This is what Willie said:

“Ang last day of my contract ay October 15. Maybe October 12 will be the last show ng Wowowillie.”

Willie said that he will be taking a break from his showbiz commitments for a few months, a year, or even longer:

“So, hindi po para malungkot. Ganyan talaga ang buhay. Kasi kailangan ko rin ng time.”

Willie also revealed that he submitted a resignation letter last May 17:

“Yun lang po para matapos na ang haka-haka.”
