Andalio, who was Garcia's fellow "Pinoy Big Brother" housemate in 2014, has maintained in recent interviews that while they remain on good terms, they no longer have a close relationship. This, despite them being billed as a tandem -- "Loishua" -- for a time.

Interestingly, Andalio is now paired onscreen and is rumored to be in a relationship with Ronnie Alonte, who was Barretto's two-time leading man in the primetime series "A Love to Last" and the romance-drama film "Vince and Kath and James," also featuring Garcia.
