Since May, Forteza and Blake have been hounded with dating rumors after multiple sightings of them together at fun run events, in which they would either walk closely together or hold hands.
However, the “Flower Girl” star denied that anything was going on between them last July, explaining that he only helped the Kapuso star navigate through the crowd. The “P77” star also clarified they are not together in the same month.
Forteza and Blake are set to work together in the upcoming Netflix film “Kontrabida Academy,” which also stars Eugene Domingo. Details on the film’s plot and premiere date are yet to be announced. /edv
