Liza Soberano undergoes new surgery

MANILA, Philippines — Kapamilya actress Liza Soberano has undergone another successful surgery in her finger fractured last August during the shoot of her now concluded series “Bagani.”  

In her brother’s Instagram account, Justin Soberano posted a photo in his Instagram story showing the finger of Liza with a metal attached to it. 

“Very happy that the surgery went great! To my brave sister get well soon we love you so much!” Justin wrote. 

It can be recalled that her finger injury is the main reason why Liza backed out from the Darna role. 

“I’ve been undergoing therapy. I had surgery twice na po. We’ve been trying to fix it, but lately, these past few weeks, we’ve decided na maybe it’s best if I don’t push through with it, because baka maging hindrance lang po siya for me to be able to do the stunts properly,” Liza revealed last April.

In her previous interview last August, Liza told members of the press during the “Bagani” thanksgiving party that her finger got injured by co-actor Justin Cuyugan during the taping of the series.  

“I got injured in the middle of the fight scene. Kasi when we were doing the scene, I guess we were really feeling it and medyo nagmamadali din kasi kami dahil umuulan and we have to get the scene before it starts raining,” Liza said.

“We were able to practice the scene before we took it. But in the middle of the scene, I guess the emotions took over. Accidents happen and natamaan ‘yung kamay ko nung sword. It got fractured, but it's fine now,” she added. 

The search for the next Darna continues after ABS-CBN and Star Cinema opened the role to the public.
