Sanya Lopez on her love life: 'Mailap'

Sanya Lopez has opened up about her love life, and said that the right guy has yet to come to her.

In an interview on “Updated with Nelson Canlas,” the Kapuso actress said that although she wishes for a partner and is open for love, she has not met her person yet.

“Jusko, hanggang ngayon, hindi pa binibigay sa atin, Tito Nelson. Bakit kaya 'no?” Sanya said.

She added, “Alam mo [ang sabi], kapag daw swerte ka sa career, talagang pagdating sa lovelife, mailap sa atin 'no?”

However, as one of the most in-demand actresses today, Sanya said that making time for somebody is the biggest challenge.

“Parang ang hirap pumasok sa isang love life na hindi mo maibigay 'yung tamang oras para sa kanya,” she said. “Kasi ako, 'di ba parang nabanggit ko 'yun before na kapag may binigay sa akin isang bagay, focus talaga ako doon. Kaya nung binigay sa akin yung mga trabaho, talagang tutok ako.”

“Kaya lang 'yung may mga moment talaga na ang demand nila sa akin time. Kasi mas nagfofocus talaga ako kung ano 'yung pinaka feeling ko priority,” she added.

Additionally, she has had a lot of suitors but things don't work out.

“Kaya lang may mga pagkakataon talaga, Tito Nelson, na ligaw part pa lang, nasa ligawan stage pa lang kami, nakikilala ko na siya agad,” Sanya said.  

“So parang may moment ako na umaatras na ako kasi, ay ligawan pa lang 'to, pero nakikita mo na 'yung ugali niya,” she added.

Sanya refused to say whether a fellow artist had courted her.

However, she added that she remains grateful for her life and is happy being single.

“Parang hindi pa ako umabot po sa part na gustong-gusto ko na [ang love life], 'yung parang sige na ibigay niyo sa akin 'to, parang ganun,” she said. “Hindi pa naman ako umabot sa ganun. Ayoko rin naman umabot sa ganun. Kasi so far, Tito Nelson, lahat ng nangyayari sa akin, happy talaga ako eh.”

In 2023, Sanya made waves for acting in “Mga Lihim ni Urduja.”

Sanya is part of the upcoming historical drama series “Pulang Araw.” She joins a star-studded cast of Barbie Forteza, David Licauco, and Alden Richards.

Sanya is also set to return as Danaya in “Sang’gre.” —Nika Roque/JCB, GMA Integrated News
