MANILA — Actress Bela Padilla relays how she closed her long-time rift with Marian Rivera after her guesting in Marian’s show.

“It’s been so long and I really wanted closure,” Bela said in a report for the Philippine Entertainment Portal.

The actress was reported to have had a disagreement with Marian Rivera during the Endless Love series which starred both the actresses in 2010.

Bela was initially asked to guest in Marian’s weekly dance program, “Marian” through Bela’s bestfriend, Sarah Lahbati.

“She texted Sarah [Lahbati] to ask me,” Bela said. “And I said yes to Sarah after double checking with my managers that I was available to guest on the date she sent.

”

“I was surprised, of course!” Bela added.

Bela said she has long been wanting to end their rift.

“I’ve been looking for a way lang, and that guesting was the perfect opportunity to do that,” she said.

“Even four years ago, when it [the issue] just happened, I was initially sad and scared, but I let it go right away,” she added.
