“Because Jake and Guitar are perfect with each other as both believe in superior quality and both dare to be great,” says Guitar exec Andrew Le Paul Tsai.
Off cam, Jake reveals he has called it quits with his model girlfriend, Sara Grace Kelley. “She’s very special to me but mahirap yung long distance love affair kasi she’s based in New York as a model,” he says. “There are issues that become bigger kasi nga it’s hard to fix things kung over the phone lang kayo nag-uusap. But she remains to be the most special girl in my life and also my best friend kahit wala na kami for three months now. We parted naman as friends and I do still miss her.”
After “Pasion de Amor” that has just ended, Jake is all set to do another project for ABS-CBN. He also plans to go back to the States to take up more acting lessons. He was in New York more than a year ago. “What I studied there is more of theater acting,” he says. “This time, I want to study in Los Angeles where the lessons be on film and TV acting. I will either go the Lee Strasberg Film Institute or Stella Adler Academy of Acting. I’m like a sponge absorbing everything. ‘Pasion de Amor’ ran for nine months and I think I deserve a break so I can go back to acting studies.”
