"Wonderful" is how Sharon Cuneta describes the present state of her daughter KC Concepcion.

The Megastar adds, "So, I'm happy that KC is—obviously, because it didn't work out—she's happier now.

"I'm happy that she is."

It was late last year when KC broke up with Piolo Pascual.

Her confirmation came in form of a tearful interview, which became the most-read story of PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) in 2011.

It was a spectacle that most parents wouldn't want to see, and Sharon admits to getting hurt.

On January 11, at the press conference of her upcoming concert with Martin Nievera in Discovery Suites, Sharon says, "Nung natapos at natapos, siyempre masakit ang loob ko dahil umiyak ang anak ko."

But she perfectly understands that relationships either succeed or fail. "Kaya nga, di ba nagiging mag-boyfriend kayo para you try kung puwede o hindi. E, it didn't work out for reasons na kanila na lang 'yon."

And if she has love advice for KC, Sharon tells the press, "Yung sinabi niya na 'Don't let anyone step on you,' lagi kong sinasabi sa kanya yun.

"You can always bend for someone. You cannot allow yourself to break for someone."

SPEAKING OF PIOLO...How did the split change her perception of the actor?  

"I have loved Piolo," she throws in before a brief pause.

Continuing, "Napaka-ipokrita ko naman pag sinabi kong ganun ko pa rin siya kamahal o ganun pa rin siya ka-importante sa akin.

"Kase hindi naman siya nagpakita sa amin or anything.

"Actually, hindi ko siya nakita since naging boyfriend siya ni KC...so dun pa lang may tampo na 'ko."

But despite what happened, the multi-awarded actress-singer still has respect for Piolo.

"I still respect him as an actor.

"I respect the fact na alam mo yung nagsikap para marating ang narating niya.

"I respect that in a person.
