WATCH: Dingdong Dantes, Marian Rivera on rumored political plans

MANILA, Philippines — Does Dingdong Dantes have political plans? Is Marian Rivera ready to become a politician's wife?

During a recent press con for Dingdong and wife Marian Rivera’s launch as new Cignal ambassadors, the couple was asked these questions and here is what they said.

“I love my family so much. I love my work as an actor. And I also value my career. Ang siguro ang dapat na tanong d’yan, ‘Kailangan ba?' I think that is something that I should answer by myself alone,” Dingdong said.

In earlier press interviews, Marian said she is willing to support her husband’s rumored political ambitions. During the press con, when Marian was asked if she is willing to enter politics as wife of a politician, she quipped: “Huh? Ano ba ‘yang mga tinatanong n’yo sa’kin?"

Dingdong has been rumored to be interested in politics since based on reports, he is studying the same Public Administration course which Batangas Rep. Vilma Santos and Ormoc City Mayor Richard Gomez reportedly took at the Open University of the University of the Philippines as preparation for their political career.

Dingdong and Marian, also fondly called “DongYan,” have now taken on an even bigger role as they pledge to become the new faces of Cignal Prepaid from pay TV provider Cignal. The contract signing was held last February 26 at Solaire.

Leading in the era of high-definition quality channels, Cignal has continually proven its strong market presence in the Philippine pay TV market by accumulating at least 1.8 million subscribers to date.

Since its launch back in 2009, the company has delivered unique, diverse, and substantial pay TV channels to cater to its audiences’ needs. It has maintained its number one status in having the most number of channels, with the widest selection of genres to offer. Cignal exclusive premium international channels include BBC Earth HD, Disney XD, and FX HD. Cignal also manages channels such as PBA Rush, Hyper, Colours and Sari Sari. — Video by Deni Rose M.
