In a YouTube video, Piolo had an interview with Boy Abunda where he was asked whether he is gay or not.

“Were you not affected with what people are saying that you are a lover of gay? Rich gay?” Boy Abunda asked.

“No,” Piolo directly answered.

The TV host then asked: “You are not even bothered when people say you are gay?”

“Because you know, it’s not true. I mean you know, you know yourself better than they are, than they do,” Piolo said.

“For me kasi, what they do matter if they really know me. So what you see in me is the real me, I’m not hiding anything,” he added.

The actor was asked if he would ever fall in love with someone who is gay.

“Naku, naku, nag-isip ako don,” Piolo said.

“’Wag naman ganong tanong, hindi ko ata kaya ‘yun. I don’t wanna be discriminatory, I don’t wanna discriminate people. As what I’ve said, I’m open but to a certain extent,” he continued.

“’Di ko yata… Ayaw ko. ‘di ako ready,” the actor added.

In 2019, Piolo challenged a basher who called him and his son Iñigo gay. He said “suntukan tayo!” as a response to the basher.

Piolo Pascual is a famous actor in the Philippines. Some of his popular films are On The Job, Starting Over Again, and The Breakup Playlist.

Earlier, Piolo’s ex-girlfriend, KC Concepcion, revealed that she regrets that it had to end between her and the actor. She also shared some details about their past relationship.

Actress Carmina Villaroel admitted that she almost had a relationship with Piolo in the past. They also had a double date.
