Raymond began his career in the entertainment industry as a television host, showcasing his natural charisma and flair for connecting with audiences.

However, as his career flourished, Raymond realized the importance of prioritizing his health and well-being. In a culture that often emphasizes external appearances, Raymond’s journey towards holistic wellness became a significant aspect of his personal narrative.

One of the notable milestones in Raymond’s transformation was his commitment to fitness. He embarked on a fitness journey that involved rigorous training, a disciplined diet, and a dedication to a healthier lifestyle.

“Find a program that works for you and do something you enjoy,” he said.

Raymond emphasized the importance of having a coach in his own fitness journey. Additionally, he placed a significant focus on maintaining a healthy diet. He emphasized that the visible results are not an overnight success but rather the outcome of numerous hours spent in the gym, a transformation in dietary habits, and the assistance of a supportive community to accomplish his objectives. Concluding on an encouraging note, Raymond affirmed, “What you see here isn’t an overnight success story; it’s the product of many hours in the gym, changing my eating habits, and finding the support group to help me achieve my goals. It’s never too late to change your life. If I can do it, so can you,”

Beyond the physical aspect, Raymond Gutierrez has been vocal about his mental and emotional well-being. In an industry where the pressures can be intense, he openly discussed the importance of mental health and self-acceptance. Raymond’s journey reflects a shift in the conversation within the entertainment world, encouraging a more open dialogue about the challenges individuals face behind the scenes.

On August 1, 2021, Gutierrez publicly came out as gay in an interview with MEGA Entertainment magazine. He said:

I was never not out. I never denied who I was. I just never shared my story publicly until now.

Growing up, it took a while for me to face my true identity, and figuring it out wasn’t easy. I went through a long period of time hating myself because society taught me that being different wasn’t the right path, especially for someone growing up in the public eye. I went through a dark phase of self-destruction — creating unhealthy habits to have some sort of escape so I didn’t have to face my reality. I kept things to myself because I was scared to bring shame to my family, and didn’t know how others would treat me.

I’m thankful to those close to me — my friends and family for giving me the confidence to embrace myself fully without judgement. I consider myself lucky because some people don’t have a support system they can run to. Which is exactly why I’m sharing my story now. Because if there’s one thing I learned this past year and a half is that life is fleeting. I want to encourage those who feel alone that it’s never too late to love yourself, acknowledge those feelings and face your fears — because it feels damn good to be on the other side.

Sexuality shouldn’t define who you are and it should never hinder your greatness. For me personally, being in touch with my masculine and feminine side allowed me to push boundaries creatively and create magic with the projects I do. So, to those saying “we knew”, you never knew my story and my struggles. And if you’re reading this and you feel like you’re alone, I want to let you know that I went through the same things — you will be loved, your feelings are valid, and those who truly love you will stick around.

The 40-year-old Filipino host is currently in a relationship with Robert William.
