Actress-vlogger AJ Raval has admitted that she and her “Nerisa” co-star Aljur Abrenica is in the process of “getting to know each other,” amid speculations they are dating.
Raval spoke up about the real score between her and Abrenica in an exclusive interview with Jimpy Anarcon for PEP TV, as seen on YouTube yesterday, Oct. 5.
“Hindi ako magpapakaipokrita. ‘Di na ako magsisinungaling, ‘di na ako magde-deny, kasi mukha lang kaming tanga kapag nag-deny kami,” she told Anarcon. “Totoo naman na nag-uusap kami.”
(I won’t be hypocritical about it. I won’t lie, I won’t deny it, because we would only look stupid if we denied it. It’s true that we have been talking to each other.)
Raval also confirmed that she was referring to Abrenica when she talked about a suitor in a vlog with Donnalyn Bartolome last month.
“We understand each other, we care for each other. Pero wala pa kami sa point na may relasyon kami. Parang we’re getting to know [each other],” she stressed.
(We’re not yet at that point where we’re in a relationship. It’s like we’re getting to know each other.)
Rumors romantically linking Abrenica and Raval circulated online after the vlogger responded to Facebook posts by internet personality Xian Gaza last week. Gaza had claimed a certain “AA” invited “Ms. Viva” over to his home for “Netflix & Chill,” adding that she was not the reason behind the split between “AA” and one “KP.”
While Gaza did not mention any names, fans speculated “AA” referred to Abrenica, “KP” stands for his estranged wife, Kylie Padilla, and “Ms. Viva” was Raval.
Kylie’s father, Robin Padilla, confirmed the separation between his daughter and Abrenica last July. He also said the split was caused by a third party.
Meanwhile, Raval was previously in a relationship with former “Pinoy Big Brother” housemate Axel Torres. She announced their breakup last August.
Padilla recently told fans she did not see any issue if Abrenica decided to go out with other women. According to the actress, she and Abrenica have “mutually agreed” that they can date other people. Dana Cruz /ra
