Being generous with love is not a question, but spending for all the expenses of the one you love is a different matter. That's how actress and fashionista Heart Evangelista felt in her past relationship.
Heart Evangelista Admits Feeling Like a Sugar Mommy
"I felt like a sugar mommy in my past relationship," Heart admitted in a recent interview. "I was always spending. I was ruined by men. That's my language of love. That's always been my language of love. What I plant when I leave is, 'I'm sorry you lost it all,' like that. I'm very, very giving. I'm very generous."
Heart recalled how one of her ex-boyfriends left a different impression on her. "I did have one boyfriend that I felt was not proper. I didn't like it. There is something about him that left a bad taste in my mouth. Just one. I won't say who." Heart did not mention the name of her ex-boyfriend. She came to a point where she realized she was shouldering all the expenses during their relationship. "Parang, I felt like, 'Okay, I feel like a sugar mommy na,' parang ganyan."
When asked to give a hint about who her ex was, she said, "They're all good-looking. He was kind, maybe he just really needed it. Extra help."
Heart's Past Relationships
Heart's first boyfriend was actor-director John Pratts, a relationship she openly publicized. It started as a loveteam in 2000 and eventually turned into a real-life affair. Then came John Lloyd Cruz in 2005, but that relationship was kept secret. Only in October 2017 did Heart confess she had a relationship with JL, but it didn't last long.
In late 2005, Jericho Rosales came into the scene. Heart had a three-year relationship with Echo. After their controversial breakup, Heart had a brief encounter with a non-showbiz guy, but that also didn't last long.
Heart's heart opened again when Japanese-Brazilian actor-model Daniel Matsunaga entered her life. Their love story started when they were both cast in the primetime drama series "Langit Sa Piling Mo" in 2010. In a separate interview, Daniel admitted being in a relationship with Heart on August 20, 2010. The relationship lasted for two years. When they parted ways, Heart was immediately romantically linked to Senator Chiz Escudero.
Ryan Chua Engaged to Long-Time Partner
Former ABS-CBN reporter Ryan Chua is now engaged to his long-time partner Joe-Marc Hsieh. Through his social media account, Ryan shared photos and a video of his marriage proposal in Hong Kong. It has been eight years since the couple shared meaningful time together.
"He said, Yes! After almost eight years of living like a married couple, we figured we should probably make it official at some point. I'm not romantic by nature but Chowee Hsieh is worth the occasional public display of cheesiness," Ryan posted.
The scene was in a classy restaurant. Right after dessert was served, Ryan knelt in front of Joe. "Sorry to embarrass you but... we've been through a lot, so many changes, but I want you to be the constant in my life." Joe replied, "Yes!" many times. A loud applause was heard in the restaurant, while the music "Till They Take My Heart Away" was playing.
Ryan has been based in Hong Kong for several years. His last open relationship was with model-actor Sebastian Castro. However, in October 2017, through his Facebook account, Sebastian announced that his four-year relationship with Ryan had ended. Sebastian did not mention the reason behind the separation, but some members of the LGBTQ community were not in favor of his relationship with Ryan.
