Eula joins The Half Sisters

MANILA, Philippines - Viewers of GMA Network’s The Half Sisters will have all the more reason to stay glued on the Afternoon Prime series as Eula Valdez joins the cast and brings an interesting twist to  the story.

Eula plays Ysabel Zuñiga, the rich haciendera who saves Benjie (Jomari Yllana) from an accident that left him suffering from post-traumatic experience. She will do anything to keep Benjie.

Eula says she is thrilled to join the cast of the top-rating series and to work again with director Mark Reyes. “Excited ako to work with direk Mark Reyes again whom I worked with the first time I transferred to GMA via Kamandag years ago.” 

She is also delighted to share the screen with her good friend Jean Garcia. They last worked in the network’s Pinoy version of the Koreanovela All About Eve in 2009. 

Director Mark couldn’t be prouder of the program’s success since its pilot airing last year. He is happy for the Filipinos’ overwhelming support for his program.

“A good script and a great cast. That is the formula of The Half Sisters. From its unique premise to its unpredictable plot twists and sympathetic characters in complicated story arcs, is what makes the show the No. 1 daytime drama. And things get more exciting as Eula as Ysabel joins the already stellar cast led by Jean, Jomari, Gloria Romero, Barbie Forteza, Thea Tolentino, Derrick Monasterio and Andre Paras. The iconic rivalry of Jean and Eula will once again be enjoyed by the audiences in the next chapter of the consistent top-rating afternoon prime show of GMA.”

Meanwhile, The Half Sisters is still the top daytime drama soap nationwide, according to Nielsen TV Audience Measurement.

The series remains the program of choice of viewers not only in its bailiwick Mega Manila and Urban Luzon, but across National Urban Philippines

Also in the cast are Ryan Eigenmann, Vaness del Moral and Mel Martinez.
