The soap will be memorable for him as some kids really think he is a priest. "Kapag nakikita ako in public, nagmamano sila sa kamay ko. Nakakahiya nga. But more than that, the show really helped strengthen my faith in God kaya this is one of my favorite shows. We've featured so many inspiring stories in the course of the show at marami kaming naging malalaking guest stars. Even my wife (Marian Rivera), nanonood siya nito kasi nga very inspiring ang stories."
Will there be a possibility that Marian will be a guest in the show before it ends? "Actually, napag-usapan na namin talaga yan at okay naman sa kanya to be a part of the show kasi tapos na yung delicate first trimester of her pregnancy. But of course, it'll still depend on the condition of her pregnancy in the weeks to come."
But Marian will be part of the new show "Sunday Pinas Saya"? "Yes, but she'll just be a host. Every Sunday lang naman yon at hindi naman siya magsasayaw roon or sasali sa games. Siempre, iniingatan niya ang baby namin."
So how will he like "Pari Koy" to end? Will he return to being a priest? "Siempre, pipiliin ni Fr. Kokoy kung ano ang tama."
Which is? "Love. Pag-ibig sa Diyos. Pero mahirap talaga ang sitwasyon niya kasi may anak siya, David Remo as Pinggoy. But we've consulted some church authorities and according to them, hindi naman kasalanan ni Fr. Kokoy na may anak siya. It happened naman noong hindi pa siya nagpapari. So as of now, we don't know yet what will happen. We're still looking into some possibilities."
This week, Andrea Torres will join "Pari Koy" as an escort-girl and night club dancer who will be the mistress of Dingdong's dad played by Spanky Manikan. How Fr. Kokoy will affect and change the life of a sinner like Andrea is the gist of the show's story for the next two weeks.
