Cristina reveals that she peels her boyfriend's fruit: “It’s not subservience”

Cristina Ferreira accepted Ana Guiomar's invitation to participate in the videocast "The Knower of Love". The episode with the famous guest host is already available on all platforms and brings unique revelations about the relationship with her boyfriend, João Monteiro. 

“ My mother's life has arranged the fruit for my father. To this day, and they have been together for more than 50 years”, began by affirming the presenter, explaining what love is to you and how it can be related to the simplest things in life and food.

“My mom peels the apple, whatever it is for my dad. A lot of people might find that subservience. I always found that fascinating, because it was the moment at the end of the meal that my mother once again told my father: i am here for you, this is my act of love.”

Years later, the story repeats itself and now it is Cristina Ferreira, 49 years old, who spoils her boyfriend, João Monteiro, 32 years old, with an equal gesture. 

“John played with it when I said it and suddenly I started to fix the fruit for John. Today he says, it's one of the best things in life, it's the fruit you get“, she revealed, leaving Ana Guiomar with her chin down with her confession. 

“ That's anything but subservience, that's telling her I like you. Isn’t this fascinating?” she questioned, leading the actress to confess that she didn’t imagine doing such a thing. 

“ We think that strong women and leaders can never make gestures of affection or put a table, or whatever it is for their companion. Is there something more beautiful than that? Or things he makes me out of nowhere, like giving me a bouquet of flowers just because he does. 

I'm gonna take a shower, John's gonna go every time and get my towel and get it ready for when I get out of the shower. So this isn't so beautiful to understand? That's love, much more than posting pictures on the Internet saying you love or this or that. I always suspect”, he added. 

“What exists inside the house and these little gestures are in fact what shows that the other person takes care of you, likes you, love takes care of and care can be that, give the towel, peel the fruit, whatever it is”, the communicator ended.
