Regine Velasquez, in a startling ‘tell-all’ in ABS-CBN's morning talk show, ‘Magandang Buhay,’ revealed that she used to be the “third party” in the married life of Ogie Alcasid and his ex-wife, Michelle Van Eimeren.
In a report by Latest Chika, the singer, who is often referred to as Asia’s songbird, said that while Michelle had already forgiven her for it a long time ago, she admits still feeling “guilt” whenever she recalls what happened back then.
“For a while, I have to say, I had to live with that guilt. Like I was living in that guilt and my husband would say, 'It was not about you. It was about me and Michelle.' But even then, I was there. I was part of it. I was the 'third party.' And for a time, na-forgive na ako ni Michelle, na-forgive na ako ng mga tao, except me. I wasn't forgiving myself. And I'm still working on it,” Regine said.
According to a report by Abante, Regine said she didn’t mean for it to happen and that she didn’t want anyone to get hurt.

“My husband and I started that way, pero 'yun kasi, we were good friends. Hindi ko naman sinasadya. Kasi pwede rin namang mangyari rin talaga 'yun eh... hindi mo naman pinipili 'yung mga mamahalin mo eh. Parang, gusto ko bang sadyain 'yun, gusto ko ba na merong masaktan? May mga matitinong tao na hindi naman 'yun ang iniisip nila. It's just that, sometimes it happens,” she narrated.
An Inquirer report also quoted Regine as saying that that if she could bring back the time, she would have preferred that no one gets hurt.
“Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyayari sa marriage nila at that time. I don't know kasi hindi naman ako kasali doon eh. But it happened. But I just have to say, it was so difficult. And if I can bring back the time? I love my husband, but if I could bring back the time, siguro mas gugustuhin ko na wala kaming nasaktan. Na walang dalawang bata na nag-suffer because we wanted to be together,” she said.
Ogie and Michelle have two kids, namely, Leila, who is now a recording artist, and Sarah, who is living with her mom in Australia.
Trying to hold back her tears, Regine said every now and then she would remember what happened and she would still feel guilty.
“Every now and then, I would remember what happened to us and I'd still be guilty. So mahirap din to be in that situation na hindi mo naman sinasadya na magmahal ng tao. And I'm a decent person and I do not want to hurt anyone. That's the last thing that I would want in my life. But it happens,” the singer revealed.
She also gave an advice to those who are in a similar situation, saying they should first think about themselves and what they’re getting into.
Regine said while most would often choose what their heart tells them, it’s also vital to love themselves more.
Regine Velasquez is a famous singer, host, and actress in the Philippines. She is dubbed as the Asia’s Songbird because of her outstanding vocal range. She is married to singer-songwriter Ogie Alcasid.
The addition of Regine to the morning talk show "Magandang Buhay," was a welcome development to her co-hosts. Recently, her co-host, Jolina Magdangal, posted about the generosity of Regine. The popular singer gave her fancy shoes to Jolina, which filled the latter with joy and excitement. She also described Regine as a real-life fairy godmother to her and many people. Jolina added that Regine is known for giving away expensive stuff to others.
Regine also showed her funny side in one episode of 'It's Showtime,' where Ogie is also a co-host. In a segment of the show, co-host Amy Perez jokingly confided to Regine that Ogie told her the singer looked like a shitzu. Regine, in a jest, then grabbed Ogie by his hoodie and dragged him out of 'It's Showtime.'
