UNLIKE Phil Younghusband na nakakapagsalita ng Tagalog, ang kapatid niyang si James naman ay hirap-hirap nu’ng makausap namin sa launch ng Gatorade-Chelsea Blue Pitch sa Circuit, Makati.
“That’s my New Year’s resolution. I want to keep a regular lesson. I have to serve my people. If I want to serve the people well, I have to speak Tagalog,” ani James.
Nanonood daw siya ng local shows sa TV5 para matuto. Pati teleserye ay pinanonood din niya. Then, we asked him kung panonoorin ba niya ang bagong teleserye ni Angel kahit nakipag-break na ito kay Phil.
“I still watch local shows. No matter who she is I will always support and watch local shows,” sagot niya. She still likes Angel kahit na sinaktan nito ang puso ng kapatid niya, “She’s a great role model for young girls and inspiration to some people,” papuri niya kay Angel.
Knows sa showbiz na naging malapit si Angel sa pamilya nila. Kaya ‘di naman naitago ni James ang damdamin niya na he felt disappointed nu’ng mag-break si Phil at Angel.
“I understand that one has a reason and who knows maybe in the future. One thing also, watching as an older brother, a career for my brother, he responded very well as a professional athlete and hes doing very well for the Philippine football team,” pahayag niya.
Close rin kay Angel ang little sister nina Phil and James. Ate Angel daw ang tawag ng bunso nila sa aktres. Tinanong din namin si James kung ano ang masasabi niya kay KC Concepcion na nali-link kay Phil.
Natawa muna si James bago sumagot, “I’m not so sure I haven’t met her personally.” Type ba niya si KC for his brother? “Ah, never,” iling niya. “My brother I think, as I said he has done very well as an athlete.
At the moment he’s just focussing on football. We have a big tournament this year.”
