MANILYN REYNES is seen making people laugh in “Pepito Manaloto” on weekends, but weeknights, she makes people cry in her role as Daisy, the grieving mother of Ken Chan and Sheena Halili in “Destiny Rose”. “Nagpapasalamat talaga ako sa GMA for the good projects they give me,” she says. “I feel so lucky na I can do drama in one show and comedy naman doon sa isa. I’m so happy for Ken Chan sa big success ng ‘Destiny Rose’ dahil nakita ko ang struggle niya to be effective and believable in the role of a transwoman. This week, mare-recognize ko nang si Destiny, at ang akala kong namatay kong anak na si Joey, are actually one and the same. Habang inaayos namin ang Christmas tree sa bahay, tinawag niya akong Mama at doon ko na-confirm na siya nga ang nawawala kong anak. Pero siempre, hindi pa namin ito ipapaalam sa ama niyang si Joko Diaz as Lito. Giliw na giliw kasi si Joko kay Destiny without knowing na ito yung anak niyang sobrang pinagmamalupitan niya noong araw dahil nga bading.”
