Ai Ai De Las Alas Admits She Finds New Love In A Younger Non-Showbiz Guy

AI AI DE LAS ALAS is so happy over the positive comments for her first dramatic role in the Cinemalaya entry “Ronda”, where she plays a female cop patrolling the city at night while facing so many problems. “So far, lahat ng nakapanood, magaganda comments nila,” she says. “Iisa ang laging sinasabi ng director kong si Nick Olanka sa’kin while we're shooting, ‘Huwag kang maging artista. Huwag kang umarte rito.’ So kontrolado talaga lahat ng emotions ko. Pati pag-iyak ko, bawal malukot ang mukha, simpleng tumutulo lang ang luha ko. Andami ko kasing problems. Nawawala ang anak kong si Julian Trono, yung asawa kong si Mon Confiado nasa Dubai, yung hepe kong si Menggie Cobarrubias problema ko rin, nahuli ko ang addict na si Carlo Aquino pero inutos na pakawalan naman. Tapos, makikipag-break pa ko sa lover kong si Cesar Montano after yung huling chugihan namin sa hotel.”

She admits there’s a new man who’s making her happy. “Nasa getting to know stage pa lang kami, pero happy ako. Mas bata siya, pero non-showbiz kaya tahimik. Ayoko na magbigay ng detalye para manatiling tahimik.”

She sounds like she’s in love again. “Napakabait kasi niya, napakamaalalahanin, napaka-gentleman. At okay naman sila ng mga anak ko. Nababaitan sa kanya. O, hanggang doon na lang.”

Will she take him to the gala premiere of “Ronda” tonight at 6 PM at the CCP? “Naku, hindi. Baka siya pa ang mapag-usapan at hindi ang ‘Ronda’, so huwag na.”
