Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards were reportedly seen while on a date last Saturday, 25 May.
The two were with Bernardo’s best friend Alora Sasam and the venue they were spotted dining at was Hotplace located at the chichi Bonifacio Global City (BGC).
That’s according to a TikTok creator who saw the three actors while dining.
Interestingly, the date was of significance to Bernardo as one netizen claimed in one Facebook page that it was the anniversary of the actress and former boyfriend Daniel Padilla.
“One significant detail is that 25 May is Kathryn and her ex’s anniversary deserve mapalitan (to change the) memories. Alden was supposed to attend an awarding ceremony in Japan but was spotted with Kathryn and Alora instead. Not sure what to make of it, I don’t know if this is part of the promo for Hello, Love, Again or if they simply like spending time together — as friends or something more, I don’t care, anyway. Sa dami ng pinagdaanan nilang pareho (with all that they have gone through) I’m just happy that two of the kindest people in show business are now enjoying their private time together,” the netizen said.
Ivana Alawi and Ogie Diaz kissed and made up
All’s well that ends well between Ivana Alawi and Ogie Diaz as the former finally reached out to the latter.
After reporting in his YouTube vlog about Alawi’s act of snubberry, Diaz sang a different tune.
Diaz, in a report, shared that he noticed how Alawi did not even make an effort to be nice to him during his recent visit to the set of FPJ’s Batang Quiapo. He was there to visit his ward Kim Rodriguez.
Diaz shared in his Showbiz Update vlog with Mama Loi and Ate Mrena that in his next visit to the set, Alawi approached him and threshed things out.
“’Di ba hindi ako pinansin ni Ivana? O, ‘di nag-exert ng effort si Ivana para alam mo ‘yun, magkapaliwanagan kami at magkaayos kami (Did you notice that Alawi did not pay attention to me — she did not exert any effort? But just so you know, we threshed out the misunderstanding and we ironed things out),” Diaz said.
“Sabi ko nga sa kanya, ‘alam mo sobra kong na-appreciate ang effort mo. You really went out of your way to reach out, sobrang appreciate ko ‘yung effort mo. Kung naka-offend sa kanya ‘yung mga naikuwento natin dito (sa show), ‘yung encounter ko sa kanya na hindi niya ako pinansin, okay na kami. Sabi ko, ‘Next time pag may concern ka o may concern ako magtawagan tayo.’ O, di all’s well that ends well (I told her that I really appreciate her effort to reach out. If I offended her by what said on this show and the encounter we had where she ignored me — it is all water under the bridge. I told her that if in the future we have a misunderstanding we should just call each other),” he said.
Cassy Legaspi pens heartfelt birthday message to Darren Espanto
There is no animosity between Cassy Legaspi and Darren Espanto and this is best shown when the latter marked his 23rd birthday last 25 May.
To greet him, Legaspi posted a collage of photos on her Instagram page, which capture them during their happiest moments.
Legaspi’s birthday greeting was also saccharine.
“My bestest friend. I’ll keep this short but sweet, but all I wanna say is stay kind and true to yourself always D (alam mo na ‘yun.... hehe) don’t forget to pace yourself and take care of yourself.”
“You already know that I’m always here for you and I always have been @darrenespanto,” she added.
Espanto caused a stir on social media when he revealed that he and Legaspi were just friends when many believed they were already a couple.
In a statement, Legaspi acknowledged Espanto’s revelation, saying that friendship is all there is between them.
