Age does not matter for Leren Bautista and Ricci Rivero.
Basketball player Ricci Rivero and beauty queen-councilor Leren Bautista speak about their age gap and their relationship.
During their first interview together on Philippine television, Los Baños councilor Leren Mae Bautista and basketball player Ricci Rivero opened up about their love story. In that interview, they shared that their first meeting was during the feeding program Ricci organized for his birthday last year.
To recall, Rivero confirmed his relationship with Bautista in October 2023.
As much as we all know, the beauty queen is the older one and she is older thanh im by five years. Speaking about those who mock their age difference with some calling her his “Tita”, Leren quipped, “Natatawa lang ako minsan kasi kapag sinasabi nilang tita daw po ako ni Ricci, sabi ko, ‘Ate lang.'”
However, despite their five-year age gap, she stressed that they understand each other. She even shared that even though she is the one who is older, in terms of maturity, Rivero is a step ahead of her.
“Ang level of maturity ni Ricci, parang sabi ko nga, parang mas mature pa siya sa akin pero ako yung mas matanda.”
As for Ricci, he accordingly did not expect that they would reach this point after that first meeting in an outreach program. He is supportive of her work as a public servant and this is something she is thankful for about her boyfriend.
In their relationship, one good thing about it is that they are both willing to know each other. The need to not pretend in order to be liked is one thing that made a good start in their relationship.
Their relationship did not quite have a good start with the public. The speculations of Ricci and Leren’s relationship started when they were spotted together at an outreach program and Rivero came from a highly publicized relationship and split with Andrea Brillantes.
