Ivana said that when their father passed away, she was forced to look for sources of income for her family.
“Nagtrabaho ako, nag-flyering ako, nagraraket para makatulong din sa pamilya. Dumating din yung time na wala akong naging raket kasi pangit ako,” she continued.
Ivana’s sister however refused to believe her story saying she was already pretty back then.
