Claudine says guy on Instagram posts is a ‘friend’

MANILA, Philippines- Claudine Barretto denies that the guy she named Mark Anthony is her new found love.

The public became curious about the guy she referred to on her Instagram posts.

In a report by Nelson Canlas in “24 Oras” Tuesday, Claudine said that Mark Anthony is just her friend.

“Kaibigan ko talaga siya,” she clarified. “We’re usually always together because we work together, may project kami together.”

She also adds that her positive vibe is not because of Mark Anthony, nor because she underwent rehab as some of the reports say.

“Ayoko na magising na parang depressed ako or sad ako,” she replied when complimented about the positive aura she emanates. “Parang there’s so much things in life to be grateful and thankful for. “

Meanwhile, Claudine said she has invited Raymart to attend their daughter Sabina’s recital on May 29 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum. The actress forwarded her invite to her estranged husband through their lawyers.

Claudine explained that she invited Raymart, despite their legal battle, because she wanted her kids to build a relationship with their father again.

“Kawawa rin naman ‘yong anak ko kung wala ‘yong tatay niya do’n di ba?” she said. “They really have to get along and start to have a relationship with Raymart again.”
