<p>Marvin Agustin opened up about why he did not attend Jolina Magdangal&#x27;s wedding.</p><p>Jolina got married to Mark Escueta on November 21, 2011. In an interview with Karen Davila, Marvin admitted that he deliberately chose not to be present on her wedding day.</p><p>&quot;Nagtampo si Jolina ng major nun kasi di ko naman masabi sa kanya because wala namang chance. I actually chose not to really go to her wedding, it was really my decision not to go, even ininvite talaga ako ni Jolina,&quot; he relayed.</p><p>Marvin further explained: &quot;I wanted to respect &#x27;yung ceremony kasi &#x27;yung clamor nun ng mga tao na kami magkatuluyan, &#x27;sana kayo, sana kayo,&#x27; wedding &#x27;yun ni Mark at tsaka ni Jolina. Baka pagpunta ko dun ma-teary-eyed ako, eh sobrang saya ako para sa kanila baka isipin nila ang lungkot ko maging negative pa yung energy pa.&quot;</p><p>The actor further pointed out that he didn’t want to draw unnecessary attention to himself on a day that should have been solely about the bride and groom.</p><p>&quot;Was that all in my head, ang assuming ko ba na pagtitinginan ako ng mga tao? But I guess baka mangyari &#x27;yun. I don&#x27;t want to steal an inch or a little whatever moment for the couple supposedly that special day,&quot; he said.</p><p>Asked if there was a bit of sadness when Jolina tied the knot, Marvin stressed: &quot;Wala. I am so happy for Jolina because when you find the right person that you would marry and spend the rest of your life with, won&#x27;t you be happy for that person?&quot;</p><p>He went on: &quot;I am that hundred percent completely happy because I know Mark, hindi ko man siya kilala na kasing kilala ko ngayon, but I know that he is a decent guy, good guy and I want Jolina to end up with a good guy like him.&quot;</p><div><iframe width="1263" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hnwlnU7fp6Y" title="Why MARVIN Didn’t Attend JOLINA’S Wedding #MarJo | Karen Davila Ep189" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>Jolina confessed that she did not initially understand why Marvin did not attend her wedding but later found out the real reason when they did an interview.</p><p>&quot;Hindi ko maintindihan [kasi] siya &#x27;yung isa sa una ko talagang sinabihan, ito &#x27;yung date, hindi ko nga inannounce sa TV pero &#x27;yung mga kilala ko talaga so inexpect ko na nandun siya kasi I consider him na that time isa na &#x27;to sa close friends ko di ba? And sabi niya nga biglang nagkaroon siya ng Cebu so hindi ko talaga inaaccept lahat ng reason niya hanggang nung sinabi niya &#x27;yun sa isang interview,&quot; she said.</p><p>She added: &quot;Nung sinabi na niya &#x27;yun parang in a way dahil nire-respeto ko rin si Marvin, I will accept it.&quot; </p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-24" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DFaOO5UzKVq/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=754&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A24%2C%22os%22%3A5485916%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="833" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-24" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>Marvin and Jolina are set to star in their reunion movie <em>Ex Ex Lovers</em>, to be released in cinemas on February 13. </p><p>The onscreen partners described<em> Ex Ex Lovers</em> as their dream project.</p><p>&quot;This genre na &#x27;yung &#x27;90s vibes na rom-com, &#x27;yung makulit lang talaga at masaya.
