Dimples Romana Resumes Hosting Career With ‘Gud Morning Kapatid’

Kapamilya actress and celebrity entrepreneur Dimples Romana is also now a kapatid, as she officially signed a contract with the TV5 network to co-host the daily morning talk show “Gud Morning Kapatid,” beginning today, Monday, Nov. 13.

Romana will be working with Chiqui Roa-Puno, Maoui David, Justin Quirino and Jes delos Santos in hosting the program, which hopes to spread positive vibes while keeping Filipino audiences informed about the latest news, trends and developments.

OneNews.PH touched base with the versatile actress prior to her contract signing and asked her thoughts about resuming her hosting career on the day she was born. “I’m so excited. Alam mo (You know), I feel like my birthday is bringing me plenty of huge blessings,” she said.

Romana turns 39 today, Nov. 13. She expressed her joy to finally pursue other television projects outside of her acting commitments with ABS-CBN, which was made possible due to its joint entertainment ventures with TV5. 

“Now that I’m able to do more projects outside of the Kapamilya network, now that I’m also a kapatid, it makes me feel very, very good on the inside, knowing that I’m welcomed by not just new faces like yourselves, but also former kapamilyas that I used to work with a lot,” she said.

Many of the ABS-CBN television series where Romana stars in have also been airing on TV5 since the two networks formalized their partnership. These include shows like “Huwag Kang Mangamba,” “Viral Scandal,” and most recently “The Iron Heart.”

Romana is also not new to hosting. In 2011, she co-hosted an informative show for entrepreneurs called “Kabuhayang Swak na Swak” alongside Bobby Yan. It was aired on ABS-CBN-related channels until 2021.

For “Gud Morning Kapatid,” Romana, who is also a wife and a mother of three, will be helming a segment called “May Bahay,” which is about home improvement tips on a budget. She will also share some practical parenting advice on “Smart Parenting.”

Romana hopes to bring the kind of energy that helps people feel lighter when they tune in to their show every morning. “I acknowledge that we are all dealing with something in our lives, myself included, I’ve had my fair share and I still do,” she said.

“But, at the end of the day, I feel like somehow one of my gifts is that no matter what I’m going through, I can make myself feel at ease and that extends to the people I talk to. So, I hope to bring that kind of energy to ‘Gud Morning Kapatid,’” she added partly in Filipino.
