AFTER HIS RELATIONSHIPS with Heart Evangelista and Erich Gonzalez, Daniel Matsunaga admits he now has a new inspiration in his life, a Polish model named Karolina Pisarek. “Yes, I’m inspired. She is really very, very special, but I prefer our relationship to be very private this time. Kasi before, I was very open, then masyadong pinag-usapan ng tao and it affected our relationship.”
We all know his love affair with Erich didn’t end well and they’re still not in good terms up to now. “I learned so much from my past relationships. So to avoid problems, I just want to maintain our relationship as more quiet, more of a secret na lang between us. So if you don’t mind, I prefer not to talk about her na lang para mas tahimik kaysa yung super exposed sa public.”
But they’re in a long distance relationship since Karolina is not based here in Manila. “Even if she’s not here, we always give time to each other. Siempre mahirap, kasi nga LDR, but you can still make it work kung mahal mo talaga ang isang tao.”
He’s just happy that both his love life and his career are currently doing well. He is in the cast of the special Halloween presentation, “Spirit of the Glass 2, The Haunted”, that opens tomorrow in theaters nationwide, where he is paired with Cristine Reyes, directed by Jose Javier Reyes.
He is also in the cast of Cineko Productions’ romantic comedy, “Fallback”, where he plays the third wheel in the relationship of Rhian Ramos and Zanjoe Marudo, directed by Jason Laxamana, to open on November 15. And he’s also currently shooting the Metro Manila filmfest entry, “Meant to Beh”, with Vic Sotto, Dawn Zulueta and Andrea Torres, directed by Chris Martinez, opening on Christmas Day.
