Previously, Frankie revealed in an interview that entering politics was never in her plans even though she has been vocal about issues involving the country.
“I understood suddenly ganun pala ang mga tao actually. Tuwing nagiging politically involved, ibig sabihin may ambition... may interest at least, and I never was that kind of person,” she previously shared.
She maintained that she has been using her voice to amplify the problems that need to be addressed in the country.
“It is really just tao pong Pilipino na nais pong magbago ang mga problema sa Pilipinas and I think that's just really just it, bilang mamamayang Pilipino and hindi po bilang anak ng sino man," she added.
