Manila: Philippine President Beningo Aquino, the country's first bachelor leader, said his love life could be compared to Coca-Cola's two variants, Coke light and Coke Zero.
"Someone asked me about my love life. I said, ‘Oh, it's like Coca-Cola.' ‘I don't understand you," was the reply. So I explained, ‘In the past Coca-Cola was known as regular. It became Coca-Cola light, and now Coca-Cola Zero," Aquino joked about his love life to members of the Filipino community in Beijing.
Responsibilities
His seeming lack of commitment to all the women who have been linked with him was due to the responsibilities he has towards the country, Aquino explained.
Last June this year, Aquino was rumoured to be courting Filipino-Korean radio and TV host Grace Lee, after he called her "beautiful".
In May, he was linked to pre-school teacher Bunny Calica, when he dated her during a concert.
In mid 2011, he was linked to stock broker Len Lopez.
In early 2011, he was romantically linked to his stylist Liz Uy.
In October last year, he broke up with Shalani Soledad, councilor of Valenzuela City, after a two-year relationship.
Both parties did not explain why they parted ways.
