Zanjoe Marudo, for the first time, posted photos of actress Ria Atayde on his social media page taken during their vacation in Japan.

The series of snaps includes photos of him with Atayde, as well as their other friends Joshua Garcia, Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla.

Several netizens could not help but comment on Marudo’s post, with some saying they are now “Instagram official.”

The latest photos of Marudo and Atayde together came after her mother, veteran actress Sylvia Sanchez, candidly mentioned that the two are “dating.”
