Carla Abellana supports divorce legalization in PH

Kapuso actress Carla Abellana expressed her support for the legalization of divorce in the Philippines, citing her realistic view on marriage and its potential difficulties.

Abellana believes that many Filipinos would benefit from divorce, acknowledging that marriage can be challenging and, at times, toxic.

She highlighted the plight of individuals in abusive relationships who may feel trapped in unhealthy marriages for the sake of their children due to the lack of legal recourse.

The actress emphasized that such situations are not only detrimental to the marriage itself but also to the overall well-being of the family.

Abellana, who recently went through her own failed marriage, stated that her concept of marriage has been significantly altered.

Her ex-husband, Tom Rodriguez, who is an American citizen, filed for divorce in the United States following their separation.

Due to her experiences, Abellana shared that she does not foresee herself getting married again.
