Cindy Kurleto tells why she did not show her sexy photos to her daughters

By Maine Aquino

Cindy Kurleto left her glamorous and eventful life as a model, host, and actress to pursue a quiet life with her family.

In her short but remarkable showbiz career in the early 2000s, she was considered one of the sexiest women in the world in a men's magazine.

However, Cindy revealed in her Just In interview why she hasn't shown her sexy photos to her two daughters Noa and Lima.

“I have two girls. Have I shown them these pictures? No,” Cindy started as she recalled the time she was hailed as one of the sexiest women in the world.

She said that she had no problems with those pictures from the men's magazine even up to the present time. She was actually flattered that she was part of that "sexiest" list.

“Did I enjoy producing those pictures back in the day and was I flattered to receive those high ranks in the FHM sexiest in the world list? Of course.

“Of course I was flattered. I have no problem with the pictures. I look at them and they are still okay with me today.

Cindy disclosed that she thinks her eldest daughter, Noa, would feel embarrassed when she sees the photos of her mother.

“I think my eldest, she's 10, and I think she'd be embarrassed because she hasn't seen me being so intimate with the public, with strangers.”

Cindy continued, “At home, we're being intimate and cozy and whatnot. That's what she's used to. But having her mom out there is so vulnerable almost.”

The former Encantadia actress said that she has already told Noa about her career in the Philippines back in the day.

“I only told my eldest two years ago; what I used to do and that my job used to be in the public eye.”

She added that although she disclosed her life as a showbiz personality, she doesn't want her daughter to feel like she's being watched.

“I am proud. But I want her to grow up without having this feeling of having eyes over her shoulders even if that's just a feeling. Even if it's just imaginary.”

“I don't want her young mind to perceive that there is someone watching us or we are under a microscope.”
