MANILA – When Brapanese actor Daniel Matsunaga and actress Erich Gonzales played as contestants in ABS-CBN’s game show “Kapamilya, Deal or No Deal,” the two finally admitted  the real status of their relationship.

Show host Luis Manzano first asked why Daniel referred to Erich as ‘Spartan baby.’

“Mahilig ako sa workout ’di ba? So nu’ng naging kami… Hindi po nanggaling sa akin. Hindi po nanggaling kay Erich. ‘Nu’ng naging kami.’ Tapos,” Daniel said.

(I’m fond of working out, right? So when we became a couple… It was not from me. It was not from Erich. When we became a couple. Done.)

“She’s my girlfriend already,” he added, addressing the viewers who were delighted to hear the news.

During the course of the game show, Luis then asked Erich why they chose briefcase number 15.

“Hindi. Kasi kanina on our way here, nag-pray kami tapos biglang sabi niya, ‘O 15.’ ’Yung una niyang nakita…,” Erich said, clarifying that 15 was not the date of their monthsary.

(No. Because a while ago on our way here, we prayed.

Then he immediately said, ’15.

’ It’s the first [number] he saw.)

“Ako naman siyempre masaya ako at proud ako… We share the same interests. We go to the same church din,” she later on added, referring to their relationship.

(As for me, of course I’m happy and proud… We share the same interests. We also go to the same church.)

The two had been rumored to be a couple since April this year, after their sweet photos in Instagram resulted to some speculations. Daniel was the first to confirm in his Instagram account that he was indeed in a relationship with Erich.
