Young actor Coco Martin is keeping his distance from Kris Aquino and James Yap’s impending separation.

Martin, Aquino’s co-star in the now defunct teleserye “Kung Tayo’y Magkakalayo,” is being romantically linked to the actress-television host. The young actor vehemently denied the speculation, saying he considers Aquino as his older sister.

He also said he has high respect for the actress and her family.

“Nagkaroon na ng ganyang isyu noon, which is hindi naman kami naapektuhan. Kumbaga hinahayaan na lang namin ang mga tao. Hindi naman namin maco-control kung ano ang iisipin nila at sasabihin sa amin,” Martin said after signing a 4-film contract with ABS-CBN’s movie outfit Star Cinema on Monday.

He also admitted that he is still in constant communication with his “Ate Kris.” “Sabi ko nga kung alam lang nila kung gaano kabait ang Aquino family at ang pagsuporta at ang suportang binibigay sa akin ni Ate Kris.”

Did he ever give an advice to Aquino regarding her marriage to Yap?

“Unang una, mas matanda siya sa akin. Nahihiya naman ako na ako pa ang mag-advice or magsalita sa ganyang bagay. Lalong lalo na nai-isyu kami parang ayokong [magsalita]. Alam ko naman na kayang kaya na ni Ate Kris yan. Ako sa mga naitutulong nila sa akin, sobra akong nagpapasalamat,” he said.

Martin said, as a friend, he hopes Aquino and Yap will eventually reconcile for the sake of their son, 3-year-old Baby James. He said he already met Yap and he found him nice.

Aside from Martin, Aquino is also romantically linked to young actor Gerald Anderson, Sen. Francis Escudero and Makati Mayor Jejomar “Junjun” Binay Jr.

When asked to comment on Aquino’s alleged new love, Martin said: “Ako personally hindi ako naniniwala doon. Sa pagkakakilala ko kay Ms. Kris, sa dami ng iniisip niya, sa dami ng ginagawa niya, wala na siyang panahon sa ganoong bagay.”

1st mainstream film

Dubbed as Prince of Indie due to his numerous independent movies, Martin is set to star in his first ever mainstream film titled “Sa ‘Yo Lamang.” He will star alongside Zanjoe Marudo, Christopher de Leon, Lorna Tolentino, Enchong Dee, Bea Alonzo and Shaina Magdayao.

Magdayao will be his love interest in the film.

“Sobrang excited ako kasi ito ang kauna-unahan kong mainstream na pelikula. Tapos siyempre ang director ko pa dito ay si direk Laurice Guillen na sobrang galing,” Martin said.

He is also scheduled to do a suspense-horror film titled “Dalaw” under Star Cinema, with Diether Ocampo, Mariel Rodriguez, Maja Salvador and Aquino.

Another movie with hunk actor John Lloyd Cruz is also lined-up for him.

While he is excited to do mainstream movies, Martin is not turning his back on independent films. “Hindi ko iiwan kasi doon ako nagsimula at never, never kong tatalikuran ‘yong pinanggalingan ko.”
