The 38-year-old actress admitted that she feels blessed to be carrying her first baby with fiance Trev Magallanes.
“Siyempre, ninerbiyos din ako kung mabibigyan ko talaga siya ng family kasi yung age ko, di ba, 38 [years old]?
“So, sabi ko, ‘Mabibigyan ko pa kaya ito ng anak?’ Hahaha!”
The actress/comedienne revealed that her pregnancy is in a delicate stage.
She said, “Sensitibo nga. Nag-spotting ako nung second month ko. Na-ospital ako ng apat na araw.
“Kasi nga tumakbo ako. Hindi ko naman alam na bawal gumalaw pag buntis ka.”
The sexy comedienne added that she was advised by her doctor to take it easy.
“Kailangan lahat dahan-dahan lang. Hindi ka na nga puwede yumuko basta, e. Kailangan may poise na.”
Rufa Mae also related that she often feels exhausted because of her condition.
She said, “Umiiyak nga ako sa kanya. Sabi ko, ‘Grabe I had hangovers, ha.’
Pagsama-samahin mo na lahat ng hangover. I’ve never felt this tired.”
But despite her diffi culties, Rufa Mae maintained that she’s excited to be a fi rst-time mom.
“Ito yung moment na araw-araw wala kang emptiness ever. Kasi parang alam mo na may kasama ka lumaki, e.
“Kahit na mawala ka nang gagawin, kayong dalawa lang, puwede mo siya kausapin, ‘Hello there, anak!”
As pregnant women always say, all the difficulties are worth the blessing of having a baby.
Rufa Mae concluded, “Siguro ito yung umpisa ng todo [blessings]. When it rains it pours…Happy ending!”

ANGEL LOCSIN neither confirmed nor denied that she will still play Darna in Star Cinema’s upcoming movie version.
However, she did disclose that her health condition is much better and that she is willing to reprise the role of the Pinoy superheroine.
When asked if she be seen once again as Darna, Angel answered,
‘Hindi ko rin alam kung anong sasabihin ko sa time na ito.
‘Baka mas safe kung hindi muna ako mag-comment about that.
‘Pero pag dumating naman ang panahon, kayo naman ang una kong makakausap.’
Is she still open to doing the iconic superheroine role?
‘Very open naman ako from the start. Isa yun sa mga dream roles ko talaga.
‘Ang laki ng naitulong sa akin noon sa career ko nung ginawa ko ang Darna.
‘Hindi siya mawawala sa isip ko talaga.’
It will be recalled that Angel played the komiks superheroine for GMA-7’s telefantasya Darna in 2005.
In October 2015, Angel announced that she could no longer star in the movie version of Darna because of a disc bulge in her spine.
The ABS-CBN actress underwent a series of operations for this condition.
How is her back now?
‘Okay na, pwede na siya sirain uli,’ joked Angel.
Turning serious, she continued, ‘Okay naman siya. May assessment ako ulit [sa doctor].
‘Tapusin lang natin itong pelikula,’referring to the movie The Third Party starring her, Zanjoe Marudo and Sam Milby.
