Dingdong Dantes gets Marian Rivera's full support on his upcoming project


Last April 15, the cameras rolled for the first time as scenes were shot for the upcoming GMA Telebabad series, Ang Dalawang Mrs. Real. Kapuso Primetime King Dingdong Dantes shot his first scenes with Diamond Star, Maricel Soriano. How did he feel and what did his girlfriend, Kapuso Primetime Queen Marian Rivera have to say?

In the series, the Kapuso Primetime King and Diamond Star play husband and wife whose relationship will be shaken by an unforeseen obstacle.

Dingdong admitted that he got starstruck around Ms. Maricel Soriano. In an interview with Aubrey Carampel of 24 Oras, he said, “Sobrang excited and at the same time, sobrang kinakabahan. Nagpapasalamat ako na siyempre, very supportive sila sa akin, through our director, Direk Andoy Ranay.”

Direk Andoy acknowledged the chemistry between Dingdong and Maricel. He gushed, “Kasi first time nilang magkakatrabaho tapos mag-asawa pa sila. Magwowork ba? It works!”

Dingdong’s girlfriend, Carmela star Marian Rivera also extended her full support. She mentioned that Dingdong has been telling her nothing but good things about his upcoming project.

Marian shared, “Sabi ko nga [kay Dingdong], si inay (Maricel Soriano) kasi ang isa sa mga pinaka hinahangaan kong artista. Sabi ko, napakasuwerte niya at makakatrabaho talaga niya.”

Though both are busy taping for their respective teleseryes, Dingdong and Marian found time to spend Holy Week together in Japan.
