Meanwhile, Mark Alcala is known by showbiz fans as the ex-boyfriend of Kapuso actress Ashley Ortega. The former Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition housemate confirmed their breakup in March 2023. They had been together for quite a while. Then, the Mayor had a romantic connection with athlete Mika Reyes.
Allegedly, this was the reason why Kathryn Bernardo’s friendship with Trina Guytingco is on the rocks. The latter is also a close friend of Mika.
