Does Lotlot De Leon Talks Approve Of Daughter Janine Gutierrez' Relationship With Elmo Magalona?

LOTLOT DE LEON is thankful that after “Kambal Sirena” where she played the mom of Louise de los Reyes, she is quickly cast now as the mom of Kris Bernal in “Hiram na Alaala” that now airs after “My Destiny”. The show’s director Dominic Zapata praised Lotlot while she’s in front of us. “First time ko to work with her at napakagaling palang artista nitong si Lotlot,” says Direk Dom.

“Maganda kasi ang role ko at maganda rin ang show so I have to give my best,” she says. “My role has its own beautiful back story. Si Kris, anak ko at ni Alan Paule. Pero iniwan ko sila and then nakilala ko si Antonio Aquitania na naging siyang kinakasama ko. Parang totoong buhay ko, di ba? I also got separated from my children. Nagkaroon ako ng sarili kong buhay. Ang difference lang, kami ni Alan sa ‘Hiram na Alaala’, hindi naging maganda ang paghihiwalay namin. Nagkaroon ng malaking issue. E, in real life, wala akong ganoong problema.”

She now has another boyfriend, a Lebanese guy named Fred El Soury. “Two years na kami, but let’s not talk about him na lang kasi hindi naman siya showbiz. May pribado siyang buhay.”

Do her children approve of her new relationship? “My children are very intelligent. Alam naman nila ang sitwasyon at tanggap na nila ito.”

How about her eldest daughter Janine Gutierrez who’s now said to be playing beautiful music with Elmo Magalona? “Di ba dapat sila mismo ang tanungin nyo about that? But yes, nakikita ko si Elmong dumadalaw kay Janine. Lumalabas sila together. I think masaya naman sila pareho. Pero hindi pa sila umaamin officially, di ba? Ang dami kasing bashers sa social media who can really be mean. So siguro, silang dalawa, they want to enjoy each other’s company without anybody else na nakikialam.”

What does she think of Elmo for her daughter? “Okay naman. I know Elmo’s parents. (Pia Arroyo and the late Francis Magalona.) Wala pa si Elmo, kilala ko na sila. Si Monching at si Francis, nagkasama pa sa movie. Okay naman si Elmo. He’s a good boy. Magalang. Pero hindi ako nakikialam sa kanila kasi hindi na naman sila mga teenager.”
