with many middle-age diseases.
