Herlene Budol claims she can build their roof with the money she will earn from Toni Gonzaga's vlog with her.
Herlene Budol, aka Hipon Girl, had a hopeful expression on her face and voice during an interview in Singapore in July 2019.
She was Willie Revillame's co-host in Wowowin at the time. She boarded a private plane, landed in a different country, and spent a few days in a five-star hotel.
She was a very different person two years later, crying and expressing tremendous regret in a new episode of Toni Talks, Toni Gonzaga's YouTube channel.
The coronavirus pandemic had a significant impact on her and her family's lives.
The pandemic, according to Herlene, was the reason for the loss of the P100,000 she had saved while co-hosting Willie's GMA-7 game show.
"Buti nga nag-ipon ako, kung hindi wala, patay na kami ng pamilya ko dahil sa pandemic na'to.
"Hindi alam ng lolo't lola ko na nag-ipon ako. Tapos, gate pa lang ang napapagawa ko sa bahay namin, hindi man lang pumasok ng bahay.
"Siyempre, buong angkan ko, sa akin \[nakaasa\]. Talagang walang-wala.
"Na-anxiety ako. Umiiyak ako araw-araw. Dumating ako sa puntong parang ayoko na.
"Ayoko nang magpakita sa pamilya ko kasi nahihiya ako. Back to zero kami.
"Walang-wala na talaga. Kahit hanggang ngayon, wala na ulit akong pinagkukunan ng pera talaga kasi sa akin lahat umaasa talaga ang pamilya ko.
"Dati pagkain lang, ngayon pati kuryente sa akin," Herlene shared.
Herlene had only been working in the entertainment industry for two years when she learned the hard fact that the job she had chosen was not permanent.
She stated that her main goal was for her family to be happy. So, despite her earnings, while she was still working, she had little to live on.
In a Facebook post, she stated that the funds from the YouTube video will be used to build their roof. Herlene encouraged her fans to watch the interview.
She posted, "Pakipanood po ang Toni talks Ang kikitain po neto ay pang papagawa po ng bubong namin Eto po Ang link please like at paki share nadin po Salamat ng madami."
