James Reid and Nadine Lustre spilled details about their nearly two-year relationship in a candid interview on the TV talk show “Gandang Gabi Vice.”

While JaDine has been open about their onscreen-turned-offscreen romance, they were still coy in revealing certain information.

For instance, when Reid slipped up on Lustre’s special nickname for him, the actress appeared flustered.

The 24-year-old actor-singer shared that she affectionately calls him “bum bum.”

When asked why, Lustre hesitated, then simply pointed at her butt. “Kasi cute yung pwet niya (Because he has a cute butt),” she explained laughing. 

“Confirmation number one, nakita na ni Nadine yung pwet ni James (Nadine has seen James’ butt)!” Vice squealed. 

“No no no,” laughed James.

Lustre went on to explain, “Yung mga nasa gym, kasi nagwoworkout, so maumbok. Yung sa kanya kasi medyo conservative (When you work out at the gym, the butt tends to stick out. His is quite conservative).”

Reid said that Lustre now tells him, “‘Bum bum, can I tell you about my day?’” as she is working on opening up more about her thoughts and feelings.

“Since last year ang dami kong pinagdaanan, yung mood swings ko iba. Para siyang roller coaster talaga (Since last year I went through so much, my mood swings were different, it felt like a roller coaster),” he said. 

“It’s funny, especially kung araw-araw kayong magkasama (if every day you’re together), you feel like you don’t need to talk about these things, but I think over time you forget or you take it for granted so she decided to tell me everything, her whole day, like open up more.”

Vice then grilled them on a more intimate level. “Sabay ba kayo natutulog (Do you sleep together)?” 

“Depende (It depends),” replied Lustre.

“Magkatabi ba kayong natutulog (Do you sleep next to each other)?” Vice asked. 

“Sa shoot, ganun,” Lustre answered hesitantly.

“Sa service, sa plane,” Reid chimed in.

Vice couldn’t help but be amused as he observed that even Lustre felt her answer was corny.

He also probed them on their cuddle habits. Lustre confirmed that Reid was affectionate with hugs and that she puts her legs up on him.

“Sinisiksik ko talaga (I stay really close),” she said. 

Vice asked, “Kahit ang laki-laki ng kama, sisiksik ka (No matter how big the bed is, you’ll stick with him)?” to which Reid said yes.

Lustre was quick to correct Vice’s tricky question when asked, “Gaano kalaki kama n’yo (How big is your bed)? King size?”

“Niya, niya! Bakit n’yo (His, his! Why ‘our’)?” remarked the actress. 

They also said they visited each other’s house instead of living under one roof.

And when it came to the question of “sleepovers,” the two remained mum, with Lustre reacting and Reid remaining cool. They both smiled until Lustre shrugged and said, “Next question!”

The couple will celebrate their second anniversary in February. They are also preparing for their second major concert together, “Revolution,” on Feb. 9 and are working on the movie “Never Not Love You.”  Niña V. Guno /ra
