Marian Rivera shared how they ensure their kids are healthy.

Kapuso Primetime royalties Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes are making sure their kids, Zia and Sixto, are healthy, especially with the pursuits they are partaking in.

In a report by Nelson Canlas on 24 Oras, the Kapuso Primetime Queen highlighted how important it is for her and Dingdong that their children eat healthy and right.

“Mahalaga rin siguro sa'min 'yung paano sila pakainin nang tama at sapat. Kailangan talaga may vitamins na kasama 'yan,” Marian said.

The My Guardian Alien star added, “'Nung bata kasi ako, sagana talaga ako sa masustansyang pagkain sa lola ko at itong si Dong din, 'nung bata siya, ganun din pala sila.”

It was mentioned in the report that Marian and Dingdong's eldest, Zia, enjoys dancing and swimming, while their youngest, Sixto, loves to play soccer.

Meanwhile, when asked how she manages to juggle all her responsibilities simultaneously, Marian answered, “Time management.”

She continued, “Hindi ko rin alam kung paano ko nakakaya pero sabi ko, siguro maganda siguro 'yung time management na alam mo 'yung oras mo. Like ngayon, after this event, dederecho ako sa school ng anak ko kasi may recital siya."
