It seems that Jennylyn Mercado is greatly influenced by her boyfriend Luis Manzano not just in her hosting but also in her love for sports.
The couple got close while doing Muay Thai and they’ve now moved on to scuba diving.
“Nag-start ito noong nagbakasyon kami sa Escaya (Beach Spa and Resort in Bohol),” Jennylyn shared on “Showbiz Central,” Jan. 22.
The short vacation came out as a welcome introduction for the actress-TV host into the world of scuba diving. Photos of her and Luis while underwater and while with friends atop a yacht were flashed on screen as the interview progressed.
“Pinilit lang niya ako na mag-discovery diving lang. Parang pasyal-pasyal lang so, may tagahila pa sa akin. May nagda-drag sa akin sa ilalim ng water,” Jennylyn revealed.
She initially thought that was it. To her surprise, Luis had already gotten a scuba diving coach for her.
“Sabi niya, ‘O, may diving lessons ka.’ ‘Ha? Okay.’ Oo lang ako nang oo. Pinag-[scuba] lesson niya ako.”
Taking around four lessons, she also shared, “Actually, napilitan lang talaga ako. Nandiyan na kasi ang teacher.”
While underwater, Jennylyn noted feeling, “Parang iba ang mundo ‘pag nasa ilalim ka [ng dagat]. Ang daming iba-ibang creatures.” She also added, “Sobrang ganda!”
She so loved the water sports that “ bumili na kami ng mga gear. Ako, bumili na ng underwater camera.”
As Luis is known to be a sports adventure enthusiast, Jennylyn feels “safe naman ako ‘pag kasama ko siya.”
Their common interest in physical fitness, Jennylyn stressed, works to their advantage as a couple.
“Maganda sa isang relationship na talagang nagkakasundo kayo sa mga sports or kung anu-anong mga hilig ninyo. Maganda ‘yung nagdya-jive ‘yung mga gusto n’yo.”
Aside from sports, Jennylyn admits that Luis is also a great influence in her hosting career.
“Oo naman, lalo na itong ginagawa kong pagho-host na rin kasi ang dami kong natutunan sa kanya. Ang dami niyang tinuturo sa akin. ‘Pag may mga question ako, ‘Paano ba ‘to?’ [or] ‘Pa’no ko ba ‘to gagawin?’ Nasasagot niya. Tinuturuan niya ako kung paano gagawin.”
Jennylyn does not see their relationshio, which has now been disclosed to the public, as a hindrance to her acting career.
“Siguro sa part ko parang wala naman. Hindi naman siguro mangyayari ‘yon kasi ‘yung mga past relationships ko napa-partner naman ako sa iba. Nagki-click naman ‘yung love team.”
As a TV host, the actress also welcomes criticisms.
“Kanya-kanya opinion ‘yan. Kung gusto nila akong siraan, okay lang. Kung gusto nilang mag-comment sa akin ng negative, okay lang. Kung positive, much better. Okay lang, walang problema. Kung may mga negative comments or violent reaction, tinatanggap ko naman ‘yun, eh. Nakakatulong din ‘yon para mag-push sa akin,” she explained.
During the interview, Jennylyn was queried if she’s already met Luis’ dad, Edu Manzano.
“‘Yung talagang nagkita na may date, umupo, hindi pa. Nakasalubong ko one time sa mall na hindi sinasadya. ‘Yun pa lang.”
