Sharon Cuneta Goes Silent Online
SHARON CUNETA – Megastar Sharon Cuneta has once again surprised her fans after announcing she will be disconnecting from social media to focus on herself.
Sharon Cuneta has once again decided to take a step back from the digital spotlight. On August 28, the veteran actress and singer revealed on Instagram that she will be unreachable for the next few days, except to her family, as part of her much-needed break from social media and outside distractions.
She wrote, “Hi, everyone! I will be taking a rest from Social Media and my phone will be off. I will only use the one phone I use for my family. No contact with friends and co-workers—family lang talaga. I need to detox. So I will be out of touch for several days. My mind and emotions are gonna take a vacation from everything extra! Love you all. See you again soon! God bless you always. 💖💖💖🤗🥰😘🙏🏻”
This is not the first time the 59-year-old Kapamilya star has taken a digital detox. Just last year, Cuneta went offline for a month while recovering from a hip condition. At that time, she also reflected on the negative effects of social media on her well-being.
In a previous post, she admitted, “For two months I really did nothing but check on myself. I detoxed from social media. My God this is so embarrassing. I realized because of social media I started becoming somebody I didn’t like at all. I started becoming another person I would really despise.”
Cuneta also recalled how she used to react to online criticism during the early years of Twitter. “In the beginning, the Twitter days, parang feeling mo mommy ka na pinapagalitan mo like ‘ano ‘yan why are you talking like this its oh my God bastos ka!’ Now I realize especially when people would hurt me with their words my tendency as human being is to get mad because hurt people hurt people and I so regret that I should’ve been my own self that would rise above that,” she confessed.
Sharon Cuneta’s latest decision to go offline comes after proudly celebrating the accomplishments of her daughters, KC Concepcion and Frankie Pangilinan. Earlier this month, KC was reinstated as a World Food Programme (WFP) Goodwill Ambassador, marking another milestone in her advocacy work.
