SHARON NOT AGAINST PAULO AS KC’S BF TO BE

With the spreading words that Paulo Avelino is the latest suitor of KC Concepcion, her mom Sharon Cuneta stressed. “ I really don’t know. But if it’s true. I think Paulo’s ok. Honestly, I’d like my daughter to have a serious lover. Gusto ko siyang magpakasal. I do pray to have a grandchild at this point in my life. I truly ask KC na bigyan na niya ako ng apo.”
A no mendacious Sharon admits that at 19 she got married, had a child at a young age. “Sabi nila bata pa akong maging lola pero handa na ako. So if my apo gets older eh di gaanong malaki ang age gap namin. That’s what I want, to enjoy my time as a grandma, for a change.”
Looks like even if KC yearns to please her mom, it would take time before she plunges into marriage. As she chortled to writer-chums, “It seems I’ll be the opposite of my mom. Baka past 30 na ako mag-asawa at magka-anak.”
About Paulo, KC reportedly sized him up as a responsible, honest guy. But she neither confirmed nor denied if he’s courting her. However, Paulo nods that he has good intention in winning KC’s heart.
