CELESTE AND JONATHAN SPEAK UP
Nito lamang July 16, 2026, ini-launch ang retail ng beauty brand ni Celeste na Asul sa Century Square Mall sa Bonifacio Global City.
Una siyang dumating sa venue dakong ika-3:00 ng hapon, at hindi nagtagal ay dumating si Jonathan.
Bakas sa kilos ng dalawa ang pagiging malambing sa isa’t isa, tulad ng paghahalik ni Celeste kay Jonathan, at pagho-holding hands nila, indikasyong matibay ang kanilang relasyon sa kabila ng recent issue.
Sa isang punto pa nga ng interview, tinututukan ni Jonathan ng portable fan si Celeste para hindi ito mainitan.
Tinawag pa ni Celeste ang partner bilang “very supportive.”
“I think it's also important to have a partner that is there even for the most stupid things, like insecurity…” pagbabahagi ng beauty queen.
“’Cause I message him every day, ‘I look fat,’ or, ‘I look big,’ or, 'I look like a pomelo.’
“So, it's just important to have someone that makes it a little bit lighter and just easy to go through," pagtukoy ni Celeste sa pagbubuntis niya.
Nang tanungin kung inaalagaan ba siya ni Jonathan, sagot agad ni Celeste, “Oh, yes, of course. Yeah.”
Diretsa rin inusisa si Celeste kung ikinagulat ba nila ang isyu ukol sa relasyon nilang dalawa.
Paliwanag ni Celeste: “You know, at the end of the day, people will always have something to say, or they don't know what's going on.
“They will always want to give out an opinion or assume. But at the end of the day, only us know what actually happened, and the status of the relationship.
“So, it doesn't really matter… the noise and the chaos that is outside.
“Of course, it's not nice to hear, to read it, but at the end of the day, it doesn't affect the relationship, and that's what's important.
“We're just focused on the pregnancy and having the baby here.”
Sundot ng PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal), maayos ba ang lahat sa kanilang dalawa?
“Everything is well, yes. Everything is okay,” pagkumpirma ni Celeste.
Habang nakasalang sa interview si Celeste, biglang nagsalita si Jonathan na nasa likod ng press.
“Can I just say one thing?” bungad ng businessman. “I'm not on social media. I'm the person behind the camera. I'm the one supporting.
“And I think because I'm not seen a lot of the time, people make a lot of assumptions. But I'm always there, just behind the camera lens… not in front of it.”
Malinaw sa sinabi ni Jonathan na lagi siyang nasa tabi ni Celeste.
Pagsegunda agad ni Celeste, “And, I think it's also the perfect dynamic. I feel like just having someone that supports you behind the scenes is very important.
“And, as I said earlier, there's going to be more things coming out and people talking and different opinions, but I got used to it.”
CELESTE CORTESI ON "FALSE" RUMORS
Nagpaunlak din ng interview si Celeste sa PEP makalipas ang ilang sandali.
“Well, of course, you know, I think it's part of the game. It is what it is,” ukol sa mga kontrobersiya.
“I've been kinda used [to it] since the time of Miss Universe, of always having people spreading rumors and news...
“But, again, as I said earlier, what's important is to just keep rumors out of your personal life.
"At the end of the day, these people don't know us, and they don't matter to us, so it's important that we just focus on what we know, and the relationship, and, of course, also expecting the baby. So, I do wish that people also have more respect.”
Sundot pang tanong, paano ilalarawan ngayon ni Celeste ang estado ng buhay niya at pagsasama nila ni Jonathan.
“Well, we have a show coming up, so you guys have to watch it. But everything is okay, everything is good. And, yeah, we'll see… but everything's fine.”
Ang tinutukoy na show ni Celeste ay ang ginagawa niyang documentary ukol sa buhay niya na plano niyang ilabas sa mga susunod na buwan.
Paglalarawan dito ni Celeste sa press, “It's going to be a documentary about my life and the different aspects of my life.
"So, it's gonna be very unscripted and very raw. I'm actually a little bit nervous because of that.
“People always saw me on the stage in Miss Universe, and always saying the perfect thing or behaving a certain way and everything...
“But now, I think they will see a different side of me, which is... I hope you guys will like it.”
Paglalarawan niya sa documentary, “I think you guys will see all the backstage, about relationships, friends, and also a tour.”
