Ricky Martin believes in 'connect' before marriage

MUMBAI: Ricky Martin believes in the institution of marriage, but says feels it is first important to share a deeper connect with the person one decides to settle down with.

"For me that paper is important. I also love the romanticism behind it. I am single now after seven years. I meet people. I'm fine. I meet very handsome men. I like to have a conversation, looking into someone's eyes and finding out their sense of humour.”

"I'm not saying you have to be an Adonis, but you have to connect," the 43-year-old crooner, who split from businessman boyfriend Carlos Gonzalez Abella in January 2014, told The Sun newspaper, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The ‘Livin' la Vida Loca’ hitmaker, whose six-year-old twins Matteo and Valentino were born via surrogate in 2008, is very careful about who he introduces to his children.

He said, "We're all men. It's in our DNA to go for it. But I have two boys and I cannot bring different men every day into my house."

Martin struggled to adjust to being a single father when he and Abella split, but they are now on good terms.

"He comes to see the kids. There was a year of silence but now we're buddies. I try to keep my life very civilised, that's what I need for the well-being of my children. The first year as a single father with twins was insanity. I had eye bags down to my knees but it was the most beautiful year of my life," he said.
