During a media interview on the sidelines of the press conference for his latest film “Fruitcake,” held yesterday at Kao Manila, Newport World Resorts in Pasay City, Garcia clarified his stand on the speculation surrounding his relationship with the golfer.
In a bid to clear the air, Garcia stated, “Para maklaro na lahat and wala nang maitanong ang lahat. Baka kasi sabihin nila, dini-deny ko ‘yung babae, ‘di ba?” He continued, “Hindi ko siya dini-deny. It’s just that, ako and her decided not to share it to everyone. Kasi ‘yung relationship na ‘yan ay kami lang naman ‘yung parte dun, e.”
The actor emphasized his desire for privacy, reflecting on the lessons learned from past relationships and the turmoil that ensued when details were made public. Garcia expressed his newfound appreciation for privacy, not only in his relationships but also regarding his family, indicating that keeping personal matters confidential was preferable in today’s times.
