Andrea DeCruz and Pierre Png reflect on her liver transplant, their marriage and overcoming fears

Andrea DeCruz and Pierre Png reflect on her liver transplant, their marriage and overcoming fears The celebrity couple reflect on their 23-year marriage and DeCruz's life-saving liver transplant in a recent episode of On The Red Dot. In 2002, actress-entrepreneur Andrea DeCruz suffered from liver failure and had to undergo a liver transplant procedure, which saw her now-husband, Pierre Png, donating part of his liver. 24 years on, the couple reflect on how it has changed the life of DeCruz, 52, in an episode of CNA Insider's On The Red Dot. The episode, uploaded online on Monday (Aug 10), saw the couple being asked how they would spend their last day alive. Among the things DeCruz mentioned were carpentry and conquering her fear of heights. "After the transplant, the whole realisation that I almost lost my life really hit me. I've not tried to conquer my fear of heights, or do anything extreme because I cherish my life more," said DeCruz in the episode. The episode then followed DeCruz as she tried to descend Split Rock Summit – an attraction at Rainforest Wild Adventure. After conquering it, Png challenged De Cruz to take on the Giant Swing at Skypark Sentosa by AJ Hackett with him – a challenge she agreed to. "Having Pierre by my side is everything. The courage always comes from him," said DeCruz. "If this were my last day and he asked me to do something extreme, I would do it with him because I have him to hang on to for dear life." The episode also saw the couple looking back on their 23-year-long marriage, while eating durian. When asked by Png if she thought they "would last this long", DeCruz replied before breaking down in tears: "Honestly, I never really gave it any thought. When we got married, I definitely hoped that we would last a lifetime until our last day on earth. Like I always mention to you, that if I go, I hope it will be going with you too, right?" DeCruz later added that when she was ill, she "put a lot of faith" in Png "because he's the best person to have around when the storm hits". "When he's calm, I'm calm. I draw a lot of strength from him, and I think that helps in anyone's recovery process," she said. Watch the full episode below.
