I take care of her, but I want to show her what reality is, what life is. That everywhere you go, you won’t walk around with an entourage, or be treated like a VIP,” he said.</p><p>Among the things they usually bond over are working out together, and doing outdoor activities. Just recently, the two climbed to Mr. Pico De Loro along with their other friends to celebrate Geronimo’s birthday.</p><p>While they have some similarities, Guidicelli mentioned that they also have differences just like normal couples do. Nonetheless, the actor appreciates how they complement and bring out the best in each other.</p>
