Daniel Matsunaga is excited to become a first-time uncle now that her sister, Vanessa, is due to give birth to their first baby in the family anytime soon.
But he also wants to have his own children someday with girlfriend Erich Gonzales.
Matsunaga said: “Mag-asawa, siyempre gusto ko. May plans ako with Erich especially. Pero siyempre trabaho muna. Ipon muna, and plan things first before you do anything in life. In God’s timing.”
For now, Matsunaga said he and Gonzales are focused on their daytime soap “Be My Lady.”
“Kaunti lang ang tulog, parating puyat pero sobrang saya and sobrang blessed. Actually this is the first time I’m really doing extra effort talaga kasi mahal ko ‘yung show. ‘Yung role ko doon, it really affects me. It’s super nice,” he said.
Matsunaga said he and the rest of the cast are also happy about how the show is doing in terms of ratings.

“I’m really enjoying this acting stint. Kahit mainit, kahit always under the sun, super enjoy ko ‘yung show. Maganda ‘yung story and very positive ‘yung feedback. Everything is going well and this is just the third week,” he said.
According to data from Kantar Media, “Be My Lady” debuted strongly in January, earning a remarkable 18.3% rating, almost 10 percentage points higher than its rival show.
Directed by Ted Boborol, “Be My Lady” also stars Priscilla Meirelles, Janice de Belen, Al Tantay, Yayo Aguila, Yves Flores, Devon Seron and Karen Reyes. It airs weekdays before “It’s Showtime.” (MNS)
