Vice Ganda shared that she and Ion Perez are considering having a baby through surrogacy.
"Gusto talaga namin [to have a child]. Nag-consult na ako sa doctor. Pinaplano na nga," Vice said in an interview with Karen Davila.
Vice relayed that she will be the one undergoing the procedure. However, the plan has yet to push through as she was advised by her doctor to rest for three months prior to the procedure to ensure optimal health.
"Sa age ko kailangan healthy ang aking mga [sperm]... Kung stress daw ako, hindi raw healthy 'yung sperm so para makasiguro kang healthy 'yan, 'yung maiipon natin na healthy, kailangan masaya 'yung utak mo, relaxed ka. Kung pagod at nganga ang katawan mo, 'yung utak mo pa ay pagod, hindi tayo sure," she explained.
The Call Me Mother star admitted that taking a three-month break is currently not feasible, especially since she is deeply involved in It’s Showtime, where she serves not only as a host but also plays an active role in the show’s production.
"Kung kita at kita rin lang naman, parang kaya ko naman magpahinga ng three months but I cannot leave Showtime. Hindi dahil sa 'yung kita ko mawawala. Hindi naman sa 'pag mamayabang pero 'yung sa sobrang pagmamahal ko sa Showtime, parang what will happen to Showtime if I am not there for three months? 'Yun nga lang isang linggo na wala ako, nauunawaan ko 'pag tinatawagan na ako ng management. Nauunawaan ko kung 'yung mga tao nagti-tweet na, 'Nasaan ka na?'" she explained.
Vice further shared how deeply attached she is to the Showtime family, admitting that she finds it difficult to step away. "Sa sobrang pagamahal ko rin dun sa pamilyang 'yun, ang hirap silang iwanan. Hindi nila kasalanan ha? Kasalanan ko 'to, sa akin 'yun. Grabe ko silang mahal... 'Pag wala nga ako sa trabaho naka-monitor ako eh. Habang nasa shooting ako ng pelikula, habang nasa shooting, naka-monitor ako," she said.
Vice said she is still keeping the possibility open and is currently looking for someone who can take on her responsibilities during her absence.
"Bago ko kasi gawin 'yun, three months akong rest tsaka nila ako kukunan para healthy. Tapos every now and then kailangan kung bumalik dun. Kaya kailagan, nagdi-diskubre kasi ako ng mga pwedeng isama sa Showtime na 'yung parang kahit wala ako," she said.
