Highspeed continues to write about love stories in the time of pandemic.
Last time, this column dwelt on Kapuso lovers. Here, the focus is on Kapamilya lovebirds.
Too bad that ABS-CBN had been shutdown. But hopefully in time the Kapamilya channel will reopen. But that is beside the point. In the meantime, on with the Kapamilya lovebirds.
Let’s start with KathNiel – Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla. From day one, they are open about their relationship. The forced lockdown made them even much closer.
Religion didn’t come in the way. He is Catholic. She is Iglesia Ni Cristo.
More or less in the same boat are Liza Soberano and Enrique Gil – LizQuen.
Liza defied her father who, understandably, did not want his daughter to have a boyfriend that early. Too soon. Liza had her way, saying Enrique made her happy and complete.
KathNiel and LizQuen face uncertain future as Kapamilya stars.
What’s keeping Luis Manzano from proposing marriage to Jessy Mendiola? He’s rich, a successful businessman… not to mention in demand Kapamilya host. He’s of age, nearing 40.
Jessy is waiting. Luis’ mom, Ate Vi, is eager to have an “apo.” Your move, Mr. Manzano.
Other Kapamilya lovebirds: Kim Chiu and Xian Lim. Catriona Gray and Sam Milby. Angel Locsin and Neil Arce. Maymay Entrata and Edward Barber.
Bea Alonzo and…Dominic Roque? Coco Martin and…Julia Montes?
