Upon semi-moving to Europe because of husband Billy Crawford’s reignited career after winning in Danse avec les Stars, France’s version of the dance reality competition franchise Dancing with the Stars, Coleen is slowly finding her footing in the continent they are also calling as a possible new home.
Coleen shared that her child had substantial milestones while in Europe. “When we brought him here, nakiki-upo pa siya sa plane, pero ngayon isang tao na talaga siya! Nakakatuwa iyong wonder niya.”
She is also learning French already because she revealed that their small family will see themselves staying in the country for some time.
The holidays are free for the Crawford family in Europe. They decided to head back to the Philippines for the holidays before embarking on Billy’s second wind in European stardom.
“We’ll be there for Christmas although I think we will be back again (in France) soon. For a long time again,” she said.
“But at least, we’ll be back for Christmas because we do miss the Philippines. We want to see friends and family. Iba pa rin talaga yung Pilipinas for Christmas. It is the best in the world.”
It is like Billy and Coleen are getting the best of both worlds in terms of their careers. As they are en route to Manila this month, we can expect Billy back soon in Tropang LOL on TV5, plus resume his other commitments with VIVA.
Coleen, on the other hand, has a major project as the theatrical release for her horror Cinemalaya film, Kaluskos, is ongoing. Besides this, she is slowly being discovered by the French. She has been steadily growing in partnerships with brands there while still remaining active with her career in Manila.
The demand for Coleen in the business is stable as ever but she plans to give way and support her husband. She said, “There are a lot of opportunities for him and I want to support him ‘cause, you know, this is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. And if I have to adjust, if I have to sacrifice, I’ll definitely support him. But, we’ll definitely go home din to the Philippines and we have commitments din there and every time sana we’re working.”
