JENNICA GARCIA was last seen playing Jackie Rice’s sister in “Kasalanan Bang Ibigin Ka”. They’re now reunited in another afternoon soap, “Bukod Kang Pinagpala”. “This time, di na kami magkapatid,” she says. “Sa akin pinaampon ni Jackie ang anak niya sa pagkadalaga kay Mark Anthony Fernandez. Akong nagpalaki dito kasi namatay ang sarili kong anak. She’ll grow up to be Mona Louise Rey. Then later, ako mismo, magkakagusto kay Mark. Weird nga kasi Kuya ko siya noon in ‘Kim Sam Soon’. Ngayon, pagnanasaan ko na.”
It’s her first mother role. How did she prepare for it? “I asked my mom (Jean Garcia). She told me to watch DVD’s about moms, pinakagusto ko yung ‘My Sister’s Keeper’ with Cameron Diaz as the mom. Iyak ako ng iyak. 23 na ako. I think I’m mature enough to play mother roles.”
