“Nung una kong narinig ang istorya tungkol kay Calvin na iniwan ng asawa, sumama sa iba, nagbalik at tinanggap uli ni Calvin, tapos iniwan uli sila ng mga anak nila, bigla akong naging fan ni Calvin,” she said.

The television host also complimented Abueva as a husband and as a man, adding “Hindi ba napakabait ng isang tao na ang laki ng puso na magpatawad?”

Solis noted how Abueva, being open and not ashamed of his closeness with Vice Ganda, made her admire him even more.

“Ngayon at sinasabi ni Vice Ganda na si Calvin Abueva lang daw ang basketball player na open at hindi ikinahihiya ang pagiging close nilang dalawa, lalo pa akong humanga sa kanya,” she said.

“A person, lalo na isang lalaki na open sa feeling niya, na hindi homophobic, na natural ang tingin sa mga pangyayari ay kahanga-hanga at may tapang para sa akin. Calvin is one man worthy of respect and love,” Solis added.

Speculations of Vice Ganda and Calvin Abueva dating have been circulating in social media recently.

But the comedian finally ended this rumor in a recent interview at “Tonight With Boy Abunda” confirming that he and the basketball player are not dating.

Nonetheless, Vice Ganda expressed how he values his friendship with Abueva: “Sobra ko po siyang naa-appreciate kasi sa dinami-dami ng naging kaibigan ko na basketball players, iilan lang doon ang naging proud na, ‘Malapit na malapit talaga ako kay Vice.’”
