JAKARTA - Actor Gading Marten will again celebrate Christmas with his extended family and daughter, Gempita Nora Marten and his ex-wife, Gisella Anastasia on the Island of the Gods Bali.

"Following, Gempi, Gisel will all basically gather in Bali," said Gading Marten in the Bogor area, West Java, Monday, December 11.

At this one year moment, Gading said that his family had a tradition that should not be missed. He explained that every December 25 he would gather with his family to exchange gifts.

"Tradition is normal, on the 25th you must gather at papa's house, exchange gifts. Usually, you always gather together on the 25th and exchange gifts into sanitary bags for friends," explained Gading Marten.

This gift exchange was also made to the only daughter with Gisella Anastasia, Gempita. He said that his daughter could not wait to open the gift that Gading would give.

However, Gading tried to teach Gempi to respect the tradition in the family, namely opening gifts together with other families on Christmas Day.

"Yesterday he asked for something and he said, 'can he give it now?', 'not yet Christmas', even though he already knows what there must be a tradition of opening the gift wrap, which is fun, right," concluded Gading.
