Ibang couple na kasali sa I Do, itutuloy ang kasal kahit matalo

Hindi naman pala lahat ng couples, Salve A., na kasali sa reality contest ng ABS-CBN is in the competition, dahil after sila sa wedding at honeymoon package, na siyang in store for the winning pair.

Isa sa pinaka-best example are Chris at Karen, who have a two decade age gap, at siya ring may pinakamahabang relasyon among the couples. More or less, mga 11 years na raw silang mag-sweetheart.

And guess what, Chris, at 45, is, kumbaga well-established na kung pinansiyal ang pag-uusapan.

May ilan siyang businesses na pinagkakakitaan regularly. And Karen herself ay may work din.

Between them it’s obvious, during an interview with them, na si Karen ang ‘‘susi,’’ kung bakit na­nanatiling matatag ang kanilang relasyon, na malamang mag-end nga sa wedding.

‘‘Iniintindi ko siya,’’ said Karen referring to Chris. ‘‘Kung minsan, ‘di niya mapigilang ‘di magkaroon ng outburst.

‘‘But in the end, when he realizes his mistake/mistakes, he can be the sweetest guy on this side of the earth,’’ pahayag pa ni Karen.

‘‘I love her, lalo’t for her patience and understanding,’’ said Chris, sa part niya.

“Our stint in the show, I Do, taught me, and I guess si Karen din, that together we can grow better.’’

So, feel ba niya si Karen na talaga ang babae para sa kanya?

‘‘I have no doubt, that she is,’’ sagot ni Chris. ‘‘I want us to be together for life.’’

Another groom-to-be in the competition na handang pakasalan ang kanyang Filipino girlfriend anytime soon, win or lose rito sa I Do competition, is Jimmy, a Korean national.

His Filipino partner, Kring, revealed her father has given her an ultimatum to get married next year.

At aware raw si Jimmy tungkol sa usapang ito nina Kring at ng ama. E, as far as he is concerned naman daw, said Jimmy, na kay Kring ang desisyon.

Jimmy has a stable job sa Pilipinas. He works as a marketing head of an accessory firm for a Korean company, based dito.

From among the nine couples na sumali sa programa, limang couples na lang ang natitira.

Who among them will emerge the winning couple? Not even I Do host Judy Ann Santos-Agoncillo has an idea nor, I Do coach Pia Acevedo at psychologist and marriage counselor, Dr. Julian Montano.

I Do is aired twice a week, Saturdays and Sundays on ABS-CBN.
