Inamin ni 1999 Miss Universe 1st runner-up Miriam Quiambao na minsan na siyang nagtangkang magpakamatay pero ito ay napigilan lamang nang magbalik loob siya sa Panginoon.

"When I was depressed and suicidal myself, what truly healed me was the love of God," ayon kay Miriam sa isang exclusive interview sa grand launch ng OM-X plus Collagen Drink sa Muntinlupa City nitong Miyerkules. Ang nasabing supplement drink ay distributed ng Pro Bio Medcare Incorporated.

Nagsimula ang depression ni Miriam nang maghiwalay sila ng kaniyang unang asawa na Italian businessman noong 2006. Ikinasal sila noong 2004 at nanirahan sa Hong Kong ng dalawang taon. Pero completely healed na siya ngayon mula sa madilim na kabanata ng buhay niyang ito.

"Someone shared me the love of God. That God loves us. He promised that He will never leave us. Ever since I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and my Savior, that's what truly healed me. I see that there's no one who can understand me. But He understands me more than I understand myself;

"One time I was crying like a baby. And then He was cradling me in His arms. Then I felt His hands on my hair and then he said: 'Tama na, tama na!' Ever since He calls me parang anak, His daughter. Doon ko naramdaman who I am;


"I've experienced success but it all felt empty. Pinagdaanan ko 'yan but my God is great! He has forgiven all my sins and I really felt like I was the prodigal daughter," dagdag pa ni Miriam.


Nang tanungin siya sa usaping suicide, sabi ni Miriam: "Lahat ng mga thoughts na ito galing sa devil. And all those thoughts are just lies. But the truth is God loves us. He has a great plan for us.He has a great future in store for us! Ako nga akala ko wala na akong future. Yun pala God has good plans for me. Since then, I pursue God, get to know Him, read the Bible, praise Him. I was never really the same again."

Si Miriam, 43, ay ikinasal na kay Eduardo "Ardy" Roberto Jr., Christian author at motivational speaker, noong 2014. - ROBERT REQUINTINA

"Oo I am. Pero I don't even know kung alam n'ya. During the Christmas party of ABS CBN last year, I was with Tito Bayani (Agbayani). E magkapitbahay silang dalawa. And even Tito Bayani was telling me hindi na n'ya nakikita si Erpat. Lagi s'yang busy. Sinabi ni Tito Bayani, 'why don't you just text him?' "said Diego, when asked if he's reaching out to his father, during an interview on "Tonight With Boy Abunda" on ABS CBN. "Sabi ko, 'why not?' Nanghihinayang ako eh. Kung kelan ako sobrang seryoso na sa ginagawa ko sa showbiz na 'to, I wanna learn so much. I'm taking workshops with Tito Pen Medina at kung sinu-sino pa. Why not my dad? Why not my father?; "Nanghihinayang lang ako. Sa kont

Megastar Sharon Cuneta has complained about the construction of her neighbor's condominium unit, saying that it brought stress to her family. "Construction in my upstairs neighbor’s condo is driving us nuts! It’s been about a year na," said Cuneta on Facebook. Her complete post: "We are sleep-deprived & the noise is stressful for me, my husband and and my children when we are home, that living in a beautiful building that has its own hotel and restaurants (and that cost more than what I sold our Wack-Wack house for!?!) still makes us all want to move out and check into a nearby hotel or transfer to a house or another condo!; "I understand how uncomfortable it is for a homeowner to have to do some construction in his own property and know he’s inconveniencing and bothering neighbors; "I am usually very understanding.
