John Lloyd Cruz

MANILA – Popular actor John Lloyd Cruz said that he has no plans of tying the knot just yet with his girlfriend of two years, to date; actress Angelica Panganiban. Although he admitted to feeling the pressure to settle down and start a family.

Cruz said that despite several recent celebrity weddings – the main reason for the pressure – he has to focus on his career, at the moment.

The actor, who just last week renewed his three-year contract with the ABS-CBN network, spoke about the matter to reporters from ABS-CBN News and “The Buzz.”

“At this point, kakapirma lang natin. I’d like to show my bosses na nasa top priority natin ngayon ang trabaho and gusto natin ma-achieve yung content ng kontrata, maka-deliver tayo sa pinirmahan natin, sa commitment natin sa network (At this point, we just signed the deal. I’d like to show my bosses that work is my top priority now, and that I desire to achieve the content of the contract, to deliver on what I signed, to my commitment to the network.), Cruz said. ”

“Bihira na sa kagaya ko na medyo matagal na rin sa industriya at nabibigyan ng ganitong klaseng tiwala from the network. I guess ang kasunod nun is kung ano yung opportunity na binibigay sa ‘yo, mas mahalaga na ma-achieve ko muna yung gusto ko munang ma-achieve in terms of the content of the contract (It comes rare these days that such an opportunity is given to someone like me, who has been in the industry for some time, to be given this kind of blessing from the network. I guess what comes next is whatever opportunity that you are given, but for now what is more important that I first achieve what I want to achieve in terms of the content of the contract.) ” he added.
