\u201cI\u2019ve always wanted to be a father first but maraming komplikasyon, maraming misunderstandings but I\u2019ve always wanted to be a father first.\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what Actor Paulo Avelino said during his interview at \u201cTonight with Boy Abunda\u201d.<\/p>\n

As he faces himself in front of a mirror, the actor was asked by Boy Abunda, the host of the show, which among the real-life roles he plays comes first.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe man in the mirror, he\u2019s a father, he\u2019s an actor, he\u2019s a boyfriend. Who is he first?\u201d asked Abunda.<\/p>\n

Avelino held back his tears as he answered the first question saying that he always wanted to be a father but there are a lot of complications and misunderstandings.<\/p>\n

The actor has a seven-year-old son with actress LJ Reyes. The actress is now in relationship with Paolo Contis, while Avelino is currently with his Filipino-Australian girlfriend Jodie Elizabeth Tarasek. Reyes is raising Aki, Avelino\u2019s son, along with Contis.<\/p>\n

When asked in an interview with ABS-CBN earlier this September if he was jealous of Conti\u2019s close relationship with Aki, Avelino answered: \u201cDi naman. May tamang oras naman na makasama ko ang anak ko; kumbaga di ko rin masabi kung anong nangyayari sa side nila [Not really. There\u2019s a right time when I can be with my son; I can\u2019t say what\u2019s going on on their side (LJ and Paolo)].\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, during the segment, Abunda asked Avelino his second question: \u201cAnong isang ugali, ni Pao, na gusto mong panatilihin [What is that one trait of Pao that you want to maintain]?\u201d<\/p>\n

The actor answered, \u201cIt\u2019s my passion for what I\u2019m doing and at the same time my genuine passion and care for the people I love.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked what trait he wants to change, Avelino simply said \u201cinconsistencies.\u201d<\/p>\n

During the question and answer, Avelino also stressed that he is not getting married anytime soon with his current girlfriend, however, he answered that \u201cshe could be the one\u201d.<\/p>\n

The actor appeared as a guest on \u201cTonight with Boy Abunda\u201d Monday night to promote his new Philippine romantic fantasy drama series \u201cThe Promise of Forever.\u201d The show also stars Ejay Falcon and Ritz Azul, which airs from Monday to Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
