Maricel Soriano Reveals ‘BIGGEST REGRET’ In Life

Maricel Soriano Shares Her Biggest Regret

MARICEL SORIANO – Diamond Star Maria Cecilia “Maricel” Dador Soriano revealed her biggest regret.

Actress Maricel Soriano expressed her biggest regret for not giving enough time to her two sons, Marion and Tien, during their younger years. Maricel, who started her acting career at the tender age of 6, remains as active as ever at 59.

Her recent appearances include the film “In His Mother’s Eyes” directed by FM Reyes and the television series “Linlang.”

Reflecting on a poignant moment shared with her sons, Maricel Soriano recounted a heartfelt conversation where she sought their forgiveness for her past shortcomings. Overwhelmed by their understanding and love, she was left speechless, acknowledging the profound impact her children had on her.

“Once, the three of us went on a date. I said sorry to them. I told them, ‘I hope you can still find it in your heart to forgive Mama. They said, ‘No need to apologize, Mama. We understand you. We love you. We forgive you,” Maricel said.

Describing her sons’ personalities, Maricel Soriano said her eldest is resolute in his decisions, while the younger one tends to be more dependent, always mindful of her well-being. Grateful for their presence in her life, she cherishes their unique qualities.

“My eldest is very firm in making decisions. When he doesn’t want to do something, no one can sway him into doing it. The other one is quite clingy. He always observes what I’m doing and makes me promise to always take care of my health. He would say, ‘I’m here to guard you, Mama.’ I’m grateful to them.”

Addressing her past tendencies, Maricel admitted to possibly indulging her children excessively, a choice she stands by without regret. Despite moments where her attention may have been diverted to other family members, she now prioritizes her sons unequivocally, affirming her unwavering commitment to them, even to the extent of sacrificing her own life.

“I guess it’s true what people said about me—that I had spoiled my kids too much. I never regretted doing that. My sons waited for me for a long time. There was even a point when I prioritized my family—my mother and siblings—over them. Now, it’s their turn. My time now is only for them,” she declared. “What would I readily give up for them? My own life.”
