Asia’s Superstar Kathryn Bernardo and Asia’s Multimedia Star Alden Richards continue bringing “kilig” to KathDen fans but a source revealed that this is just their onscreen partnership.

The KathDen tandem started in the movie Hello, Love, Goodbye in 2019. This became a big hit and for a certain period of time became the top grossing film.

After that movie, fans have been clamoring about the sequel and this did not happen until 2024.

It was announced early this year that when it was announced that HLG’s sequel is happening, the Hello, Love, Again.

Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards were seen together more often this year. The actor joined the actress’s family gatherings and rumor has it that he started courting her. Previously, the source of talent manager-vlogger Ogie Diaz revealed that Kathryn’s family is “boto” to Alden as her suitor.

When Alden was asked about the real score between him and Kathryn, he gave an indirect answer and just said that “what you see is what you get.”

With their togetherness during the shoot in Canada, KathDen fans could not help but anticipate that there would be something romantic between them in real life. However, Pang-Masa entertainment writer Ed De Leon shared in his recent article that the KathDen “ligawan” is just for social media, according to his source.

De Leon said that their source told them not to easily believe about “ligawang KathDen.” Although Kathryn and Alden’s onscreen tandem are okay, the source reiterated that there was no courting that happened between them.

“Hindi raw totoo na sinamantala ni Alden Richards ang pakikipag-split ni Kathryn Bernardo kay Daniel Padilla,” De Leon said in his article.

The writer added that it just so happened that when Kathryn and Daniel separated, the “sure fire formula” of Kathryn’s love team was gone and it would be a gamble if they would choose another onscreen partner for the actress.

“Siyempre ang kukunin nila ay iyong subok nang kakagatin ng tao basta nakatambal ni Kathryn at si Alden na nga iyon,” the columnist said.
