Katrina Halili Says She Has Forgiven Herself After 2009 Scandal

Katrina Halili talked about moving on from a past scandal

Kapuso actress Katrina Halili said that she has forgiven herself after the scandal she went through in 2009.



Katrina rose to fame after she joined the Kapuso talent search StarStruck. She was known for her kontrabida roles in Kapuso teleseryes. Over the years, she was featured in various Kapuso shows and movies. She remained a Kapuso until now. Amid her success as one of the homegrown talents of GMA, a challenging time came to her.

Back in 2009, she was involved in a scandal with celebrity doctor Hayden Kho. Despite that dark past in her life and career, Katrina was able to bounce back.

In a recent interview, based on the article in Balita, Katrina Halili said that she erred against herself and no one else. “May kasalanan ako sa sarili ko, wala akong dapat i-sorry sa ibang tao. Parang sa sarili ko ako nagkaroon ng kasalanan, ‘di ba? Kung mayroon akong hihingan ng tawad, kay Lord,” the Kapuso actress said.

She said that she has forgiven herself and this is the reason why she can stand now. “Napatawad ko na [ang sarili ko]. Hindi naman ako makakatayo ngayon kung hindi ko napatawad ‘yong sarili ko,” Katrina said.

Despite what she went through, Katrina continues to receive support from her home network. Last year, she renewed her contract with GMA Network.

Katrina Halili expressed how grateful she was for the support she received from GMA despite her past scandal. “Thankful ako na kahit gano’n ‘yung nangyari, nagtiwala pa din kayo,” she said about her home network.

Katrina is currently part of the Kapuso series Mommy Dearest with Camille Prats and Shayne Sava. This series is directed by Ralfh Manuel Malabung and airs every Monday to Friday at 3:20 p.m. on GMA Afternoon Prime.
