LJ Moreno eyes showbiz comeback after 6 years in the US
After spending the past six years in the United States with her family, LJ Moreno said she is interested in returning to showbiz now that they have moved back to the Philippines.
On Thursday's "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda," LJ admitted that life abroad made her realize how much she missed acting and hosting.
"Gusto ko. Like, being in the States, sabi ko, parang sobrang napagod ako sa States. And the last year or so, parang sabi ko, na-miss ko nang mag-actor or mag-host, you know what I mean? Getting made up again, not being in a hoodie, no more kuskos-kubeta and all that," she said.
LJ also shared that coming home to the Philippines was something she had been praying for, even though she was happy to support her husband Jimmy Alapag in his NBA coaching career.
"It's been six years and matagal ko nang pinagpe-pray. Although I'm very happy with his career and all that stuff. But no place like home talaga, Tito Boy," she said.
Jimmy, who is now the NLEX Road Warriors' head coach after serving as player development coach for the Sacramento Kings, said returning to the Philippines felt like the right decision not only for his career but also for their family.
"To be honest, Tito Boy, it just felt like the right time. And not just for myself, for my career, but I think more importantly for our family. As you can see, 'yung asawa ko is extremely happy. And even for the kids, kasi medyo mabigat when you're traveling throughout the NBA season. Kasi minsan, 'yung road trips are five days, 10 days, even up to 14 days," he said.
"Solo parenting most of the NBA season," LJ added. "And no help dun, Tito Boy. Kasi dito, we have all the help. Iba talaga."
LJ and Jimmy got married in August 2010. They have four children: Ian, Keona, Calen Asher, and Cayson Amory. —Carby Rose Basina/MGP, GMA News
