Actress Sarah Lahbati has finally addressed rumors surrounding her marriage to actor Richard Gutierrez.

“We’re okay,” said Sarah during an exclusive interview for the digital edition of Cosmopolitan Philippines.

Sarah added: “I'm holding up pretty well. I'm happy. Again, I'm grateful. There's nothing more to say than I'm really feeling blessed. And it's a good time to just work on myself.”

Sarah also said she is someone who prefers to take things in stride.

“I'm calm and aiming for a grand slam. Because you can be calm while you're aiming for your biggest goals. There's nothing like functioning at a calm level when things are being thrown at you and you're being challenged and going through difficulties that you can't control. That's how you grow as a person and achieve greater things. That’s when opportunities come flowing through your door," she said in the same interview.

It was late last year when rumors floated that Sarah and Richard had separated. However, both celebrities remained silent about the controversy. Sarah only responded to the rumors this month.

In January, Sarah started fresh when she revealed she was moving into a new place.

Sarah posted photos on Instagram of her unfurnished and unrenovated home. It was captioned: "Switching up the mood for 2024." Then she mentioned scouting for an interior designer for her new home.
