“Yes, we are engaged.”
This was the admission of director Paul Soriano on Sunday when asked about the status of his relationship with host-actress Toni Gonzaga, his girlfriend for more than seven years.
Soriano revealed that he proposed to Gonzaga last January 21 in their family home in Rizal -- when she least expected
it.“It was right after her birthday. We just come from a birthday dinner and I had the ring in my pocket the whole dinner.
I just wanted to wait for the right private moment. It happened in her home, just very simple. She was in her pantulog already,” he said.
Soriano said he first talked to Gonzaga’s parents before he asking Gonzaga if she would marry him.
“I was in tears. It was quite an emotional moment. Before we went up
to her living room, I had to talk to Tito Bonoy and Tita Pinty and I showed them the ring. I said, ‘Do you mind po if I propose to Toni?’ And her mom was like, ‘Oh it’s about time.’ So that was nice. And the dad looks at me and said, ‘Why are you asking me? Ask her.’That meant there was that blessing. I wanted to give honor to her parents first. We literally ran into her living room,” he said.
Aside from Gonzaga’s parents, the proposal was also witnessed by the actress’ sister, Alex.
Asked what exactly did he say at that moment, Soriano said: “I just told her family -- I know they are only four -- I said, ‘I’m not here to take her away from you guys. I’m actually here to join you if that’s possible.’ When they hugged, I said this is one of the moments where you
just have to cry. I just got down on my knee and I asked her if she will marry me. She said yes. Before I was done, I think halfway through the question pa lang, nag-yes na.”
According to the celebrity couple, they are planning to tie the knot this year.
“It’s been seven and a half years. She’s been such a great part of my life. The best blessing I’ve ever received. I want to spend the rest of my life with her,” Soriano said.

Does he want to star in a movie with girlfriend Sarah Geronimo? “I don’t know now. I know it’s difficult because we are
in the industry together, but as much as possible we want to keep it separate as much as possible. I’d love to work with her, but I think it’s better for our privacy and our relationship that she can do her own thing and I can do my own thing. We don’t want to mix our things together,” he said.
Now that Valentine’s Day is coming up, is he planning for the special day? “We’ll see I don’t have anything specific yet pero siyempre naman meron on that special day so we’ll see.” With a lot of celebrities getting engaged and tying the knot lately, Matteo was asked if he is ready to settle down with Sarah. “Not yet, I’m still 24, soIhavealotofdreamsofmyownthat

already earned several prestigious awards, the most recent of which is the Best Actress plum at the 13th Gawad Tanglaw for her performance in “Ikaw Lamang.”
Palo, who has worked with Julia prior in a number of TV and movie projects remarked that she more than met his expectations. He related how the film’s script required for intense display of emotions, which could only prove too draining but Julia delivered with aplomb.
Enrico also commended Julia. He described her as a young actress who exude innocence with a hint of rebelliousness and daring.
“I’ve worked with her not only on television but in film. I already know her capacity as an actress so I was happy that she got the role,” Enrico expressed.
As for Julia, she revealed that she changed her acting style specifically for her role in “Halik sa Hangin.” Unlike before wherein she would always draw emotions from past experiences to translate her character, this time, she made it a point to become “the character herself.”
“I got inside my character and internalized what she is feeling in every scene.That’s why I had a hard time snapping out of it after the director yells
