| Actor John Lloyd Cruz admits actress Angelica Panganiban is his girlfriend. |
In an interview with “The Buzz” on Sunday, Cruz said being with Panganiban is “beyond happiness.”
“It is something na hindi namin ine-expect. Parang bigla na lang saan galing ito, saan galing iyon? Suddenly it’s magic. But seriously, iyon talaga ang nangyari,” he said.
Cruz said he has known Panganiban for the longest time until that day came when he saw the actress in a different light.
According to Cruz, he finally admitted that they are in a relationship since many people have been asking them.
“Wala naman kaming tinatago, wala naman kaming dapat pagtaguan or paglihiman. Hindi naman kami para umiwas sa tanong. Kung may nagtanong, opo kami po,” he explained.
Cruz, however, said he and Panganiban still refuse to go into details about their relationship.
Before his interview ended, he greeted Panganiban on air saying “Hi love!”
Rumors that something romantic is blossoming between Cruz and Panganiban started after the two returned to the Philippines from Vietnam in April to shoot their scenes for the upcoming Star Magic movie "24/7 in Love."
But it was only last August 12 when Panganiban posted a collage photo on Instagram where she went public for the first time in hinting that there is something happening between her and Cruz.
Panganiban and Cruz's first public appearance together was at the Star Magic Ball last September 1, where they were even seen leaving the event hand in hand.
