After more than three decades of working in the show business (she started in 1983), Divine Diva Zsa Zsa Padilla is happy about her place in the industry and the kind of respect and recognition that she gets from her colleagues. She has proven to herself that she’s not just a singer, but an actress as well. She feels that the longer she stays in showbiz, the more she gets better.
Zsa Zsa has admitted that she has become a veteran-of-sorts when it comes to love and relationship. “For a relationship to grow, there must be passion, love, and nurturing,” related the Kapamilya singer-actress and mainstay of ASAP Natin ‘To from a previous interview with this writer. “Because of what I’ve experienced in the past, I’ve learned to nurture more my present relationship.” By the looks of it, she’s happy with her present partner (Architect Conrad Onglao).
She said too much passion can also be dangerous in a relationship. There has to be balanced to achieve harmony. “With an overdose of passion, you cannot distinguish anymore what’s right and what’s wrong,” she rationalized. “You don’t have to follow your heart’s dictates all the time. I’ve been there. I’ve been hurt. And I’ve hurt some people in the process. It taught me a lot. Eventually, when the passion fades, you need to have something to hold on to, the love has to be stronger. In my case, my children are there. They keep me going.”
Zsa Zsa is hoping that one day, she’ll be able to tie the knot with her present partner. “I’m just waiting for the right time. It might come, it will come,” said Zsa Zsa, now in her mid-50s, and still looking more gorgeous than ever.
Her children are giving her much joy and contentment. The proud mom has three beautiful and talented daughters – Karylle, Nicole, and Zia. When at home, she can be so simple and plain, but when she’s in front of the spotlight performing, she can be totally glamorous. Since she’s not getting any younger, she makes it a priority to take care of her health, even more, eat healthier food, and always find time to come home to the place where she feels most peaceful and relaxed at Casa Esperanza in Lucban, Quezon.
She disclosed that like everyone else there are days when she feels very depressed over nothing. “But I’ve realized that happiness is what you make it,” she said. “If I decide to be happy today, it’s my doing. As much as possible I don’t allow negative thoughts to put me down.”
