Jennylyn Mercado says marriage made relationship with Dennis Trillo more ‘positive’
JENNYLYN Mercado is aware of the many changes she and Dennis Trillo went through since tying the knot in November 2021, but she’s glad it made their relationship stronger.
On the sidelines of the press conference for “Love. Die. Repeat,” Mercado told reporters that she and Trillo work as a team in maintaining their relationship while noting how it changed the latter in a more “positive” way.
“Iba na kapag mag-asawa na. Maraming adjustments. Mar am in gk ail an gang tanggapin, kaya kailangang
team at isang pamilya kayo. Lahat ng desisyon, dapat kayong dalawa. Dapat pagusapan niyong dalawa kung may plano,” she said. “Positive naman [ ang pagbabago ni
Dennis]. Kapag mag- asawa na pala, wala na ‘yung selos.”
When at home, Mercado shared that she and Trillo work on a “shifting” schedule, where she takes care of the house in the morning. Her husband, on the other hand, takes over at night. “Dennis is very hands-on.
Hindi ko in- expect na ka- level niya ang pagiging hands-on ko. Kahit umuwi siya sa bahay ga ling ta ping nang 1 a.m ., hindi na siya matutulog. Siya kasi ang night shift. Gan’un kami. Hihintayin niya akong magising tapos ako naman,”
she said.
The actress- singer also admitted that she and her husband decided to hire a house help once Trillo returned to his day- to- day activities. She also noted that the “Maria Clara at Ibarra” star became her “life coach” as she made her teleserye comeback. “Bago mag- isang taon si
Dylan (their daughter), kami lang. Wala kaming yaya. Noong bumalik si Dennis sa trabaho, kailangan nang kumuha ng yaya… Kahit papaano, iba na ang motherhood para sa’kin kasi may katuwang ako. Meron nang naga-alaga sa’kin,” she said.
