NAG-FILE si Sunshine Dizon ng affidavit of desistance sa mga kasong isinampa niya laban sa dating asawa niyang si Timothy Tan, para sa kanilang mga anak, noong Huwebes.
Naririto ang press statement ng aktres:
“Today I withdrew the criminal complaints I filed against Tim for Concubinage and VAWC, and I have asked the City Prosecutor to dismiss the cases.
“My decision to have the cases dismissed was the result of soul-searching on my part as well as an agreement between Tim and I that we would put our two children’s best interest above everything else. I realized that pursuing criminal case against their father could potentially traumatize my children and diminish their father’s stature in their eyes.
The children have a close, loving relationship with their father and I do not wish to get in the way of that.
“I reiterate that Tim and I have not reconciled, but we are doing our best to be great parents. Hence, it would be completely normal for us to continue to be seen together, especially during school events involving our children.
“Everything that Tim and I do together from hereon is simply for the fulfillment of our obligations as parents, but not as spouses anymore. In fact, I am preparing to file a petition to have our marriage dissolved. This is because I have not given up the fight for my own rights, and this fight I will continue in the proper venue at the proper time and without sacrificing my children’s emotional and mental well-being.
“For now, I am focused on the welfare of my children. I want to assure them that rven if their parents cease to become husband and wife, we will always be their doting mom and dad.”
May supporters si Sunshine na na-disappoint sa desisyon niyang ito dahil naalala nila ang sinabi niya noong una na hindi magbabago ang desisyon niya at tuluy-tuloy lang ang laban. May nag-akala pa nga na napakiusapan si Sunshine ng father-in-law niya na iurong ang kaso dahil binigyan siya ng bahay.
Pero may mga nakaunawa rin naman sa aktres lalo’t dalawang anak niya ang involved. Saka, sabi niya, tuloy pa rin ang personal niyang laban sa dating asawa. Binanggit nga niya na sa proper time ay kikilos siya.
Ikinatuwa rin ng supporters ni Sunshine ang sinabi niya na walang balikang mangyayari sa kanila at pawawalang-bisa na niya ang kanilang kasal.
Nakakatawa na inaabangan kung mangyayari rin sa Afternoon Prime na Ika-6 Na Utos ang bagong pangyayari sa married life ni Sunshine. Sa story ng teleserye nina Sunshine at Gabby Concepcion, nahuli pa lang ni Emma (Sunshine) ang pagloloko ni Rome (Gabby), mahaba-haba pa ang eksenang gaganti at magdedemanda ang una sa huli.
