Cristine Reyes opened up about her separation from former husband Ali Khatibi, saying their marriage did not work out because they were “not mature enough” to handle their responsibilities as parents to their daughter Amarah.
“Are you on good terms with Amarah’s dad?” broadcaster Karen Davila asked the actress in an interview, as seen on the former’s YouTube vlog on Thursday, March 21.
“Casual,” Reyes answered. “I don’t want to always put my guard down kasi I don’t want to get hurt; that’s why my guards are up.”
Further asked on how their relationship fell apart, Reyes admitted, “It didn’t work out because we’re not mature enough to handle the responsibility of being mom and dad, and being in a marriage. [We were] both not ready.”
Reyes then noted that she is still not ready for another marriage now, but “sometime soon.”
