Bea Alonzo's Spanish trip sparks romance rumors with Vincent Co

A scenic beach, a mystery companion, and matching vacation photos — has Bea Alonzo found a new flame in business heir Vincent Co?

Romance rumors surrounding Kapuso actress Bea Alonzo reignited on Monday, 5 May 2025, after a photo began making the rounds on social media. The image shows a man and a woman walking hand-in-hand along a beach, their backs to the camera, setting off a wave of speculation online.

According to reports, the photo was originally posted on Instagram by businessman Vincent Co and is believed to have been taken in Andalucía, Spain — a region Bea also recently visited, as seen in her own Instagram posts.

Although Co didn’t tag or identify the woman in the photo, internet sleuths were quick to spot the clues. On 21 and 24 April, Bea had uploaded vacation photos from Andalucía and Sevilla, wearing a beige blazer, black skirt, and white sneakers — the same outfit worn by the mystery woman in Co’s post. Observers also pointed out that the woman’s hairstyle strongly resembled Bea’s.

Adding fuel to the speculation, fans noticed that Bea had liked Co’s post, further stoking buzz about a possible romance.

While neither Bea nor Vincent has confirmed a relationship, sources say Co has been quietly and consistently courting the actress. So far, both parties have maintained a low profile, with no public sightings or official statements.

Who Is Vincent Co?

Ferdinand Vincent Co, the man rumored to be Bea’s new love interest, may not be a household name, but he is a major figure in Philippine business. He has served as president of Puregold Price Club, one of the country’s largest supermarket chains, since 2015.

Now in his early 40s, Co earned a degree in Entrepreneurial Management from the University of Asia and the Pacific in 2003. He comes from a prominent business dynasty: his parents, Lucio and Susan Co, founded the Puregold empire. Lucio served as chairman from 1998 to 2023 before Susan took over in 2024.

Beyond Puregold, Co holds leadership roles in affiliated companies such as Premier Wine and Spirits and various property and energy ventures. He is also a major player in The Keepers Holdings, the Philippines’ largest liquor importer, valued at P40 billion. In 2022, the company acquired a 50 percent stake in the 250-hectare Bodegas Williams & Humbert winery, located in Andalusia, Spain, which could be the very location of the now-viral beach photo.

As for Bea, it has been over a year since she ended her engagement with actor Dominic Roque. The two were in a relationship for about three years, beginning in January 2021, and got engaged before confirming their breakup in February 2024.

Whether this marks the beginning of a new chapter in Bea’s love life or is simply another internet-fueled rumor, fans remain keenly interested in the quiet but intriguing connection between the beloved actress and the low-key tycoon.
