Karel Marquez Facts
- She had been a video jock of the music video channel of ABS-CBN called Channel MYX.
- She has stated that she had thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the television drama romance series My Husband’s Lover (2013) that had the most uncommon theme for a regular soap opera in the Philippines but had still gone on to become a phenomenal success. She has loved how the program is not just concentrated on the tale of the lover but also deals with family and the ways to handle our everyday lives. She has been thankful that the theme of gay lovers was accepted by people of all genders in the Philippines, and has added that some bashing along with appreciation, was expected.
- She has stated that her role as Evelyn in My Husband’s Lover had been refreshing for her and had helped her to improve as an actress. Similar to her character in the show, in real life too she has cried at the drop of a hat. She has easily been moved and felt the emotions of others. She has found it harder to internalize feelings and portray the villain.
- She has disclosed that if she found out that her partner was gay, she would want to know the details and try her best to fix the issue, particularly if they had children.
- She has affirmed that her mother has always told her positive things and urged her to never give up as it is never too late to do what one has to do along with loving what he or she loves. She has seen the wisdom in the words as she has worked hard for her kids and realized that there can be nothing she would not do for the love of her children.
