Dawn Zulueta only has good words for Jessy Mendiola, who plays her daughter in the upcoming ABS-CBN series “You’re My Home.”
Zulueta said Mendiola has remained professional on the set despite the controversies which she has been facing through these past few weeks.
“Jessy is always very professional and very sweet. Tahimik lang siya magtrabaho,” she said. “Ngayon, napansin ko lang na si Jessy is very serious, very quiet. She likes to sit by herself. Kunyari nagpe-prepare lang kaming lahat, parang tahimik lang siya.”
Asked if Mendiola ever opened up to her, Zulueta said: “Hindi naman makuwento si Jessy. Pinakikiramdaman ko lang. I just make her feel that if she needs to talk to someone or if she wants to ask me anything, she’s always welcome to do so. I make her also feel that way.”

While she does not want to interfere with Mendiola’s personal life, Zulueta said she is always willing to listen if case she approaches her.
“I wouldn’t know what advice to give her until I know kung ano ‘yung pinagdadaanan niya. I only have a hunch but I’m not going to speculate,” she said.
Directed by Jerry Lopez Sineneng and produced by Star Creatives, “You’re My Home” will mark the return of the Richard Gomez-Dawn Zulueta tandem on television.
It will also launch the tandem of Mendiola and JC De Vera, who are working with each other for the first time. The show also features Sam Concepcion, Paul Salas, Precious Lara Quigaman and Assunta de Rossi.
It will join the primetime lineup of ABS-CBN soon. (MNS)
