Inamin ni Rob Gomez na ang pagsasabi niya na single siya ang naging dahilan ng hiwalayan nila ng kanyang dating partner na si Shaila Rebortera.

Nabanggit ito ni Rob nang makausap siya ng GMANetwork.com at iba pang entertainment media matapos ang pagpapakilala sa cast ng upcoming horror movie na Shake, Rattle & Roll: Extreme kamakailan.

“For work purposes, I said I was single which is my mistake,” sabi ng aktor.

Matatandaan na nabanggit ito ni Rob sa panayam sa kanya ni Boy Abunda sa August 3 episode ng Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.

Paliwanag niya, “I didn't want to hurt anyone lalo na [to] let down the producers who put their money up for me, put a script on my neck. I just wanted to show them the gratitude and the effort that I put into every single day of work I've received. But at the same time, 'yon nga po, siguro, umangat 'yong isa, bumaba 'yong isa.

“I didn't want any of that to happen, lalo na with her, the mother of my child. So, for that, I'm sorry.”

Una nang humingi ng paumanhin si Rob sa kanyang ex-partner, na ina ng kanyang anak sa pamamagitan ng isang Instagram post.

Inakala ni Rob na sa pamamagitan nito ay muli niyang makakasama ang kanyang mag-ina ngunit bigo siyang mangyari ito.

“Since doon naman nag-start, sa social media, I thought it would end there,” sabi ng aktor.

“I miss them so much”

Tinanong ng GMANetwork.com kung nasubukan na niyang mag-reach out kay Shaila.

Sagot niya, “Ever since… 20 minutes since she left me. I've been the same way.”

Dahil dito, sinabi ng Magandang Dilag aktor na sobrang miss na niya ang kanyang anak.

Sa kabila ng nangyari, nananatili naman daw ang pagmamahal ni Rob kay Shaila, lalong-lalo na sa kanyang anak.

“There's a special kind of love for the mother of your child, especially now that we're not together. I miss them so much,” paglalahad ni Rob.

Lagi rin daw niyang naiisip ang paalala sa kanya ng kanyang ina, ang dating aktres na si Kate Gomez.

“[Sabi niya], keep being a father. Don't let go of who I was,” paglalahad ni Rob.

“I love my daughter. I love my daughter so much. She's named after me. Her name is Amelia Kate Robin, after my mom and me.

“I just hope that she won't find anything bad because I love her so much. One reason why I wanted a private life with my daughter is because of this exact moment.

“Now, I want her to see that I would stand up for her, any day, any time.”

How is Rob coping?

Aminado si Rob na dahil sa isyu ay may natanggap siyang mga negatibong komento. Nakatulong daw na hindi siya madalas mag-check ng social media.

“I was never the social media type. First time ko to read some negative about myself, but I know who I am and what I'm not. Wala naman pong nagbago,” aniya.

Nagpapasalamat din siya sa suportang ibinibigay ng mga taong malapit sa kanya.

“I have my family and my friends. Alam ko po, with my ex, she knows who I am,” sabi ni Rob.

Kaugnay nito, hinahayaan din niya ang sarili na maging abala sa iba't ibang bagay.

Aniya, “I wouldn't want to say distraction…I'm just more focused on work, with myself. Right now, I've been going to church a lot. Not that it changes anything, just asking for help from someone who could, you know…

“I'm back in the gym, working out by myself. Maybe start a few acting workshops again. Just grind myself to whatever shape I want to be in acting. Maybe get the body, next time nasa ibang brands na tayo.”

Sa huli, inilarawan ni Rob ang buhay niya ngayon, “It's a different life now. I used to love going to work. I usually tell this to everyone. I used to love going to work because I love going home more. Right now, it didn't feel the same.”
