Bea Alonzo admits pressure in replacing 'The Legal Wife'

MANILA, Philippines- Bea Alonzo makes a comeback on TV with her upcoming drama series â€œSana Bukas Pa Nag Kahapon.”

Her show will replace “The Legal Wife” which stars Angel Locsin, Jericho Rosales, and Maja Salvador and has  high ratings and a huge following.

With the good feedback for “The Legal Wife,” Bea admits that “nape-pressure ako. Pero ginawa namin ang best naming lahat [para sa show], bahala na si Lord. So sana, sana [mag-rate].”

Meanwhile, Bea feels honored to be working with Susan Roces.

She admits that she's a big fan of the Queen of Philippine Movies, and she's very thankful that she was given a chance to work with her in her upcoming primetime drama series.

“Noong unang taping with her nagpa-picture po ako kaagad sa kanya kasi hindi ko mapaniwalaang kasama ko siya,” Bea recalled during the presscon of the show. “I'm very, very happy na nangyari 'to. Nagpapasalamat ako sa Dreamscape na pinagkatiwalaan ako.”

In this series, Bea will play two roles: Rose, a kind hearted businesswoman who was cast-off by her parents after marrying chocolatier Patrick (Paulo Avelino); another is Emmanuel, a successful lawyer who sacrifices her time for her family for her career.

“Sana Bukas Pa Ang Kahapon” will air on June 16, on the ABS-CBN primetime block.
