Matteo Guidicelli denies Italy wedding rumors amid COVID-19 fears
MANILA, Philippines — Kapamilya actor Matteo Guidicelli has denied rumors that he and wife Sarah Geronimo are set to wed in Italy late this month.
In an interview with ABS-CBN's MJ Felipe, the Filipino-Italian singer said he and Sarah had no plans to marry in Italy even before the outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
With the development that some areas in Italy have been locked down, I asked Matteo if plans for a wedding in Italy would still push thru. He clarified that there were no plans of a wedding in Italy to begin with. Even before the issue of the CoViD-19. pic.twitter.com/NaCHf8lf0t

"With the development that some areas in Italy have been locked down, I asked Matteo if plans for a wedding in Italy would still push thru. He clarified that there were no plans of a wedding in Italy to begin with. Even before the issue of the CoViD-19," MJ wrote on Twitter.
As of today, Italy has reportedly started a nationwide lockdown for having the second highest COVID-19 cases (10,149) following China.
It can be recalled that Matteo and Sarah tied the knot last February 20 via an intimate Christian wedding in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City.
Yesterday, the National Youth Commission (NYC) has officially welcomed Guidicelli as its new youth ambassador.
In its Facebook page, NYC posted photos of the newlywed actor at the commission's office.
