Despite giving birth to Ellie just six months ago, Andi Eigenmann is in top form for her new teleserye, Kahit Puso'y Masugatan. She reveals her weight-loss secret: "Talagang motivated ako to get back into shape quickly para siyempre makabalik ako agad sa work.  Determined ako na yung kakainin ko lang talaga yung karapat-dapat, kakain pero di masyadong marami. Work out? Di pa ako puwedeng mag-work out kasi Cesarian section ako.”

Sa kabila ng mga pangyayari, intriga at isyung kinaharap ni Andi Eigenmann dahil sa insidentang naganap sa Fiamma Bar sa Makati, espesyal ang darating na Mother’s Day para sa aktres dahil ito ang kauna-unahang taon niya bilang isang ina.

Noong May 6, hindi napigilan ni Andi na sabuyan ng alak sa mukha si Albie Casiño, ang sinasabing ama ng anak niya. Sumunod dito ang pambubugbog na nangyari kay Albie na ang mga kaibigan daw ng aktres ang may kagagawan.

PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) and Cinema News were able to interview Andi last Monday during the pictorial for her new teleserye for ABS-CBN titled, Kahit Puso’y Masugatan.

Tinanong namin siya kung ano ang mga plano niya para sa Mother's Day (May 13).

"Just like always  I will spend it with my Mom, and of course, [this time], with Ellie [palayaw ng anak niya]. I haven’t really [bonded with my Mom for a] long time.

"Iba na ang ginagawa namin sa buhay namin, kaya in a way I’m looking forward to spending  Mother's Day with her and with Ellie."

Masayang nagkuwento si Andi tungkol sa anak at ibinahagi niya ang advice sa kanya ng ina na si Jaclyn Jose.

“She’s [Ellie] so fat [and] cute like me. She’s a happy baby and I’m very happy about it.

"Kahit na mahirap yung job ko, parang di ko pinepressure ang sarili ko [with] Ellie. My Mom, sinasabi niya palagi, 'Just because you have Ellie, kinakalimutan mo na you’re just 21.

"'You also deserve to live like a 21-year-old, gumigimik, pero siyempre there are limits.'

"It’s a personal choice... as long as  Ellie is awake I want to be around her," aniya.

ANDI AS MOM. Tinanong namin si Andi kung paano niya ilalarawan ang sarili bilang isang ina at kung mayroon na siyang plano para sa kanyang anak.

“I’m a cool mom.  Actually natatawa nga sa akin yung mga kaibigan ko kasi kahit matagal pang mangyayari kay Ellie, pag may tanong sila sa akin, nasasagot ko agad. 

"So buong time na I was pregnant, pinag-iisipan ko talaga. I kept Ellie because I wanted to. I was 100 percent sure that I would, and could, take care of her and raise her properly.

“Siguro kasi yun ang upbringing sa akin ng Mom at Daddy ko.

    dahil sa insidente sa bar, halos lahat ng tao nag assume na gabi-gabi nalang si andi sa fiamma. mukhang pinanindigan naman niya ang pagka mother ng anak niya. kahit may anak, may karapatan di naman siya nga mag unwind minsan. tsaka, di naman cguro ipagsigawan ni andi na si albie ang ama ng kanyang anak kung di ito totoo. bata pa si andi kaya medyo impulsive.

    that's good to know andi naging matapang at naging maprinsipyo ka na ng dumating si ellie sa buhay mo.ganyan talaga pag naging nanay na tayo nagiging open ka na sa lahat ng aspeto sa buhay.naiintindihan natin ang mga bagay na dati hindi natin naintindihan.focus nalang sa career mo at sa baby mo at tama yung sinabi ng mom mo na huwag mong kalimutan na 21 ka pa kahit mga nanay na tayo importante pa rin na makapagrelax tayo kahit paminsan minsan.

