Following a year filled with milestones for Kapamilya stars Jessy Mendiola and Luis Manzano the celebrity power couple treated their media friends to an intimate thanksgiving get-together recently.
Over a relaxed kwentuhan, they opened up about what they’re grateful for, what’s next on their radar, and the exciting things they’re looking forward to in the year ahead.
Luis Manzano spoke about the concept of “redirection” being protection from something you’re not meant to be. Asked whether he wanted to enter politics again, Luis shared, “Honestly, hindi ko na naiisip. After everything na we went through, everything that’s going on… para sa akin, I found my niche once again.”
He added, “Right after the campaign, the election. For a while, I was lost. Pero after, everything fell into place right away. Ayoko na sayangin din ’yun kasi not everyone is given a second chance na manumbalik sa industriya.”
“As of now, my main focus is balik sa pagho-host and taking care of the family. But marami pa rin akong itutulong din naman sa Batangas,” Luis shared, describing his current focus and direction.
For Jessy, gratitude is in full swing—especially after her much-anticipated on-screen comeback through Sins of the Father. And while the wins keep coming, she says there’s still so much to be thankful for: “I can confidently say na nahanap na namin [Luis] yung tamang pattern para sa aming dalawa, sa pamilya namin, and individually.”
She also shared: “I’m grateful to ABS-CBN also, akalain niyo nakabalik pa ako, ’di ba? After 6 long years, taray, aakting ulit ang Jessy Mendiola. Napatunayan ko rin sa sarili ko—nakapagtapos ako ng isang show.”
As the holiday season draws near, Jessy Mendiola shared her heartfelt wish for everyone:
“Peace for my family, my husband, for everyone else. But marami rin talagang nangyayari ngayon. Sana amidst all the chaos, marami pang hindi nakakabangon sa mga calamities. Sana maramdaman nila yung warmth… yung pagmamahal.”
When asked about her own wishes, Jessy Mendiola smiled and said, “For myself, wala na ako masyadong hilingin pa, nagpapasalamat nalang din ako… talagang masaya po ako.”
Looking ahead, Luis Manzano teases what 2026 has in store for him: “Good situation ang mangyayari next year dahil may babalik akong daily game show, nandiyan pa rin ang Rainbow Rumble, at meron akong isa pang gameshow na gusto pang gawin. Yung next year, ang tinatry gawin, two to three shows.”
As they wrap up 2025, both Jessy and Luis reflect on how far they’ve come—grateful for the lessons, the second chances, and the people who have stood by them. From finding their rhythm as a couple and as a family to embracing new opportunities, the couple reminds us that life’s redirections are often blessings in disguise.
With hearts full of gratitude and a focus on keeping meaningful relationships strong, they will step into 2026 ready to embrace whatever comes next—together.
