Sheryl Cruz is happy to hear that her cousin Donna Cruz is slated to return to showbiz this year. Sheryl says about this development, “If she is returning to showbiz, I would gladly welcome her back. “We need a lot of good actors and triple threats kasi si Donna magaling umarte at magaling kumanta. “She lives in Cebu and she needs her privacy. She’s closer sa [relatives on my] father’s side; ako, I’m closer to my mother’s side.” At the presscon of GMA-7’s latest Dramarama Sa Hapon offering, Ikaw Lang Ang Mamahalin, last night, October 4, at the 17th floor of GMA Network Center. DIVORCE. Sheryl then opened up about her divorce from her husband of 12 years, Norman Bustos. “I need to focus on issues like my divorce,” she says. “Everything has been settled since August 2010 but, of course, it will take some time for me to recover. “Hopefully, it’s progressing not regressing.”

Sheryl and Norman tied the knot three times. First, in 1996 in civil rites held in Lake Tahoe, Nevada; the second was in a Catholic wedding in the Philippines the same year; and the last was one was in 1997 in a church in San Francisco, California. Asked about the reason for their divorce, Sheryl points out, “It’s a whole lot of reasons. “People would presume it’s because of a third party or it’s a long-distance relationship, pero tanging mag-asawa lang ang makakaalam. “What’s important is that Norman and I are civil when it comes to our daughter Ashley.”

How is their daughter dealing with this situation? “She’s at that age when she would like to feel secure na alam niyang parehong magulang niya ay mahal siya. “I don’t want her to think that financial matters would come first before her. “Mabait naman ang Diyos at hindi naman kami pinababayaan.”
