READ: Mariz Umali pens sweet message as she bids goodbye to 'Balitanghali Weekend'
Award-winning Kapuso journalist Mariz Umali has officially bid goodbye to her weekend stint on Balitanghali Weekend yesterday, August 4.
On her Instagram, the journalist penned a sweet message to her co-anchors and crew who had been with her for almost nine years.
“Magkahalong emosyon ang nararamdaman ko ngayon sa pag-alis ko sa Balitanghali Weekend,” she captioned.
“Malungkot dahil maiiwan ko na ang itinuring kong tahanan sa loob ng siyam na taon.
“Hindi naging mahirap ang halos isang dekadang pagtatrabaho ng Sabado't Linggo dahil kayo ang kasama ko.”
And as they say, when one door closes another door opens.
Mariz looked at the brighter side of things and mentioned one thing that she's looking forward to the most--having a proper weekend and spending time with her family.
“Sa kabilang banda, masaya rin dahil sa kauna-unahang pagkakataon, pagkatapos ng labingwalong taon ay magkakaroon na ako ng weekend.
“Mas mapaglalaanan ko na ng panahon si @raffytima at aking pamilya at sa awa at biyaya ng Diyos, nawa'y makabuo na rin ng sariling pamilya. Maraming salamat.”
