Eugene Domingo: A Woman Who Chooses Not to Be a Mother
Does a woman who’s fond of kids — yet doesn’t want to be a mother herself — exist in our midst? The answer is yes, it’s Eugene Domingo. Already married to Italian divorcee Danilo Bottoni, the ace comedienne doesn’t see herself conceiving a baby.
Eugene’s Stance on Motherhood
In Ogie Diaz’s vlog interview, Uge as she’s fondly called admits, “Do you think I’d still want to get pregnant at my age now? I’m like a dry well!” Uge is quick to say that even way before marriage, raising kids has never crossed her mind.
“I’m fond of kids, like my siblings’ kids as in I play with them, I spoil them…but to have one of my own, I don’t think I can raise my child well. I’d just like to get it straight, I just can’t imagine taking care of a child when I cannot even take care of myself!” Eugene clarifies.
Eugene’s Choice and Support for Friends
Having no one to raise is no problem with her partner, “I’m just waiting for his grandkids.” This mindset though, as she justifies, is her choice. And she’s happy with the choice she made.
Despite her I-don’t-want-to-be-a-mother outlook, Uge welcomes close friends — who are mommies themselves — who run to her for advice. One such long-time buddy is Pokwang, mother of two.
Credit should be given to Uge whose pieces of sound advice to Pokwang had helped the latter’s heart to soften on Lee. As Malia’s proudly states, Uge has a different approach to troubleshooting domestic kinks between couples.
The TV Host-Actress and the Female Colleague
Guess Who? This TV host-actress (TVHA) is least affected after a female colleague (FC) took a swipe at her in the latter’s tagline for an e-commerce site of which she’s the new ambassador. The FC is the newest face of the online shopping app replacing the TVHA.
In her advertising campaign, the FC asked the shopping app users if they already had the e-commerce platform reinstalled on their phones. The TVHA received a backlash from users last year prompting the latter to either uninstall the app or still maintain it however avoid using it.
The shopping online app users got turned off by the TVHA’s political leanings. They now welcome its new endorser who has a distinct moniker to her credit. A silent war of sorts is said to have been a-brewing between the TVHA and the FC for many years now despite their once-common network affiliation.
