So rumors that they’re having problems in their relationship because of Geoff Eigenmann aren’t true? “No, okay kami. Wala kaming problema. We just want the best for each other.”
So how is he and Geoff now? “We’re okay. We’ve both moved on and I’d like to think friends pa rin kami.”
How did he feel when he was bashed on the net after he was interviewed about it in Startalk and he spoke so slowly people said he’s inarticulate? “Mabagal ako magsalita that time kasi nga pinag-iisipan ko ang sasabihin ko in a way na hindi ako makakasakit ng damdamin. I was also feeling very emotional at that point. Wala naman akong nararamdamang galit for Geoff. For me, I felt I just have to say it eh. But I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Kasi medyo nabigla ako, e, nang biglang interbyuhin ako about that. Kahit po ako nabigla sa sarili ko. I’d also like to say sorry to Geoff’s manager, Perry Lansigan. Pasensiya na. But the important thing sa nangyari is, ako, may natutunan ako. Sana lahat kami, may natutunan. And now, move on na.”
So what did he learn from what happened? “Sa akin na lang yon. Basta we all learn from our mistakes. Yes, I think, sana hindi na lang ako nagsalita. Pero hindi ako nagsisisi na nagsalita ako kasi ako ‘yon eh. Lahat ng tao, dumadaan sa ganoong stage eh. Bawat isa sa atin. Sa tingin ko, tama naman ang ginawa ko but, mas mabuti nga siguro, hindi na lang ako nagsalita.”
Would he be willing to work with Geoff in the future? “Why not? Pareho kaming kapuso. At sa’kin, wala na yun. Wala akong hinanakit.”
And what’s Kylie’s reaction to him over what happened? “Sa amin na lang sana yun. Basta marami kaming natutunan to help us be more mature. Puede sa ‘Kambal Sirena’ naman tayo? Happy kaming lahat na involved sa show as we’re rating very well and we get very positive reviews. And to think na nagi-start pa lang kami. Nagde-develop pa lang yung story, so lalo na kapag tumakbo na yung love story namin ng dalawang characters played by Louise. Nakakatuwa ang director namin, si Dondon Santos, dahil he succeeds in making the story truly more absorbing for the viewers with each episode.”
