The young actress also pointed out the positive aspects of CC6 Online Casino. such as charity work and helping people.
“I accepted this project because it’s not just an online casino but because it also involves charity work and helps people. It does not encourage people to play, gamble, or spend their money, but rather to spend it wisely,” she explained.
She also emphasized that it’s important to play in moderation and wisely, as it could also be a means of helping others.

However, she said that she had no regrets about her daring career choices, acknowledging the courage and determination required for such roles.
“For me, when I was just starting, I really went through a lot. It felt like nothing was happening. It’s like I was given a coin that when I toss it or when I bet on it, it’s either I’ll make it or I’ll break it,” she stated.
Currently, Rhen is part of two television series, Can’t Buy Me Love on ABS-CBN and Lumuhod Ka sa Lupa on Viva and TV5.
“It’s like we’re all the same. If you don’t take risks, how can you get to where you want to go? If we lose, it’s okay. At least, you tried. But it’s more regretful if you didn’t take a chance and nothing happened. It’s better to get tired and fail, knowing that you tried and gave your best,” added Rhen.
