Daniel respects Kathryn’s religion, won't date other girls

MANILA, Philippines- Daniel Padilla respects Kathryn Bernardo’s decision not to make their relationship official yet owing to  difference in their religion.

Kathryn is a member of Iglesia ni Cristo while Daniel is a Catholic.

In an interview with “TV Patrol” on  March 18, Kathryn admits that religion is a big factor in considering whether she enter in a relationship.

“Religion, malaking factor siya para sa ating lahat,” the “teen princess” said. “Pero for me pagmahal mo naman ang isang tao, tatanggapin mo kung ano na ang tao na 'yon.

“Ako kung ganon na talaga ako, kailangan tanggapin na ‘yon ng isang tao kasi ako na ‘yon, e, hindi mo na 'yon mababago.”

When asked about this, the “teen prince” asked back, “kailan naging issue ang relihiyon?” he then added that “hindi issue ‘yon. Ano lang ‘yan, hindi tayo puwede magdesisyon ngayon.”

Daniel refused to  answer whether he would be willing to change his religion for Kathryn.

“Sa future na lang po natin [malalaman ‘yan]. Tignan na lang po natin kung anong mangyayari sa future. Hindi pa po ako makakapag-decide ngayon.”

Not Dating Other Girls

Meanwhile, since Daniel and Kathryn have not made their relationship official, Daniel was asked if he could date other girls.

“Matagal na po ako nanliligaw kay Kathryn, e, tatapusin ko pa ba ngayon?” he said. â€œBakit ka pa manliligaw? Hindi na tama ‘yon. Binigay mo na ang sarili mo sa isang babae, bakit ka pa manliligaw?”

Could Kathryn accept other suitors?  Daniel said “okay lang” but quickly added: â€œSiguro kung alam ng lalaki ‘yong mga nangyayari ngayon hindi na siguro niya liligawan si Kathryn.”

Though many think that the Daniel will have to wait long for Kathryn's formal and official "yes", Daniel thinks otherwise.

For the Kapamilya actor, “wala ako do’n sa hintay nang hintay. Ako kasi kung anong moment ngayon doon lang ako. Ayoko nang minamadali ang mga bagay, kasi kapag minamadali ang mga bagay maraming mga hindi magandang nangyayari.”
