Anderson and Julia’s relationship was confirmed to the public in March 2021. The pair had been hounded by breakup rumors, which Julia considered a “compliment.”
“Parang gan’un ang balita every month for how many years na talaga. Hindi ko rin talaga alam kung saan nanggagaling,” she said then. “But I think I will just take it as a compliment.”
(There have been [breakup rumors involving us] every month for how many years now. I still really don’t know where it comes from.)
“I guess we’re able to create that private bubble of ours na hindi na nila alam kung ano ang masyadong nangyayari sa partnership namin,” she further noted.
(I guess we’re able to create that private bubble of ours so that no one knows what’s happening in our partnership.)
