Given all the talk about the possible breakup of the fabled Eat Bulaga “Dabarkads” owing to alleged backstage moves to kick out the legendary triumvirate of Tito, Vic and Joey, the question has been asked: Where would the rest of the Eat Bulaga hosts and mainstays go?

Alden Richards, for instance, whose superstardom began on the show with the phenomenal “AlDub” team-up he had with Maine Mendoza — will he go with the reformatted Eat Bulaga that’s said to be in the works, or stick it out with TVJ?

Veteran showbiz insider and TV host Cristy Fermin recently said it’s the latter: If the new Eat Bulaga no longer features TVJ, then Alden won’t be in it, too — according to Alden himself, she claimed.

“Marunong tumanaw ng utang na loob si Alden! Ito po ang totoo, at sinabi niya ito sa akin na anuman daw ang offer ang ibigay sa kanya ng bagong pamunuan ng Eat Bulaga, hindi siya sasama (Alden has a sense of gratitude! This is the truth, he told me that whatever offer he gets from the new owners of Eat Bulaga, he won’t bite)“.

“Paninindigan niya ‘yung kanyang imahe bilang mapagkumbaba, marunong tumanaw ng utang na loob, hindi nakalilimot (He will stick by his image as a humble person who doesn’t forget and has a sense of gratitude), Fermin added. Alam ni Alden ‘yan na ang Eat Bulaga ang gumawa sa AlDub (Alden knows it was Eat Bulaga that made AlDub).”
