MANILA, Philippines — When news of Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla breaking up broke the Internet, many memes, including an unconfirmed list of Daniel's alleged affairs per year, came out.
But for this year, there seems to be no entry in the alleged list, as the Kapamilya actor said he will not look for a new love this year.
In his interview with MJ Felipe after he renewed his ABS-CBN contract recently, Daniel said he will have more work this year and has no plans to have a new relationship.
"No, definitely not. Love for human nature, 'yun ang hinahanap ko... Trabaho muna 'ko, wala muna akong love, love," Daniel said.
"I want to work on myself. I need to love myself first," he added.
Daniel also shared how he learned the importance of his family during these past months.
"Ngayon ko mas na-appreciate at nakita na in deeper level 'yung bond ko sa mga utol ko ngayon. Kaya minsan doon mo lang masasabi na legit pala 'yon na sa panahon ng madidilim, pamilya mo rin ang liwanag. Sila lang talaga. Super na-appreciate ko sila talaga," he said.
He also acknowledged his loyals fans for still supporting him.
"That's life. That's balance. Hindi pwedeng lahat galit lang, hindi pwedeng lahat masaya lang. It's a perfect balance, ganoon talaga. Lalapag ka rin," he said.
"Kahit doon sa mga nag-move on na sa akin, it's okay. Walid 'yung nararamdaman nila sa akin. At kung nararamdaman nila eh nararamdaman nila 'yon at hindi ko na sila mapipigilan. At sa mga nandoon pa rin sa akin, I appreciate them very,very much. They know me. I don't have to explain myself to them, kilala nila ako," he added.
