Eva Darren opened up about the FAMAS Awards mishap that took place last May. Darren was slated to present an award alongside Tirso Cruz III, but she was replaced at the last minute, leaving her feeling embarrassed and distressed.
Darren shared, "Mamayang konti Nakita ko si Tirso nagmamadali ng umakyat, Eh hindi naman ako tinatawag, pag tapos daan ng daan umiikot pa mga floor directors pagkatapos ina-announce na, Eh yung sinasabi ng partner niya na singer eh Dialogue ko yun, binasa ko yun, nasa script na pinadala sa akin memoryado ko, …. Hindi pa Ako kumikibo Baka nagkamali lang sabi ko, Mamayang konti aba'y pangalawang dialogue ko yun ah, Nine-nerbiyos na ako, sabi ko ah wala na pinalitan na akong tuluyan."
She continued, "Sabi ko kay Divina Valencia 'Mare alis na kami, sabi ko sa apo ko you call your mom We'll go home pagkatapos Kasi parang gusto ko na mag lupasay doon, kasi nahihiya ako. Maraming nakakaalam, mga kamag-anak nag-aabang, pinapanood ‘yung FAMAS. Sabi ko, ‘Mare, pasensya na, nanginginig na ako, aalis na ako kasi nahihiya ako,’” she said.
Darren recounted the aftermath, saying, "Pagkatapos noon the next day madaming tumatawag nahihiya nga ako kasi hindi ko talaga sinasagot eh, tinatawagan si Fernando yung anak kong panganay, tinatawagan si Carmela yung pangalawa kong anak, eh ayaw ko na makipag-usap."
She added with emotion, "Sabihin mo darling… sabi ko sa anak ko pasensya na talagang 'Napahiya ako. Ang sakit,'” she tearfully expressed. “Masakit talaga Ewan ko nanginig talaga ako,” she said, noting that she couldn’t blame her children, especially her son Fernando, who spoke out on social media about the incident.
When asked if she anticipated the controversy, Darren admitted, "Hindi ko Akalain, Hindi ko alam Grabe ganon pala ang Social Media."
As for the apology from FAMAS, Darren confirmed, "Nag kapatawaran naman na, okay na."
On a positive note, Darren is set to make a comeback with an upcoming series under GMA, marking an exciting new chapter in her career.
