Erich Gonzales:
Healthier and happier
By ALEXANDRA DAYRIT
Erich Gonzales is gorgeous. Seeing her in person
for the first time, I felt like I was meeting a living
doll. She’s also living the life – with a successful
TV show alongside her on-screen and real-life
leading man Daniel Matsunaga. What’s next for
Erich Gonzales? Well, weights for a start. Daniel,
being a fitness enthusiast and the cover of
Muscle & Fitness Philippines this month, has
been coaching Erich and it’s the cutest thing ever.
Talk about #goals!
Starting her showbiz
career when she won Star
Circle Quest at the young
age of 14, Erich Gonzales
is no stranger to hard
work. Between then and
now, she has appeared in
countless projects both
on primetime and the
silver screen. She is well
known and loved for her
acting talent but not
many people know she
has also been working
hard on her health and
fitness. She shares her
journey towards holistic
health and happiness
with us.
Count your blessings
“It’s a blessing to appear alongside Daniel on
Be My Lady,” Erich gushes. “It’s a very light and
positive show and we are very thankful to the
viewers because of their very warm reception.
The viewers are the reason why we are the
most-watched daytime teleserye. Our run has
been extended twice already,”
“The story also focuses on a Filipina and
a foreigner falling in love and perhaps raising
a family. It’s a fun show. We enjoy working on
it,” she adds.
“We are very grateful to be given the
opportunity to work together. We get to spend
time with each other during breaks. Even
though we are super tired, it helps that you’re
with a loved one,” she claims. “We inspire each
other. We support each other. When he has
difficulty with some scenes like what to say or
how to deliver the lines, I help him. He also
helps me.”
