Maja Salvador reveals Rambo is exception to her personal rule never to date exes again

Love is sweeter the second time around for Maja Salvador and Rambo Nuñez Ortega!

On Monday's episode of "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda," Maja said Rambo was the only guy who made her say yes to going back to an ex.

According to Maja, she became Rambo's girlfriend when she was 21 years old. They stayed together for roughly four months, but they eventually called it quits.

"Nung unang naging kami, kailangan ko i-sacrifice 'yung relationship namin para sa family ko at sa career ko pero siya, sigurado sa 'kin eh," Maja said.

"Sinabi niya 'yun kay mama, na if may pera lang siya, if kaya niya lang ako buhayin, papatigilin na niya ako mag artista," she added.

At that time, Maja said Rambo was selfless enough to let her go so she can pursue her dreams.

In March 2019, Maja and Rambo got back together.

"Sabi ko [sa sarili ko], walang balikan [sa ex] pero sobrang laking bagay talaga nung family niya," she said.

According to Maja, Rambo's mom made her feel like she was already part of their family.

"Pinaramdam niya na anak niya rin ako, 'yung mas kakampi siya sa 'kin kesa kay Rambo," she said.

Maja and Rambo announced their engagement in April 2022. They are set to tie the knot sometime in July this year.
