Jaya figures in car accident in US
OPM singer Jaya, who is known as the Queen of Soul in the Philippines, recently shared her experience of being in a car accident while on her way to Regine Velasquez’s concert in the United States.
She posted a video on her Instagram account, which showed the damaged car and a response team helping the victims of the accident.
“On a ride from Sacramento, California, on the way to Graton Casino to see my friends and watch Regine V’s concert...when all of a sudden we get into a car collision,” the “Wala na Bang Pag-ibig” singer wrote in her post.
The singer then gave an update about her and her friends, who were also with her during the collision.
“My friends Dr. Josephine Weber was driving and with us was Auntie Merly Escolta (her cousin) when suddenly we got hit from the back. I am doing ok but my friends are being checked and they will be alright, by God’s grace. Thank you Jesus for sending us divine protection and covering us with your blood. It could’ve been super worse. I’m glad Doc and Auntie Merls are ok,” the singer wrote.
She went on: “Thank you Lord for making it another day. I am grateful for your mercy and grace. Praise your Holy name.”
“Please wear your seat belts, AT ALL TIMES WHEN YOU ARE IN A VEHICLE, especially if you’re a back seat passenger,” Jaya added.
In 2021, Jaya and her family bid goodbye to the Philippines as they moved to the US and started a new life.
A year later, the singer shared an update on their new home after their first house was caught in a massive fire in August 2022.
