ROB Gomez surprised a lot of folks when Miss Multinational Philippines 2021 Shaila Rebortera revealed that they have a love child, a daughter who’s turning a year old on December 5. He says some folks advised him to keep it a secret since his showbiz career is just starting.
Rob feels so blessed as he has a new movie, the trilogy “Shake, Rattle & Roll Extreme.” And right after “Magandang Dilag” which was a big hit on GMA, he now has a new series right away and, this time, it’s in the evening on GMA, “Lovers/Liars.”
He says he rarely sees his daughter Amelia after he and her mom parted ways. “I really miss her and my wish is makita ko sana siya this holiday season,” he says. “I promise to spoil her on Christmas Day.”
How is his relationship with Shaila at the moment?
“We’re trying to iron out some kinks,” he says. “I hope we can celebrate Amelia’s first birthday together.”
He plays a controversial role in “Lovers/Liars” as the dad of Michelle Vito’s daughter who is also having an affair with a gay doctor, Polo Ravales.
“Mas challenging ang role ko as it’s a different kind of love triangle. I’ve never been in a gay relationship so it’s a big challenge for me to play the role of a guy who can do it with both man and woman.”
