John Prats is so proud of his nephew, Nathan, son of his sister Camille. "Kahit baby pa, lalaking- lalaki ang hitsura," he says. "Moreno ang kulay, nagmana sa father niya (Anthony Linsangan), hindi sa family namin kasi mapuputi kami, e. Iba rin ang feeling when I saw him first after they came home from the States and I realized na uncle na ako."

So does he intend to wed soon and have his own baby? "I'm not ready yet and also, marami pa akong planong gawin sa buhay ko."

What's the score now between him and Shaina Magdayao? "We're exclusively dating. But I don't know yet kung kailan niya ibibigay ang kanyang matamis na oo. Okay lang naman sa akin ang maghintay kasi bata pa rin si Shaina. She's only 18. There's no reason for us to rush things."

Is he aware that it was he who broke up the Shaina-Rayver Cruz love team? "Actually, puede naman ngayong tangkilikin ng audience ang isang love team kahit hindi sila talaga ang on in real life. And for the record, wala kaming samaan ng loob ni Rayver at all."

John reprises his screaming gay role in "Manay Po 2: Overload" where Polo Ravales and Jiro Manio are his equally gay brothers, with Cherry Pie Picache as their mom who has accepted graciously that all her sons are gay.
