MANILA, Philippines – Pokwang denied that she’s already engaged to boyfriend Lee O’Brian.

“Joke lang ‘yon!” she exclaimed in an interview on Tuesday, when asked to confirm her engagement.

The Kapamilya comedienne joked about being engaged during the press conference of the 2015 Metro Manila Film Festival entry “All You Need is Pag-ibig.”

“‘Yong mga gano’ng happiness sa buhay ko hindi ko dapat pinagdadamot,” she added. “Sine-share ko ‘yon kasi alam ko marami naman ang nagdasal para magkaro’n ako ng love life. So bakit kailangan ko isekreto ‘yon? So kapag dumatig ‘yon sasabihin ko sa inyo.”

She was single for seven years before she met Lee when they did the film “Edsa Woolworth” in 2014.

For now, Pokwang said they’re still getting to know each other before finally deciding to settle down.

“Kasi ang hirap, e, papakasal tapos mauuwi rin pala sa wala,” she explained. “Nando’n kami sa stage na masaya and enjoy, kilalanin [ang isa’t isa], tayo ba talaga.”

She’s just happy that she’ll get to spend Christmas together with Lee for the first time since they’ve become a couple.

Pokwang wants him to see how Filipinos celebrate Christmas.

Meanwhile, the Kapamilya comedienne is proud of how their film “All You Need is Pag-ibig” tackled the complicated world of love.

“Bukod sa maraming makaka-relate sa bawat kuwentong pag-ibig na ‘to, hindi ka lang puro kilig, tawa. May kurot din ito,” she said about the film directed by Antoinette Jadaone.

The film also stars Kris Aquino, Kim Chiu, Xian Lim, Jodi Sta. Maria, Ian Veneracion, Nova Villa and Bimby Aquino-Yap.
