Jericho Rosales said his relationship with Janine Gutierrez is going “well and steady,” given that they share the same personalities.
In a recent interview with Diamond Star Maricel Soriano, Rosales refused to directly answer if Gutierrez is officially his girlfriend but emphasized that they go along well. Soriano is their costar in the series, “Lavender Fields.”
“I should say we’re doing really well, going really steady. We’re really happy. She’s professional. Masiyahin. Baliw din. Makulit din. So we really get along. Happy kami,” he said.
On Sunday, Gutierrez greeted the actor on his 45th birthday and shared blurry pictures of them during one of their dates in Intramuros. It was the first time that the actress posted Rosales on her Instagram page.
Meanwhile, the “Pangako Sa’Yo” actor previously revealed in an interview with Karen Davila that he thought Gutierrez was only 24 years old, making him reluctant to start dating her at first.
Despite their 10-year age difference, Rosales admitted that he already “felt something” the first time he went out with Gutierrez, saying he was amazed that he could talk to her for long hours.
The pair are currently playing husband and wife in the revenge drama “Lavender Fields.” Rosales also shared that their first date took place in a form of script reading and coffee.
In August, Rosales revealed that he and Gutierrez are dating after they were spotted in public places on different occasions.
Meanwhile, despite already having a new romance in his life, Rosales reiterated that he remains good friends with ex-wife-model Kim Jones, saying that they will always be best friends.
“How would people understand this, you know? How would they take this—two people can be friends? The whole 10 years, she was my best friend,” he said.
Earlier this year, a representative of the former couple confirmed that Rosales and Jones have been separated since 2019.
Meanwhile, Gutierrez was previously in a relationship with actor-dancer Rayver Cruz, who’s now dating singer Julie Anne San Jose.
