Bea Alonzo captured the attention of the netizens after she posted a vlog of her trip to Sapporo, Japan, with her fiance, Dominic Roque.
In the vlog, Bea was seen having fun times with Dominic and enjoying the cold weather of Sapporo.
They also visited several restaurants and the market to taste one of the most expensive seafood available in the said place, King Crab.
Bea and Dominic also displayed a love lock at Mount Moiwa.
The said video was posted amid the separation rumors between Bea and Dominic.
It can be recalled that Bea fueled the speculations when she denied that they were already planning her wedding, saying that Dominic should be the one planning it.
Talent manager Ogie Diaz, known for his accurate showbiz forecast, said that Bea and Dominic already ended their relationship.
However, Ogie said that Dominic was doing every effort to reconcile with Bea.
Bea Alonzo recently went viral on social media amid rumors of separation between her and her fiance, Dominic Roque.
In an interview, Bea contradicted Dominic’s statement that they were already preparing for a wedding.
According to Bea, they were too busy to plan the wedding.
Separation rumors also sparked when talent manager Ogie Diaz disclosed that Bea and Dominic’s relationship was in limbo.
Amid the discussion, several netizens mentioned that Bea was also ‘busy’ several weeks before announcing her separation from her ex-boyfriend, Gerald Anderson, whom she hasn’t forgiven until today.
They also noticed Bea not wearing her engagement ring at the event she attended recently.
“Ganito sya sumagot kay Gerald dati. Busy sya eh. Contradicting din mga sagot nya, sa latest vlog may save the date na tapos sasabihin mo wala pa, walang ideal wedding, wala pa or wala na? These two are so bad in hiding, napaka transparent kasi nila sa Social media. Not wearing an engagement ring is a sign something is wrong,” netizen Maj remarked.
It can be recalled that Bea became one of the top topics of 2021 after she revealed how Gerald left her without even talking to her.
“Apart from, of course, the whole infidelity thing and the whole ghosting thing, I think I’m mad at him more because he gaslighted me. I think it was more of that and until now, he’s not holding himself accountable. That’s what really gets me. He has not changed. Not a bit. He was only protecting himself. He’s selfish,” Bea said while describing Gerald.
“To be honest, when he ghosted me, para akong na-scam. As in like, when I posted what I posted,” she added.
Until now, Bea still makes reference to what Gerald did to her, giving netizens the impression that she is still not completely moved on from what happened to her.
Aida Tautuaa, wife of San Miguel Beer player Mo Tautuaa, insisted that they’re not trying to start a verbal spat with Magnolia player Calvin Abueva.
On February 4, after the one-sided game between San Miguel Beer and Magnolia, Calvin was seen trying to confront Mo and Aida, claiming that the couple was disrespectful in front of him and his child.
Even Calvin’s partner, Salome Alejandra, involved herself in the commotion and tried to confront Aida and Mo.
According to Aida, Calvin was the one who made a bad gesture when they met after the game.
“This guy is crazy! Calvin just came after me while I was walking to the bathroom,” she said.
However, she clarified that Calvin didn’t touch her but smirked at her.
“I had to walk past him to go to the restroom. He smirked at me, nodded his head up & down & said, “yeaa” laughing. I said “w*f is wrong with you” & kept walking. He walked after me and literally got in my face,” she wrote.
However, Calvin denied the accusations, saying he never smiled at Aida.
“Dumaan siya dito, hinihintay ako anak ko, and then sabi niya ‘what the f*** are you smiling. Sino siya para ii-smile ko siya,” he said.
“Bakit niya ako ginanun? Hinihintay ko asawa ko tapos gaganun niya ako,” he added.
San Miguel defeated Magnolia during the second finals game, 109-85, but Calvin vowed to do his best in game three to give the first win of his team.
Several netizens discussed the meeting between actress Sunshine Cruz and Atong Ang during an event organized by the businessman.

According to some reports, Sunshine was one of the celebrity guests of Atong’s new venture, ‘Apple sa Pula o Apple sa Puti.’
Atong’s new business differed from his former money tree, as the players only needed to guess between two colors to win prizes.
Aside from Sunshine, Atong was also linked to his business partner, Gretchen Barretto. However, the two repeatedly denied that they were in a romantic relationship.
A video taken by one of the agents of Atong’s new game also recorded a performance by Sunshine during one of the events organized by the businessman.
As of writing, Sunshine and Atong have yet to give their direct reaction to the rumors.
