Sa pag-ibig, mari-realize natin na hindi tayo perfect as an individual. Pero kapag dumating ang tao na talagang swak sa ‘yo — parang puzzle ang pag-ibig, eh — dapat magtulungan kayo para maging buo at maging isa kayo. I really put so much respect on people who (go) against all odds, who are so brave,” he said.“I’d like to also give it up to my wife, that she went against all odds for me. At the end of the day, love is the decision of two individuals, not about the people in the family or the people around them anymore. It’s about you and your partner,” Guidicelli added.He then advised them: “Always put God in the middle. Always respect each other. Kung meant to be ‘yan, darating ang panahon na magiging kayo ulit.”<ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/02/21/20/timeline-over-the-years-matteo-and-sarah-kept-asking-for-acceptance-from-pop-stars-parents">TIMELINE: Over the years, Matteo and Sarah kept asking for acceptance from pop star’s parents</a></li>	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/10/29/22/sarah-geronimo-humingi-ng-patawad-sa-pamilya">Sarah Geronimo humingi ng patawad sa kaniyang magulang, pamilya</a></li></ul>Guidicelli, 32, and Geronimo, 34, tied the knot in February 2020 in a ceremony that was marred with controversy, after reports of the pop star’s family attempting to stop the nuptial.The incident reportedly estranged Geronimo from her parents, to whom she publicly apologized through an open letter last month.
