In celebration of his 20th year in show business, Kapamilya actor Jericho Rosales graces the cover of StarStudio magazine’s February 2016 issue. Aside from giving an exclusive tour of his home, the magazine also features Jericho’s humble beginnings and his relationships with wife Kim Jones and with his 15-year-old son Santino, among others.

“20 years is for me,

ang daming nangyari na pala

and I just live my life a day at a time.

Siguro

that’s the secret to being happy,” Jericho said, adding that time has flown by fast.

During his 20 years in the entertainment industry, Jericho was able to establish himself as an award-winning actor. Sharing some of his career milestones in a press conference at B Hotel in Quezon City last January 28, Jericho mentioned doing the original

Pangako Sa ‘Yo

as one of the highlights of his career. Likewise,

Sana’y Wala Nang Wakas

was also memorable for him as it was the teleserye that made him popular even in the other countries.

Aside from the acting awards he was given, Jericho also acknowledged the movie

Tanging Yaman

, “’Y

un ‘yung

film

na talagang tumulong sa’kin

.” He also expressed interest in making a second installment of the film Alagwa, later adding how it opened many opportunities for him such as getting invited to an anti-human trafficking event abroad where he met Hollywood stars.

His relationships with fellow celebrities were also noted.

The actor, who admitted having loved intensely in the past, was then asked to describe each of his former girlfriends.

Jericho described his past relationship with actress Angelika dela Cruz as “baliw” because, “B

aliw ‘yung

relationship

namin eh. ‘Yun ‘yung tipong talagang umaakyat ako ng bakod para makita ko siya… Nagtatricycle ako, nagji-jeep ako para makita ko siya.

”

Meanwhile, he said that he and former love team partner Kristine Hermosa were like “aso’t pusa” since they were always quarreling, “

Tumatawag ako kay kuya Alan (

his handler from Star Magic)

. Kuya Allan,

feeling

ko i

n love

na ako talaga eh. Kasi maglove team kami noon saka magkaaway kami noon, di ba? Tapos lagi kaming nagbabangayan. Siguro aso’t pusa na lang

.”

Thinking of words to describe model Cindy Kurleto, Jericho agreed that she was the “Pinagselosan” of someone he did not directly named.

However, Jericho denied that he had a relationship with actress Vanessa Del Bianco, saying that they were only friends. “

Siya ‘yung

crush

ko dati na talagang

crush

ko pero hindi ko pinormahan,

” he added.

Admitting that his past relationship with actress Heart Evangelista was intense, Jericho said that they were over that issue now, “

May

issue

pa ba ngayon? Wala na, di ba? Matanda na tayo,

graduate n

a tayo dun

.” He also said that it was his longest relationship then as it lasted for three years.

Jericho explained why he called TV host Cesca Litton as the “kamulatan,” “

Siya ‘yung

gir

l na nagpa

realize

sa akin ng talagang tunay na

value

ng

babae so

siya ay puwede nating sabihing, ‘kamulatan.

’”

He said that he never proposed marriage to any of his exes, implied that he is also friends with some of them and shared that he and Kim are open to one another about their past relationships.
