Camille Prats, Katrina Halili share how losing a loved one affected their perspective on life
Camille Prats and Katrina Halili opened up about how the experience of losing a loved one changed their approach in everyday life. On Tuesday's "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda," the Kapuso stars placed deeper emphasis on meaningful relationships and living in the present. "Ngayon, parang mas, ako, for me, I would rather have meaningful connections rather than 'yung mga mabababaw lang," Camille said. She also emphasized that this shift extends even to her professional interactions. "Whenever I talked to anyone or nagkakaroon ako ng chance na magkaroon ng malalim na usapan with someone, parang I would want to connect with that person in a deeper way rather than just small talks na balewala lang," she said. Similarly, Katrina underscored the unpredictability of life. "Hindi natin alam kung ano 'yung puwedeng mangyari, kausap mo lang tapos mamaya hindi na, 'di ba? So parang ako, enjoy mo na lang 'yung every—kung sino 'yung gusto mong makasama, 'di ba?" she said. "Enjoy mo 'yung mga moment na—kunwari, 'yung family mo, 'yung anak mo, 'yung trabaho mo, enjoy mo lahat. Kasi hindi natin alam." Both Camille and Katrina experienced losing their partners. Camille's first husband, Anthony Linsangan, died in 2011 due to nasopharyngeal carcinoma. In 2017, Camille got married again to VJ Yambao. Meanwhile, Katrina's boyfriend, Jeremy Guiab, passed away in January 2024. Camille and Katrina currently star with Shayne Sava in "Mommy Dearest," which just got extended. It airs weekdays at 3:20 p.m. on GMA Afternoon Prime. —Carby Rose Basina/MGP, GMA Integrated News
