Jessy Mendiola’s eyes sparkled at the mention of giving their firstborn Isabella Rose a sibling.
But just like what her husband Luis Manzano said in a previous interview, it’s not going to happen this year.
At the Watsons Health Expo 2024 held at SM Megatrade Hall on February 3, 2024, Jessy told the press, “Sana. Gusto ko nga po lima. Sana kaya ko sunud-sunod.”
In the meantime, she wants to focus on her showbiz comeback, and explore the opportunities coming her way.
She continued, “Pero siyempre po, may mga seasons tayo in life. So I’m prioritizing this season right now na ang daming blessings.
“So kailangan natin bigyan ng time din.”
The 31-year-old mom was consistent about her baby plans.
During the Truth or Lie game for the segment of Health Fusion’s Beauty Bunny, the brand she is endorsing, the polygraph test affirmed her desire to have a second baby.
She said, “Sana. Sana talaga. I really want to have as much kids as I can. As in gusto ko ng maraming anak.”
But you know, andami din kailangan gawin ngayon, so maybe soon, but not right now. Not very soon.”
NICKNAMES FOR BABY ROSIE AND HER SOON-TO-BE SIBLING
Jessy prefers calling her daughter “Rosie,” while Luis fondly calls her “Peanut.”
The actress revealed a “fun fact”: she was “nagpasimuno ng Peanut.”
She recalled, “Kasi when we first saw Rosie inside my tummy sa ultrasound, naka-shape siya as peanut.
