“Alam mo, nag-message siya sa akin. Sumagot. Sabi niya, ‘Thank you, Tito Ogie. I hope you and the family are doing well.’ Thank you, Liza,” Ogie shared with a smile during the broadcast. For many, this simple exchange is a massive step forward, considering the two had not been on speaking terms for nearly three years following a highly publicized rift over Liza’s career direction.

Ogie reflected on the situation with maturity, noting that time has a way of healing old wounds. He expressed that at this stage in their lives, holding onto bitterness serves no purpose. “Ang tatanda na namin. Kumbaga, magtatanim ka ba ng sama ng loob? Once upon a time, naging anak mo ‘yan. Nabigyan ka rin naman ng magandang career because of Liza,” he explained.

The veteran talent manager also took a moment to look back at how Liza’s success fundamentally changed his life. He recalled the financial support her career provided during one of his family’s darkest hours—the birth of his daughter, Miracle. “Lagi ko rin namang sinasabi if not for Liza, Diyos ko, ‘yong aking anak na si Miracle, sa’n ko huhugutin ‘yong mga panggastos sa ospital, ‘di ba?” he added, emphasizing his lasting gratitude.
