Marking another chapter as a Kapamilya, award-winning actor Richard Gutierrez expressed his gratitude to all his supporters, especially to his mom and talent manager, Annabelle Rama.

During his contract signing with ABS-CBN on Oct. 26, Richard mentioned how his mom supported him from the start of his career.

"You know my mom has been there since the beginning of my career, and right now she entrusted me with Star Magic. My mom is there to help me guide and support," Richard said.

The actor also shared the story of how Annabelle has been a great help to them while shooting their recently ended series "The Iron Heart" in Cebu for eight months.

"My mom was a big help for us while filming in Cebu City. We shot in Cebu for eight months, so ang laking tulong na binigay sa amin ng Rama clan sa Cebu, kaya naipakita namin yung ganda ng Cebu sa Iron Heart. She's there for me as a support system and a guiding factor to everyone," he added.

With his renewal of contract and the success of his series, Richard shared that he will be taking a short break and prepare himself on working on a upcoming teleserye on the first quarter of 2024.

"I am ready to work after a few weeks. We have a couple of things lined up. For the teleserye, I think first quarter of next year. I think that’s enough time for preparation, for planning, kasi ang hirap tapatan ng ‘The Iron Heart," he said.
