"Well, right before the wedding kasi medyo naging busy talaga. 'Yun nga one of the reasons na nag-leave muna ako sa 'Showtime.’ Para I can concentrate with Coleen, my marriage, the wedding planning. After the wedding nagpagawa naman ng bahay. So instead naman na magpaasa pa ako na 'Oo, babalik ako, babalik ako,' I just took time off na lang," said Billy while holding Coleen’s hands during the interview.

The 36-year-old actor-singer also announced his upcoming album, which according to him, took nine years to finish. “And it gave me time to concentrate and to focus on myself, my marriage, also my passion din 'yung music ko. So finally after nine years, natapos ko na ang album ko.”

“It's part of my life, my music. It's part of my passion. So hindi ko puwedeng madaliin at hindi ko puwedeng basta-basta gawin lang din. And 'yung inspiration din coming from Coleen is there. Lahat it's all part of the plan," Billy added.
