“What’s up, Madlang Filipinas!”
Michelle Dee gave the Madlang People the biggest surprise on “It’s Showtime’s” debut episode on GMA-7 — she is a searcher on EXpecially For You!
The Miss Universe Philippines queen appeared on the segment with her mom, Melanie Marquez, because, “May hinahanap ang puso ko.”
Before meeting her possible matches, Michelle revealed that her last relationship ended in 2020.
She added that she spent years in pursuing something else.
“Last year, may nililigawan ako. ‘Yun nga lang busted ako. Niligawan ko kasi ‘yung korona.”
Appearing with her mom, Michelle said that Melanie set her standards high when it comes to love.
“Sabi ko, ‘anak, ‘wag kang masyadong tanga na katulad ko,’” Melanie said.
She then shared her ideal partner for Michelle. “Kung pwede lang lumampas sa kanyang katalinuhan, sa kanyang height, lalo na.”
Melanie also said that she hopes Michelle’s future partner will have pure intentions and is hardworking.
Since she’s been single for four years, Michelle is ready to fall in love again.
Michelle also talked about her ideal type, and said that she wants to be with someone who understands and supports her career. She also revealed that her ex made her choose between their relationship and her work.
“Gusto ko talaga masipag, matalino, goal-driven,” she said. “Hindi kailangan mayaman, kailangan hardworking. Kasi pwede naman kami magpayaman nang sabay eh.”
The actress and beauty queen added that she could be attracted to the person physically, but the attitude would be the factor to make her stay. “Ano yung goals mo sa buhay, maganda ba ‘yung pagsasama if ever, do we complement each other, may chemistry ba.”
“Syempre, ‘yung kaya din akong alagaan, maintindihan din kung ano ‘yung goals ko sa buhay, kasi medyo marami akong goals sa buhay,” she said.
Kevin, Martin, or Oliver?
During the segment, three candidates were introduced: Kevin, Martin, and Oliver.
From the beginning, Melanie has been favoring Oliver, who is a lawyer from Cebu.
In the end, he’s the one that Michelle chose as well.
The pair was finally able to meet each other properly and face to face when the segment concluded.
