Addressing her medical condition, Diamond Star Maricel Soriano has decided to seek medical treatment in Singapore.
This was relayed to us exclusively as Soriano flew to Singapore on Sunday, 1 June, to seek professional help and address her spinal arthritis problem, which has been plaguing her of late.
Recall that last April, many noticed Soriano had difficulty walking, which was why her guests in her post-birthday celebration came to where she was seated to greet her.
Later, in her YouTube channel, Soriano explained what had been bugging her physically.
She unabashedly revealed that she’s suffering from arthritis in her spine, which limits her mobility. She disclosed that she was undergoing physical therapy, which included aquatic activities like walking and stretching.
“When your body talks, you listen. As they say, what you eat today will walk and talk tomorrow,” Soriano said in her vlog.

Sharon Cuneta, Julia Montes in an acting showdown
Megastar Sharon Cuneta and Prime Actress Julia Montes shattered the hearts of viewers with their gut-wrenching revelation scene in Saving Grace: The Untold Story - The Last Hope.
Anna (Montes) finally discovered the truth that Miranda (Cuneta) is her real mother who abandoned her as a child.
The Kapamilya stars put on the ultimate acting showdown in ABS-CBN’s heavy drama, which is down to its final three weeks, during their highly anticipated confessional and their most heartbreaking scene yet. After years of deep resentment, Anna vented all her frustrations against Miranda, who was equally guilt-ridden for all the pain she had inflicted on her daughter.
Viewers should also watch out for more highly emotional twists in the series when Anna learns that Miranda’s days are numbered as she struggles with her life-threatening illness. The series will also highlight the “battle of mothers” as Helena (Janice De Belen), Anna’s adoptive mother and Miranda’s long-time rival, both fight against all odds to win back Anna’s trust.
Meanwhile, the scandalous kidnapping incident involving Grace (Zia Grace) will reach greater heights when Anna and Sarah (Jennica Garcia) come face-to-face in a heated argument that will ultimately lead to life-changing legal implications.
Will Anna find it in her heart to forgive Miranda? Will Miranda and Helena finally resolve their long-standing rift?
