Although Aljur Abrenica already admitted that his relationship with screen partner Kris Bernal has reached the ‘m.u..’ (mutual understanding) stage, rumors linking him to Rich Asuncion continue to spread.

At the recent Cosmopolitan Bachelor’s Bash held at the NBC Tent, Kris showed Aljur her support by watching him there with her friends. In the interview that followed backstage, Kris openly admired Aljur for having the guts to do the catwalk bare naked. As a bonus to the actor, Kris planted him a kiss on the cheek.

Yet not far from where Kris sat was Aljur's rumored girlfriend Rich Asuncion.

Aljur and Rich, although both Kapuso stars, reportedly did not even throw glances at each other. According to our sources, Rich, who was with Maxene Magalona, specifically went to the show to cheer for Aljur.

A few months back, Rich was reported to have flown all the way to Bohol just to see Aljur. She was allegedly in disguise when she arrived at the airport so as not to cause any commotion. She denied the rumor in an interview.

Meanwhile, JC Tiuseco is said to be on the market again after romance with his lawyer-girlfriend ended.

The two, it is said, were together for six years with the romance starting even when JC was not yet in show business, let alone a “Survivor” grand winner.

Nowadays, talks are ripe that JC is courting Maxene Magalona who also had broken up with her non-showbiz boyfriend.

When interviewed during the Cosmopolitan Bash event, Maxene said she's not rushing into love again, and that she was just there to give JC moral support.

JC, on the other hand, quipped, "tingnan natin" when asked how far his friendship with Maxene will go.

As for Dennis Trillo, young actress Pauleen Luna said he called her up after he figured in an accident in Boracay recently.

"When I talked to Dennis, he was crying. Kasi ako, naawa ako kasi very traumatic experience," Pauleen told a “Startalk” reporter last Sept. 12.

In the same interview, Pauleen said that “too busy schedules” have prevented her and Dennis from nourishing their new-found closeness..

"We were dating pero pagkatapos ng ‘Adik Sa 'Yo,’ wala na kaming chance magkita," she said.

However, Pauleen added that it doesn’t mean doors are forever closed to that chapter in their lives.

“Like what I said, hindi siya naudlot, kasi puwede namang ibalik [ang closeness namin ni Dennis] any time, sa tamang oras," said she.

Even if Dennis is now being linked to young actresses Jennica Garcia and Maxine Eigenmann?
