Netizens Shocked by Eric Fructuoso’s Revelation About Toni Gonzaga
Netizens were surprised by the revelations of former matinee idol and hiphop dancer Eric Fructuoso about his past relationship with TV-host actress Toni Gonzaga.
Eric Fructuoso’s candid admission about his alleged past relationship with Toni Gonzaga garnered various reactions from netizens.
It is not unknown to everyone that Eric Fructuoso was one of the OJ hearthrob actors in the 90s. He was also a member of the Gwapings, and his undeniable good looks led him to be linked to famous and beautiful actresses in the industry.
Among them are Ara Mina, Joyce Jimenez, Aubrey Miles, and Claudine Barretto.
Meanwhile, in a recent guesting on Carmina Villaroel’s show “Sarap Di Ba?” on GMA7, Eric Fructuoso found himself in the hot seat when he was asked about his past relationship with Toni Gonzaga.
“Is it true that you had a relationship with the TV host-actress Toni Gonzaga?” Carmina Villaroel asked.
Eric Fructuoso seemed surprised by the question and remained silent for a few seconds, as if contemplating his response. He then clarified if Toni Gonzaga was the person being mentioned and confidently stated that there is only one Toni Gonzaga.
Eric Fructuoso then admitted to having had a relationship with Toni Gonzaga after his relationship with Claudine Barretto. He revealed that their relationship lasted for three years, including the courtship stage. Despite this, he clarified that he was not a womanizer and genuinely loved his past partners.
However, Eric Fructuoso did not divulge the real reason why his relationship with Toni Gonzaga and his other ex-girlfriends did not work out.
This revelation surprised netizens, especially considering the strict nature of Toni Gonzaga’s parents when it comes to dating.
Netizens also recalled Toni Gonzaga’s past statement in an interview where she proudly introduced Paul Soriano as the first and last man in her life.
Meanwhile, some netizens expressed dismay over Carmina Villaroel’s question, saying that it is not appropriate to discuss their past relationships given that they are already married and have their own families now.
On the other hand, Toni Gonzaga has not given any statement regarding the issue.
Here are some comments from netizens:
“No need for the disclosure, very ungentlemanly of him. What is the purpose? Both of them are married, she’s blessed she didn’t end up with him.”
“Some are overreacting, he was asked and he answered. Where exactly in his answer is he causing trouble? Opening the issue immediately causes trouble? The past is past, you are the only ones affected, overly dramatic.”
Now, let’s translate it to Filipino.
Nagulat ang mga netizens sa mga pahayag ng dating matinee idol at hiphop dancer na si Eric Fructuoso tungkol sa kanyang nakaraang relasyon kay TV-host actress na si Toni Gonzaga.
Ang bukas-palad na pag-amin ni Eric Fructuoso tungkol sa umano’y relasyon nila ni Toni Gonzaga ay nagdulot ng iba’t ibang reaksyon mula sa mga netizens.
Hindi na lingid sa kaalaman ng lahat na si Eric Fructuoso ay isa sa mga OJ hearthrob actors noong dekada nobenta. Isa rin siya sa mga miyembro ng Gwapings, at ang kanyang kagwapuhan ang siyang nagtulak sa kanya na maikonekta sa mga sikat at magagandang aktres sa industriya.
Kabilang dito ang mga sikat na personalidad tulad nina Ara Mina, Joyce Jimenez, Aubrey Miles, at Claudine Barretto.
Samantala, sa isang guesting ni Eric Fructuoso sa show ni Carmina Villaroel na “Sarap Di Ba?” sa GMA7, nasorpresa siya nang maitanong sa kanya ang tungkol sa kanyang nakaraang relasyon kay Toni Gonzaga.
“Totoo ba na nagkaroon kayo ng relasyon ng TV host-actress na si Toni Gonzaga?” ang tanong ni Carmina Villaroel.
Sa unang sandali ay nagulat si Eric Fructuoso sa tanong at ilang segundo siyang natahimik, tila ba pinag-iisipan ang kanyang isasagot. Matapos niyon ay nilinaw niya kung si Toni Gonzaga nga ba ang tinutukoy at kumpiyansa niyang sinabing iisa lamang si Toni Gonzaga.
Ipinahayag ni Eric na nakarelasyon niya noon si Toni Gonzaga pagkatapos ng kanyang relasyon kay Claudine Barretto at tumagal ito ng tatlong taon, kasama na ang panahon ng panliligaw. Gayunpaman, nilinaw niya na hindi siya isang manloloko at totoong minahal niya ang kanyang mga naging karelasyon.
Gayunpaman, hindi niya ibinahagi ang tunay na dahilan kung bakit hindi nag-work out ang kanyang relasyon kay Toni Gonzaga at sa iba pa niyang naging kasintahan.
Ikinagulat ito ng mga netizens lalo na’t hindi naman lingid sa kaalaman ng lahat ang pagiging strikto ng mga magulang ni Toni Gonzaga patungkol sa pakikipagdate.
Mariing kinondena ng ilang netizens ang naging tanong ni Carmina Villaroel, na sinasabing hindi na dapat pag-usapan pa ang kanilang nakaraan, lalo na’t sila ay may mga pamilya na ngayon.
Samantala, wala pang pahayag si Toni Gonzaga patungkol sa isyu.
Narito ang ilang komento mula sa mga netizens:
“Walang pangangailangan para sa pahayag na iyon. Napaka hindi maginoo. Ano ang layunin? Pareho silang may asawa, pinagpala siya na hindi siya nagtapos kasama niya.”
“May mga nag-ooverreact, tinanong siya at sumagot. Saan sa kanyang sagot ang nagpakagulo? Pagbukas ng isyu agad ay nagpapakagulo na? Ang nakaraan ay nakaraan, kayo lang ang apektado, sobrang-drama.”
Tungkol naman sa reaksyon sa isyu, wala pa ring pahayag si Toni Gonzaga.
