Dawn's husband never jealous of Richard

MANILA – Davao del Norte Rep. Anton Lagdameo Jr. does not get jealous of actor Richard Gomez, who was recently reunited with his wife Dawn Zulueta for several television and movie projects. Gomez, who is now married to Lucy Torres, was Zulueta’s former boyfriend and on-screen partner. In an interview aired on “The Buzz” on Sunday, Lagdameo said it is more likely that he gets jealous of Zulueta’s work schedule she spends too much time taping. “Hindi naman [ako nagseselos kay Richard [kasi nagkakaintindihan kami.] 'Yung selos is more on ‘Can you please spend more time at home?’ We have dinners, minsan bumabiyahe kaming dalawa lang, we go to Hong Kong. We just make sure that we have time to spend together naman,” he said. More than two decades after their 1991 film "Hihintayin Kita sa Langit," the Gomez-Zulueta love team was brought back via top-rating ABS-CBN series "Walang Hanggan." Due to their strong following, the two are set to headline their own movie this year, and work on another television series set for next year. “[I’m] one of the biggest fans [nila Dawn and Richard] dati pa,” revealed Lagdameo. Meanwhile, Lagdameo said he is always behind his wife, especially now that she has a new TV series "Bukas na Lang Kita Mamahalin," as the mother of Gerald Anderson. “Congratulations and good luck. I hope it does well like the last one. I’m sure it will. Magaling naman talaga. I’m sure it will be a success,” he said. Lagdameo also revealed how Zulueta is as a wife and mother. “When she’s not on screen, she’s a normal person. Hindi rin siya yung kapag nasa bahay na, tulog and leave her alone. Hindi. Nag-aasikaso iyan sa mga gamit, OC iyan eh. Kailangan siya yung gagawa. Hindi napapabayaan yung bahay and yung trabaho,” he said. He added: “Maasikaso, very hands on. Disciplinarian din, pinagsasabihan ang mga bata at the same time maalaga. She always likes to do things with kids. Parating may time para sa mga bata. Kapag nasa trabaho siya and then the kids are free, kasama niya.”
