Camille Prats on life, love and career

Widowed for almost nine months now, 26-year old Camille Prats is not dating anyone nor is she ready for a love life.

"Pagdating sa lovelife, ayaw kong magsalita ng tapos, siguro I'll get there eventually but not now. Hindi ko siya hinahanap. I just want to enjoy all the blessings that I have been receiving from God," she expressed.

She knows that at her  age she is bound to meet someone new someday but she is not rushing things. She is not closing her doors too but her priority remains to be her child and her work.

"Unti-unti nakakapag-move on na ako. Unti-unti natatanggap ko na hindi ko na siya makikita, hindi na siya babalik. That's actually one of my prayers because I want to focus everything on my child, work and school. Gusto ko lang muna na lahat ng gagawin ko para sa akin at sa anak ko," she shared.

She is aware however that some of her male friends are, as we say in the vernacular, "nagpaparamdam." She is not certain  though if their intentions are to court her.

"Nagpapakita lang siguro ng admiration sa akin, natutuwa or nababaitan pero di siguro nanliligaw," she remarked.

If people would notice a "glow" on her face, it's because Camille's wish to become busy in her showbiz career has been answered. She is in "Luna Blanca" and has a new show with GMA News TV titled "MARS" with "Unang Hirit's" co-host Suzi Entrata-Abrera.

"Hosting was an oppprtunity that I was never given before. The last time I hosted was at 'Magandang Tanghali Bayan' I was around 10 years old then. Now I have a talk show which is a first for me," said Camille.

"MARS" for her is a perfect avenue to hone her hosting skills because she relates well to the show being a mother herself. In as much as she'll be learning a lot from the show, what she'll share her audience are her own experiences and what she's going through as a young mother.

"Napalinya ako sa drama so I never thought anyone would get me as a host. So when this was offered I was excited and pressured sa mga expectations sa akin," she related.

She also pointed-out that much of what she could learn from the show would be from her co-host Suzi.

"We'll have different inputs and her being a more experienced mom, iba rin ang understanding niya sa mga topics namin. The show is like a mixture of different generations of motherhood," explained Camille.

According to her, they already finished taping their pilot week and it consists of light and sensitive subjects. For her, topics that other talk shows avoid are discussed in "MARS."

"Nakakatuwa kasi nakaka-relate ako. It's always good that you get to share even your simplest thoughts on motherhood," she quipped.

"MARS" starts airing on June 11, 2012, Monday, 6 pm at GMA News TV 11.
