Celebrity couple Cristine Reyes and Marco Gumabao revealed the qualities that made them fall in love with each other.
Many people might find Cristine and Marco’s relationship unexpected. One factor was Cristine’s past statements about Marco. In an interview, when asked if she sees herself having a relationship with Marco, she said she just wants them to be friends because of their six-year age gap.
However, early last year, the couple shared their sweet photos confirming their relationship. They received love and support from their fellow celebrities and their fans.
In a recent interview on Karen Davila’s YouTube channel, Cristine Reyes and Marco Gumabao generously shared their love story.
The actor admitted that it was also unexpected for them. They first worked together in 2015 and he would still call Cristine “Ate AA” but even before, he already had a crush on the actress.
It all started when they became neighbors during the pandemic. They reconnected as friends and became workout buddies. “Hindi namin alam na yung feelings na pala namin and nawo-workout,” Marco said.
Cristine also admitted that she had apprehensions as she was once married. She was very cautious and it was unexpected because she never had thought that they would end up together.
When asked what made him fall in love with Cristine, Marco said that he just felt it in his heart. “When you know, you know,” he said. He added that the timing they had was really good. Marco said that he was ready to be in a relationship because he had matured.
For the actor, Cristine came into his life at the right time and he needed her in his life. He added that they could be themselves with each other without any apprehensions and awkwardness. “Click lang talaga ang ugali namin,” he said.
“I never thought that I would end up with Marco,” Cristine said. She said that her boyfriend is not a typical guy. The actress meant that Marco was not as aggressive as how other men she knew before. “Si Marco with me, ano siya eh, very yung gentle,” she said and jokingly added, “Little did I know.”
