Eddie Gutierrez teared up as he recalled fond memories with his longtime screen partner, Queen of Philippine Movies Susan Roces, who passed away last Friday, May 20. READ:
“Parang all of a sudden, naging malungkot siya. Nagpaalam na kami. Sabi niya sa akin, ‘Take care.’ Sabi ko, ‘Ikaw rin, take care. Mahal na mahal kita, Susan.’ ‘Ikaw rin,’ sabi niya, ‘Mahal kita,’” he recalled.
“Lahat ‘yun naging box office at talagang naging kaibigan ko siya for 60 years, baka more… Naging very close kami,” he said. “Sabi ng ibang fans, ‘Eddie, hindi mo ba naging girlfriend si Susan?’ Sabi ko, ‘Hindi. Never kong niligawan si Susan. We were just partners.'” “Nung kukunan na ng picture, sabi ni Susan, ‘Wait! Wait!’ Hinawakan niya si Rosemarie, ibinalibag! Tumabi siya ngayon kay Elvis,” Gutierrez recalled, laughing.
