JC de Veral and Rhian Ramos had a “past”

He said that they are not unfamiliar with each other when it comes to acting in one frame because they worked together in 2008 when they did the series La Lola. JC de Vera shared this series boosted Rhian Ramos’s career as this served as her big acting break.
For their new movie, JC said that there is no feeling of “ilangan”. “Walang feeling na, alam mo yun? Kasi matagal kaming hindi nagka-work, akala ko magkakapaan kami, pero hindi. We’re still the same,” he said.
They were able to finish the project with no awkwardness and they felt comfortable with each other during the heavy scenes. Because of this, there was no need for multiple takes.
JC also did not deny that when he and Rhian were doing the La Lola series, they dated. “Normal naman kasi yata na kapag meron kang naka-partner before, nali-link talaga kayo mutually na parang… meron naman. Siguro bonding, more on bonding,” the actor said.
He added that back then, almost all onscreen partners were rumored to have romantic relationships. However, he stressed that now, they are mature. Back then, they were just teenagers.
JC de Vera also said that he and Rhian Ramos are both happy now with their respective relationships. The actor is happily married while the actress is in a relationship with politician Sam Verzosa.
