The 43-year-old actor went on to emphasize the value of love in the face of differences. “Mahirap pagsamahin… mga hindi magkakadugo, di ba. Pero, pagka nanaig ‘yung pagmamahal, ‘yun talagang binali mo ‘yung kung gaano kaimportante ‘yung isang tao sa pamilya ninyo, magiging mas maganda ‘yung pagsasama ninyo. Mas magiging magaan kapag natanggap niyo ‘yung isa’t isa, magiging maganda na ‘yung flow ng lahat.”

Trillo stated that as a blended family, they have become closer than ever before. “Siyempre sa umpisa, kailangan talagang mag-effort, kailangang walang susuko talaga. Ngayon naman, nararamdaman namin na mas maganda na ‘yung pagsasamahan. Kaya siguro napapansin na ng ibang brands ‘yung samahan namin bilang isang pamilya, na kahit hindi kami magkakadugo, siyempre, solid pa rin ‘yung samahan namin.”

He went on to say that what is most important is time and love for one another. “‘Yun ang importante. Kumbaga, hindi nasusubukan sa dugo. Sa puso, sa quality nung time na binibigay mo, ‘yun lahat [ang] mas nagma-matter.”

“Natutuwa ako sa kanilang dalawa, sa mga lalaki namin, dahil first time namin nagkaroon ng isang bunso, tapos babae pa. Kumbaga, napaka-thankful ko na mayroon siyang mga kuya na laging nagbabantay sa kanya, tagasuporta, tagapagtanggol paglaki niya. Natutuwa ako na napaka-harmonious na ‘yung pagsasama nilang lahat, at nararamdaman ko ‘yung pagmamahal na nararamdaman nila sa isa’t isa," he said.

“Sa tingin ko, huwag lang maghiwalay ang pamilya at gusto ko magkasama kami hanggang sa dulo. Sa ngayon, ‘yun ang wish ko. Mga materyal na bagay at career, kuntento na ako. Masaya na kami. Sana madala namin ‘yung pagmamahalan namin hanggang sa huling hininga ng buhay namin,” he said.
