Chanda Romero, Bernardo Bernardo
IKA nga nila, “Love knows no boundaries.”
Ito ang pinatunayan ng nagging pagmamahalan ng batikang aktres na si Chanda Romero at ng namayapang openly gay actor na si Bernardo Bernardo.
Sa panayam with King of Talk Boy Abunda, nag-open up si Chanda patungkol sa kakaibang love relationship nila ni Bernardo.
Ayon sa veteran actress, hindi naging hadlang ang sexual preferences sa kanilang pagmamahalan.
Naikuwento pa niya kung paano naging kakaiba ang kanilang relasyon kumpara sa mga straight na lalaki na kanyang naging partner.
“That was different because I think looking back, that was very special, because ‘yun ang talagang I loved him as he was,” sey niya.

Paliwanag pa niya, “It didn’t matter to me what his sexual preference was, but I loved him because it was him. I just loved the whole of him.”
Chinika rin ni Chanda na tila parang silang mag-bestfriends, lalo na kapag nagsasabi si Bernardo sa kanya ng mga nagiging “crush” o nakikitaan ng paghanga.
“Minsan nga kapag sinasabi niya na, ‘Meron akong bagong crush diyan,’ ‘Hindi! Samahan kita, tingnan ko muna. Kailangan i-approve ko muna,” pagbabahagi ng aktres.
Dagdag pa niya, “When Bernardo loved me when we were together, it was one of the few times that I knew it was really love between the both of us. And it was taboo.”
“We were just so unafraid and so proud of having found each other. We were both happy,” ani pa niya.
Taong 2013 nang ikinasal si Chanda sa kanyang longtime partner na si Jose Mari “Mayi” Alejandrino.
Sa kasalukuyan, tampok ang aktres sa GMA series na “Black Rider.”
Samantala, si Bernardo ay pumanaw noong March 2018 dahil sa tumor sa pancreas o lapay.
