Edu Manzano is aware of the possibility that Luis Manzano will enter politics
TV host Luis Manzano expressed in a previous interview that he is ready to enter politics and this received a reaction from his father seasoned actor Edu Manzano.
Luis has expressed his desire to be in public service but he has not released a statement yet with finality regarding this matter. Although he has been in the entertainment industry for many years, he is also aware of how politics go because his mother Star for all Seasons Vilma Santos was an elected official in Batangas.
Luis’s stepfather Ralph Recto served as a Senator for several terms while his father Edu served as a vice mayor of Makati.
In July, Luis Manzano received speculations that he was making his presence known in Batangas when he attended an event with Ralph Recto in which President Bongbong Marcos was also present. On the other hand, the TV host clarified that he was just to represent his mother.
In a recent interview, based on the article in Inquirer, Edu Manzano expressed his thoughts on the possibility that his son will enter politics. The seasoned actor said that he would definitely be there for Luis.
Edu also mentioned that Luis’s mom has been popular in the public service arena and he also had his fair share of this endeavor.
However, Edu said that even though Luis has natural charisma, his son should be well aware of the sacrifices he should make. The seasoned actor said that it would be difficult to be in politics while still being so active in showbiz.
For Edu, it would be unfair to be in public service and yet do a lot of showbiz projects. “When I was in public service, I would only work on TV and film sa gabi,” he shared.
Edu Manzano also said that Luis Manzano is indeed charismatic but he hopes his son would be more stable mentally.
