Child Actor Nathaniel Britt Has A Bad Experience With Own Father

CHILD ACTOR Nathaniel Britt was noticed playing the young Piolo Pascual in “Dahil sa Pag-ibig”. He was really good and everyone in the press preview then asked: Who’s that boy? He wasn’t at the preview then so no one got to interview him, but we finally met him in person while we’re having breakfast at the Gordian Hotel in Vigan where he’s playing Rocco Nacino’s sidekick who turns into a chicken in “Lam-Ang”.

Nathaniel was born on August 11, 2000. He’s the eldest of three boys. “We live in Angeles at nagbu-bus lang po kami ng lola ko when we go to Manila,” he says.

How come it’s his lola who looks after him? “Yung mama ko po, nasa States. May asawa ng iba at may bagong baby boy na rin siya roon. Ang papa ko naman po, hindi na namin nakikita at ayoko na siyang makita.” Why? “Sinasaktan po niya kami ng mommy ko.”

His lola said: “Yung papa nila, half-Italian. Abad ang apelyido. Yung Britt, sa ama ng daughter ko, an American. Salbahe yung ama nito. Nakita lang kami sa mall ang mister ko, sinaktan kami. Pizza delivery boy yun nang makilala ng anak ko.”

Nathaniel was first discovered to do TV commercials, then he joined GMA’s “Jollitown”. “Nakuha rin po akong young Dennis Trillo in ‘Dwarfina’. Si Direk Maryo de los Reyes po ang manager ko. Ginawa ko rin po ang ‘Felina’ sa TV5 tapos nakuha nga akong young Piolo sa ‘Dahil sa Pag-ibig’. Itong ‘Lam-ang’ ang first movie ko. Masaya naman po kami dito sa Vigan kasi mabait si Kuya Rocco at si Direk Ana.”

In two more years, he’ll be a teenager and he certainly looks like he’s going to be a major heartthrob.
