Mccoy de Leon recently shared a vulnerable side of himself in an interview with Ogie Diaz, revealing a period of intense personal struggle, including a time when he wanted to end his life.
However, his love for his daughter, Felize, became his anchor, motivating him to move forward.
As he continues to navigate the entertainment industry, Mccoy finds purpose in his acting roles while balancing personal challenges and fatherhood.
Mccoy admitted that there was a point where he felt overwhelmed and ready to give up. He kept his struggles private, battling intense judgment from the public.
“There was a time na nasa edge na ako ng window, na ayoko nah,” McCoy confessed.
He felt broken, questioning his purpose and even considering risking his life.
In this moment of crisis, he turned to a higher power, pleading for guidance: “Lord kung sakaling, ano ang plano mo sa akin ikaw na bahala.”
Amidst his despair, De Leon experienced a turning point.
He described seeing an image in the sky: a baby and a man.
He immediately recognized the baby as his daughter, Felize.
This vision became a powerful sign, a beacon of hope that resonated deeply within him.
“Lord, meron ka pa palang plano para sa akin” McCoy realized.
“And I know that is my Felize. Di ko na maitanggi yun.” he added.
Mccoy emphasized the profound impact Felize has had on his life.
The thought of his daughter growing up without a father was unbearable.
“Ayaw kong lumaki sya na walang tatay,” he declared.
Every time he sees her, his spirits lift, and his determination to overcome his struggles is renewed.
He emphasizes the strength he draws from his faith and shares how childhood memories of prayer helped him cope with life’s challenges and regain hope.
His journey is a testament to the power of love and the enduring bond between a parent and child.
It’s a reminder that even when facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles, there is always hope to be found.
Fatherhood became McCoy’s primary source of motivation. Seeing his daughter, Felize’s smile and knowing that she depended on him made him realize the importance of continuing his life and striving to be a better person.
