Marami ang nag-aabang kung kailan ipapakilala ni Diego kung sino ang ina ng kanyang anak.
"Alam mo, she chose talaga to be private," paiwas na paliwanag ng aktor.
"She has her own thing. She's not in showbiz, so why would she... We just want to have a quiet and peaceful life."
Ayaw pa rin pangalanan ni Diego ang kanyang baby mommy sa ngayon.
"If needed. Sa tingin ko naman, hindi naman kailangan, e. Pero kung kailangan, puwede," katuwiran niya.
"Even so, to my daughter, if that would be your question, uunahan na kita.
"I don't... I mean, wala pang sariling isip yung bata, e. So, I'll wait for that time if she wants to be exposed into this kind of life, go, suportahan kita.
"But for now, I don't want to see her... exploiting her at her expense, di ba?"
Nakapanayam ng PEP.ph si Diego sa Tanglawan Unity Walk, Home of United Council ng "Tanglawan Festival" na ginanap sa San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan, kahapon, September 6, 2023.
Inimbitahan si Diego nina Mayor Arthur and Congresswoman Rida Robes upang magbigay saya sa mga San Joseños.
no plan to get married yet
Ang isa pang gustong malaman ng mga tao ay kung handa nang lumagay sa tahimik si Diego ngayong mayroon siyang anak at maganda ang relasyon niya sa ina nito.
Matapat na pahayag naman ni Diego: "No. You know, I'm gonna start a podcast soon. And you'll see me in YouTube too. Dun ko further i-elaborate my opinions about marriage.
"I feel kasi, if you're with this person, your partner, and you have good understanding naman both of you, what is marriage for pa ba?
"It's a just [a piece] of paper, tapos pag di kayo nagkasundo, mag-away kayo ng konti, may annulment pa, di ba?
"I get the concept of marriage, but I guess it's just something not for me. I don't think it's a good thing.
"I don't know. Siguro pag may podcast na ako, 'cause I know a lot of people [will] disagree with [my opinion], and a lot of people [will] also agree with me."

PROUD DADDY
Inihayag ni Diego na lubos ang kanyang kaligayahan mula nang isapubliko niya ang larawan ng kanyang baby daughter na karga-karga niya.
Pahayag ng 28-year-old actor, "Amazing. Absoutely amazing!
"I think it's different for men and for women cause the women are the one's carrying the baby for the longest time.
"I did it for me, you see. I did it for my family.
"The other day [September 3] was Father's Day in Australia.
"I was waiting for the Father's Day to post, and it would be my grand reveal."
Pero noong June 8 ay napilitan daw si Diego na kumpirmahin ang kanyang pagiging tatay.
"Kaso nga, may isang chikadora, and it won't be named, who tried to preempt it, and announced it before me," pahiwatig ni Diego sa kung sino mang nambuking sa kanya.
Patuloy niya: "And how could... I mean, she called me rude. I mean, pero sa totoo lang, who's the rude one if you're trying to steal that away from me?
"I only had that moment once with my daughter in my entire life. Imagine naman kung gawin yun sa kanya? How would she feel?
"I was waiting for the right time, di ba, na i-announce na, 'Hey, guys, this is my baby.'"
Kaya nag-post na raw sa Instagram si Diego para sa kanya na mismo manggaling ang impormasyon.
Humingi siya ng permiso sa mommy ng kanyang anak?
Sagot niya, "Of course!"
Proud daddy si Diego na hindi iniisip kung makakaapekto sa kanyang career ang pagkakaroon ng anak.
"Well, if you heard my interviews the past two or three years, I said it many times na I wanted a kid na.
"Like, from my exes, I always say [to them] na I wanna have a kid na.
"I reached an age na I want to hold my baby, see my son, my daughter. Whatever."
Sinisiguro raw ni Diego na personal niyang inaasikaso ang anak kapag magkasama sila.
Aniya, "Every day. Hindi sa pagyayabang, but if my baby momma is here, I actually do.
"I can't produce the milk, pero ako ang nagpapadede sa kanya. I change diapers, put her to sleep when she cries and wakes up, because the mom has to get rest to produce the milk.
"Can't you see my eyebags? Pinaghirapan ko ito."
