Marco Gumabao opened up about his rumored romance with Cristine Reyes and said that while the two of them share something “special,” he currently does not want to put any label on it because it “puts a lot of pressure” on a relationship.
Gumabao and Reyes sparked dating speculations after they were spotted together in Siargao, and were seen holding hands while out in Makati. The actor was then asked about their relationship status during a press conference of the TV series “Kurdapya” last Thursday, March 23.
“Basta you’ll find out when the time is right,” he answered. “Hindi naman sa hindi pa right time [ngayon] pero siguro, we’re just enjoying ‘yung time namin na kami muna, na wala munang nakikiusyoso.” (It’s not like it’s not the right time yet, but maybe we’re just enjoying our time with just the two of us, with no one meddling.)
Gumabao continued that he prefers to keep his love life private because he does not want other people chiming in on his relationship. Gumabao also described the actress as a “wife material,” adding that there’s nothing wrong with dating a single parent.
“Happy naman kami sa tahimik na buhay,” he stated. “Hindi naman kami nagde-deny ni Cristine. Of course, napag-usapan na rin namin to, we’re not denying anything… Parang mas masarap lang na private at walang nakiki-ano.”

Ayoko munang magsabi ng mga label-label na ganyan (I do not want to say anything about labels just yet),” he added. “For me, labels put a lot of pressure on your relationship. Basta ako, kaming dalawa, happy kami.” (The two of us are happy.)
Reyes, who shares her daughter Amarah with her ex-husband Ali Khatibi, has yet to publicly speak up about her rumored romance with Gumabao as of this writing. /ra
