Last Monday, May 18, 2015, it was announced that Bela Padilla is the leading lady of Coco Martin in the new FPJ-serye Ang Probinsyano on ABS-CBN.
Some people were surprised that she moved to the Kapamilya Network after being with GMA 7 for four years. She shared during the press conference that early last year, she already told GMA executives that she had plans to move to ABS-CBN and that they even made a counter-offer. However, she pushed through with the move because she felt like she wanted to try something new. Bela said that she wasn’t bored but that some of the things she was doing already started to become a routine for her. She also said that she didn’t feel neglected by GMA 7 but that she had to look out for herself.
Not a lot of people know that Bela started with ABS-CBN as a Star magic talent. “It’s good to be back,” she said. “I’m excited to work.”