    RESPONSIBILITIES. Sana maunawaan ng LUBOS ng ABS CBN star na si Andi Eigenmann ang mga responsibilities niya sa anak niya. Sana, HUWAG na siyang NAGBABABAD sa mga bars gaya ng Fiammi Bar buong magdamag, buong madaling araw at PINABABAYAAN yung anak niya na wala siya sa piling ng anak para mag breastfeed at mag attend sa LAHAT ng pangangailangan ng sanggol. AKUIN na sana niya ang responsibilities ng isang mabuting ina. KUng patuloy siyang magpapakita ng SELFISH ways tulad ng pagpaPARTY party sa Fiamma Bar, masasabing isa siyang BAD EXAMPLE sa mga kababaihang ina!

    stop the suspense at drama at ipa-dna mo yung anak mo para alam yung daddy nya at iencourage mo magkarun sila ng relationship sa ama. kaya ka najontis marahil kasi naghahanap ka ng attention from a male figure at mahina ang self-esteem. at siguro humingi ka rin ng tips dun sa ibang single moms na yung mga anak napalaki ng maayos at hindi naging single moms. parenting is serious hindi lang pa-cool, kung gusto mo yung anak hindi magkakalat. but if you think okay yung nangyari sa yo kasi gumigimik ka pa naman, e di go.

    Andi should agree to have a DNA test . This is for the sake of the baby. Kasalanan mo kaya gustong makasiguro nii Albie na kanya nga ang baby at hindi kay Ejercito. Forget about your pride think of the baby, ang cute cute pa naman.

    magiging katulad din niya ang anak niya pag di siya tumigil nang ginagawa niya ngayon. hindi na siya natuto. 21 na siya ay isip bata pa rin siya. akala niya ay teen-ager pa rin siya at walang anak. move on and make yourself a good mother to your daughter. remember babae din ang anak mo at sana ay hwag maging ina rin sa murang edad na hindi kasal.

    wag mong gayahin ang style ng nanay mo sa pagiging parent nya andi..kunin mo lang yung maganda, but also open your mind and your eyes.. and ask God for guidance... baka pag totally ginaya mo mom mo, gusto mo yung anak mo maging gaya mo din na nabuntisan at binubogbog ng boyfriend at a young age... trust me it doesn't have to be that way again! look to God for guidance above all.. improve your generation andi... i believe you can do it..

    once you become a mother, even though you're 21, you're not expected to still gimik gimik, hindi na yun ang priority mo... ngayon that you're older, you should be able to determine as well if what your mother is teaching you is still right.. hindi porket mother mo sya eh perfect sya at alam na nya lahat ang tama... example na lang din dyan ang nanay ni albie, doesn't mean that everythng she does is right when it comes to her son... same din yan sa'yo andi, hindi porke sinabi ng mommy mong gumimik ka rin, doesn't mean na tama din sya.. you also have to think of your health isipin mo para din sa kapakanan ng anak mo ang maging healthy ka.. tigil mo na yang mga bisyo mo para sa anak mo..

    There is no need to assure the child who the father is. If your child loves and trust you , she does not need to have a DNA test to prove who her father is because she believes her mum. The child will never grow up having doubts unless there are people who approaches the child and maliciously ask her kung sino ang tunay na tatay nya! The need for DNA test is only necessitated when the mother does not know who the father is - kung may ibang sex partners sya.In the case of Andi , she was sleeping with her first boyfriend- not with multiple partners.

    A lot of people here might agree with Andi not to have a DNA test, but for me for the sake of the child she should. DNA test is not only to prove who the father is it is also for the child to assure who thier father is. Andi wont be the one to suffer kundi yong anak nya dahil dadalhin yan nang bata ang question at doubt for the rest of her life not for Andi's life or Albie's life. When a woman sleep with different guy and the last guy is the person they last sleep with it does not mean they are the father. There are woman out there who sleep with more than one guy in one day, but in different time. Watch a court show or Maury's show in you tube. You will see what I mean. DNA test is not for the parents its for the kids to give them that asurance and for them to know who thier real father is.

    Hindi ginagamit ang pagiging ina nya ni Andi para matone down ang accusation sa kanya. Ang writer ang pumili ng subject at topic. Kaya pinili si Andi dahil hot issue sya ngayon at single mother. Wag mong bigyan ng malisya ang storya. May public interest malaman kung anong hitsura ng anak nya at how she handles being a single mother. Natural mahal ni Andi ang anak nya. Hindi nya kailangang gamitin ito para ma tone down ang accusation sa kanya. Walang kaso naisampa sa kanya. Ang akusasyon ay akusasyon lamang na walang prueba. Libelous pa ito. Hindi nya kailangang idefensa ang sarili nya dahil revengeful act lamang ito ng isang limelight seeking na ina para makagantii sa INAAKALA niyang posibleng mastermind. Lahat ito akala. Hindi ito justice kasi sa paghuhusga nyo at ni Rina kayo ang tumatayong mga hukom. Binigyan nyo na ng parusa ang sanggol at si Andi kahit wala kayong proof. That's the worse of all!
