He relayed on the show that his relationship with Maja became stronger because of the event. At the start of 2012, the couple finally became more open about their love for each other during their interviews and guestings for their first-movie together and Matteo's first starring movie role, My Cactus Heart. However, the two broke up about six months after their movie was released. Maja then gave in her later interview that she and Matteo will only be just friends.
