Former Actress Deborah Sun revealed the people who helped her amid her challenges in the past seven years.
Deborah, the sister of Philip Salvador, lost her fame because of her vices and was even put under the custody of the authorities because of it.
In an interview with Snooky Serna, the 64-year-old actress admitted that she only depended on the help she was receiving from her former colleagues in showbusiness.
She didn’t hesitate to name some of them, including Ara Mina, who had given her shelter for the past seven years.
According to her, she was living rent-free at Ara’s condominium unit in Cubao, and she’s still staying there while waiting for projects.
“Talagang siya mismo nag-offer sa akin niyan… Kung tututusin, hindi ko naging barkada, hindi ko kaedad si Ara Mina.” said Deborah. “Pero nung malaman niya ang sitwasyon ng buhay ko, na kami mag-iina, ano siya, tinulungan niya kami. Up to now, nakatira ako sa isang unit niya diyan sa Cubao for seven years.”
“Ara Mina, thank you so much. For seven years, wala akong binabayaran talaga sa upa… big help. Sobra, lalo wala akong trabaho.” she added.
Aside from Ara, Aiko Melendez was also sending groceries and medicines to her.
Despite the unfortunate events that happened in her life, Deborah was still thankful because some people were still helping her.
“Inaano ko lagi na, sabi ko, ‘Lord, naku kung di sa Iyo, wala na, kawawa na buhay namin mag-iina. Kumbaga, Ikaw lagi nandiyan. Ikaw ang bumubulong sa mga puso ng mga tao ang tumutulong sa amin, sa aming mag-iina.’” she stated.
Snooky then asked the showbiz industry to give another chance for Deborah to prove herself.
