Sunshine Dizon
It was just this May when the Encantadia star packed up her bags and became a certified ABS-CBN artist. She had been with GMA for 25 years prior to leaving, but she shared that there’s no bad blood between her and the network.
She is also looking forward to reunite with her Encantadia sisters who have all moved networks before her.
True enough to the concept of a healthy change, she referred to her switch as a “a new season in my life, a new chapter in my career.”

Richard Yap
After 10 years with ABS-CBN, Yap departed the network after receiving as the “practical” means to continue his thriving career.
“Others are still starting out, while GMA does everything by itself, so it’s the practical choice,” he had shared.
Maja Salvador

Adding to the list of brave moves, she also departed from an 18-year relationship with Star Magic to go on and star in TV5’s Sunday Noontime Live and Niña Nińo.