Veteran columnist Cristy Fermin urged Dennis Padilla to stop seeking the attention of his children, including Julia Barretto.
In her program, Cristy said that while she understood why Dennis was making all his effort to reach his children, she believed it would be better for the actor to rest for a while.
“Nauunawaan ko ang emosyon, nararamdaman ni Dennis Padilla. Pero kung ako ay isang ama, na sa kabila ng aking paulit-ulit na pananawagan, kulang na lang talaga e mag-video ako ng isang panawagan sa aking mga anak nang dire-diretso para ako’y pansinin, at hindi naman siya pinapansin, di ba kung minsan meron nang nagpipigil sa atin na, ‘Nagawa ko na ang para sa akin’,” she said.
“Kung sakali nga na ganyang paulit-ulit na hindi siya pinapansin, manahimik na muna siguro si Dennis Padilla,” she added.
Meanwhile, she also believed that Julia’s decision to ignore her father was justified.
“Ano pa bang maaasahan natin kay Julia? E di para hindi rin siya ma-stress, hindi na lang muna siya sumasagot. Kahit sino sa kanilang mag-iina, di ba?” she stated.
It can be recalled that Dennis mentioned Julia again in his post.

The Movie and Television Review Classification Board (MTRCB) surprised the fans of a show on TV5 after they suspended it for its mature content.
In a statement released on January 30, 2024, the government agency said the show didn’t follow the MTRCB’s rules, specifically, section 3 of Presidential Decree No. 1986 and Section 2, Article 4 and Section 8, Article 5 of its Implementing Rules and Regulations.
According to the agency, TV5’s show, ‘Private Convos with Doc Rica’ discussed several mature topics and also used inappropriate words that should not be publicly consumed.
MTRCB clarified that they only answered the complaint filed by several parents against the show.
They added that the program was being shown during the Child-Viewing hours.
“Mariin nating kinokondena ang anumang malinaw na paglabag sa batas. Kaakibat ng malayang pag brodcast ng reponsibilidad. Hinihiling namin sa mga broadkaster at content creators na maging maingat at responsable sa kanilang mga proseso ng paglikha, na kumiklala sa implunwesya ng on-screen content,” MTRCB chair Lala Sotto said.
Meanwhile, Dr. Rica Cruz expressed her surprise at MTRCB’s decision.
Despite not being aired on television, Private Convos with Doc Rica was still streaming on several media platforms.
In 2022, she opened up about her decision not to talk to her father.
“I think it’s not difficult for us to forgive. It’s also just, there’s a lot of fear because I don’t know what’s gonna happen. But forgiveness, of course, that’s for my own peace of mind but I’m just not that ready. There’s just so much pain since I was young,” she said.
“I’m just really not ready. I don’t wanna force myself also,” she added.
In the same year, Dennis criticized Julia and even reminded her about the things he gave to her.
“Nung malakas pa ako kumita at maliit pa kyo… Kanino ba naubos lahat? Sa inyo… Kasi gusto ko maginhawa ang buhay nyo. Kaya Karen davila interview mo ko para klaro ang lahat,” he said.
Bea Alonzo contradicted the statement made by her own fiance, Dominic Roque, who said that they were already planning for their upcoming wedding.
In an interview with Very Wang, Bea denied that they were already planned for the wedding venue and listed their guests already.
Last month, Dominic said they planned to wed outside the country and insisted that his former friend, Daniel Padilla, was not invited.
However, Bea’s statement opposed Dominic’s answer during the said interview.
She was also unsure if they would invite KathNiel to the wedding.
“Wala pang plano… Dapat lalake ang mag plano,” she said.
Bea even said they have no plans for the upcoming Valentine’s.
According to her, they’re very busy on her projects.
Several netizens expressed disappointment to Bea’s statement.
“I hate you Bea for outright disrespect for your fiance Dom. You made him look a liar because of your denial re wedding preps. Who is really a liar? Siguro it’s better for you to stay single and keep on acquiring money and assets. Besides baka nga hindi ka na rin magka baby at your age,” netizen Mina said.
“Ganito sya sumagot kay Gerald dati. Busy sya eh. Contradicting din mga sagot nya, sa latest vlog may save the date na tapos sasabihin mo wala pa, walang ideal wedding, wala pa or wala na? These two are so bad in hiding, napaka transparent kasi nila sa Social media. Not wearing an engagement ring is a sign something is wrong,” netizen Maj remarked.
It can be recalled that some netizens noticed that Bea was not wearing the engagement ring she received from Dominic.
