Matteo dismisses rumors on wedding plans
As the new ambassador of
the Sun Life Prosperity Card,
actor Matteo Guidicelli talked
about setting realistic goals for
his future at the brand’s press
conference last Friday, August
20.
Because of this, Matteo,
who has also ventured into
entrepreneurship, was asked by
reporters if he and girlfriend,
singer-actress
Sarah
Geronimo,
have discussed about getting
married already.
“Hindi pa naman. Siyempre
pinagdaanan ‘yan but you know,
we have to be realistic with
ourselves. Being realistic is very,
very important. The day will
come, kumbaga,” he answered.
Addressing
rumors
that
they already have wedding plans,
Matteo said, “May tsismis nga na
buntis siya eh. Hindi po, ma’am.
26, 28, (their ages) the time will
come I guess.”
While he chose to keep it to
himself as to when he wants to
settle down, Matteo said, “Getting
married in that chapter of life is
something very serious, di ba, it’s
not a joke. It will come. I think we
shouldn’t pressure ourselves or
anything. It will come.”
Earlier, Matteo had also
commented on the issue that
he was not able to perform
well in the recently-concluded
Cobra Ironman 70.3 Asia-Pacifi c
triathlon held in Cebu as Sarah
was not around unlike last year.
In a report by ABS-CBN News,
Matteo said that Sarah was
abroad, taking a vacation then.
“I only have two weeks
of
training sa Ironman, eh,
‘Yung goal talaga namin, to break
fi ve hours sa Ironman pero ‘yung
natapos ko, fi ve hours and 30
minutes.
Okay na but sana next
year, mabreak
namin ‘yung fi ve
hours. It was better than last
year
also. Masaya
naman
‘yung Ironman,” he said. •
