Sunshine: Cesar is a good father
Sunshine Cruz and Cesar Montano may still have marital issues. But when it comes to being a father, Sunshine has no complaints about her husband.
"He's a good provider and really generous. As a father, hindi ko ipagdadamot sa kanya ang anak ko. Anak niya din iyan at napakabuti niya sa mga anak ko," she said at the press conference of her comeback teleserye, "Dugong Buhay" on Wednesday, April 3.

Although Sunshine left the conjugal home after starlet Krista Miller posted photos of gifts Cesar reportedly gave her, the uncouple were together at their daughters’ graduation.
“Anak namin ang nag-graduate and ang dami nilang awards. I'm very, very proud of my children kasi ang daming recognition. Of course tatay iyon," Sunshine gushed.

The singer-actress shared that she had no problem meeting Cesar again at the graduation rites because it was for their children. Their family even had photos and had lunch together.
"Wala namang problem. Kung ano man ang nilagay ko sa Instagram, it came from my heart," she said.
Open communication lines
The children stay with Cesar whenever Sunshine tapes her new drama. They also keep communication lines open for their kids.
She and Cesar still haven't reconciled. But Sunshine’s love for Cesar remains. After all, she considers him her first love.

"Ang pagmamahal na iyan, kahit sa kanya sinabi ko, it will always be there, hindi mawawala iyon. Kasi talagang minahal mo at marami kang sinakripisyo sa tao. And siguro kahit na magkaroon kami ng iba't ibang buhay, andiyan yung pagmamahal ko sa kanya dahil tatay siya ng mga anak namin."

"For now, I don't know. Only God knows. Sa ngayon talaga, kung ano man yung mga dumarating sa akin na trabaho, doon ako naka-focus at sa mga anak ko. Huwag muna. Pabayaan na muna namin ang isa't isa," Sunshine replied.
She added that “Dugong Buhay,” based on a story by Carlo J. Caparas, comes at the perfect time for her because her daughters are now grown-up.
"Sino naman ako para humindi, malalaki na rin ang mga kids ko? I feel blessed na sa dami ng pwedeng piliin for this role, I was chosen. Grabe yung pag-aasikaso nila sa akin," she said.
"Dugong Buhay," directed by Toto Natividad and Mikey del Rosario, also stars Ejay Falcon, Arjo Atayde, Nonie Buencamino, Christian Vasquez, Ronnie Quizon, Pen Medina, Lito Pimentel and Ana Capri.
