Judy Ann “Judai” Santos was surprised to hear about Claudine Barretto’s transfer to another network.

As to whether or not the network transfer will stir up their rivalry issues again, Judai replied: “Kahit saan naman may competition. And it’s okay as long as it is a healthy competition. Ang mahalaga at the end of the day hindi nawawala yung pagiging magkaibigan namin.”

Judai said that she still hopes she can work with Claudine again.

“Hanggang ngayon nagdadasal pa din ako na sana dumating ang panahon na magkasama kami sa isang project. Maraming pwedeng mangyari, marami pang pwede magbago uli. Maraming posibilidad kaya hindi malayong mangyari ‘yung mga ganung bagay,” she said.


Meanwhile, Santos also defended her husband Ryan Agoncillo over the latter’s appearances in other networks.

She said: “Wala naman exclusive contract si Ryan with ABS-CBN, so okay lang naman ‘yun. Tsaka ‘yun talaga yung gusto niyang gawin, hosting. Dun talaga siya magaling.”

She said that as husband and wife, they support each other in every decision they make.

She also clarified the issue that just because Agoncillo has a lot of projects lined-up than her, there is a competition between the two of them.

“Bago pa man kami ikasal, talagang nakilala na kami sa kanya-kanya naming pangalan, siya bilang Ryan Agoncillo, magaling na host at ako isang simpleng artista. Tsaka dun naman talaga magaling si Ryan, sa pagho-host. Pero napatunayan rin naman niya na kaya niya umarte like sa Pieta ‘di ba?” she said.

Santos also disagreed with the idea that once an actress is already married, she loses her “market value.”

“I don’t think so. Bakit naman si Ate Shawie (Sharon Cuneta)? Bakit naman si Ate Vi (Vilma Santos)? Hanggang ngayon nandiyan pa rin sila,” she said.
