What would I get from being proficient in English if I won\u2019t be able to provide for my loved ones?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rivera admitted that she is not good in English, but said that she cannot accept those who belittle her because of that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor someone to earn a degree in Psychology in a well-known university, I think that speaks a lot about his\/her level of intelligence,\u201d she further explained.<\/p>\n<p>During the same interview, Rivera with her husband Dingdong Dantes also shared some things about their relationship, particularly how they face misunderstandings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m very sensitive. Despite that, I forgive easily,\u201d said Rivera. \u201cDingdong knows how to sway me. He will send me sweet messages or bring me flowers or sometimes we eat out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Dantes said that the secret of their relationship is that they never allow the day to end without talking about their problems. Moreover, he encouraged other couples from involving other people into their problems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s good to talk to other couples to get their opinion. But at the end of the day, you need to understand that just because their solution is effective it means it will be applicable to you as well,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MANILA \u2013 Kapuso star Marian Rivera recently answered back to her critics saying that being proficient in English does not &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":44,"featured_media":23673,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-37565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment-ph","mauthors-lei-fontamillas","mauthors-philippine-canadian-inquirer"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37565","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/44"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37565"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37565\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23673"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=37565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=37565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
