“Isang pangarap. Pangarap na nagsimula sa pagpapanumbalik ng iyong tunay na ngiti na naguugat sa kaluluwa, isip, puso at mga mata. Ito ang layunin ko simula noong unang araw na tayo’y nagsimula,” he wrote.
(A dream. A dream that started with the hope of bringing back your true smile that radiates from your soul, mind, heart, and eyes. This was my goal since the day we got together.)

While it is unknown when Juan and Alejandrino started dating, the couple went public with their relationship in January 2025. The actress’ name was also briefly mentioned in the caption of the “GomBurZa” star’s Instagram post in October 2024, although it was unknown if they were already a couple then.
Having appeared on TV, films, and theater, Juan rose to prominence after winning Best Actor at the 2023 Metro Manila Film Festival for his portrayal of Padre Jose Burgos in the film “GomBurZa.” He also appeared in “Till I Met You,” “Die Beautiful,” “The Panti Sisters,” “Big Night!”, and the 2022 staging of “Mula Sa Buwan.”
Alejandrino, on the other hand, is best known for starring in “Lavender Fields,” “Ten Little Mistresses,” and “Dormitoryo: Mga walang katapusang kwarto.”
