“Prior to that, mga dalawang dekada akong kayod nang kayod,” Lloydie said.
JLC then moved to El Nido, where he tried to live a simple life.
Regine, an El Nido resident, who was interviewed by ‘Kapuso mo, Jessica Soho,’ revealed that Lloydie would often eat in her “karinderya.”

“Nagpa-picture po kami tapos sobrang approachable nya. Nakausap pa namin siya sa phone kasi binigay niya number niya,” said another resident who goes by the name of Fatimah.
When asked why he chose El Nido, Lloydie said he found the place enchanting and believed it was his perfect place for refuge and healing.
