MANILA, Philippines – Stories about infidelity have been told time and again in movies and television shows, and at the center of many of them is the scorned woman, the betrayed wife who always seems to be seeking revenge.
This is the character Jodi Sta. Maria is bringing to life in the upcoming series The Broken Marriage Vow, which is set to premiere on January 24 on multiple ABS-CBN platforms.
