Mariel Padilla confirmed that her husband, Sen. Robin Padilla, has decided not to seek another elective post in the 2028 elections, citing moments when she feels the public "doesn't deserve" the actor-politician. She emphasized that their lifestyle has remained unchanged since Robin entered the Senate. "We don't have a new car since Robin won, we don't have a new house, we don't have any new thing that is the fruit of Robin's being a senator," she said. Mariel added that she views her husband more as a public servant than a politician. "I still believe that Robin is not a politician. Robin, from day one, wants to help. I feel that the title for Robin is a public servant. He's always saying that because he gets slowed down by things," Mariel said. He has already decided, he will not run anymore. He doesn't want to.
