Huwag Kang Titingin lead actors Allen Ansay and Sofia Pablo have addressed and clarified the rumors surrounding the true status of their romance.

In an exclusive interview with GMA News Interviews, Allen clarified the nature of his connection with Sofia, stating that they are surprised by these rumors since the actress has “not yet said yes” to him.

According to the young actor, their friendship is solid, remains strong, and has not changed over the many years they have been together.

“Natatawa nga kami talaga kasi 'di pa naman ako sinasagot ni Sofia, may mga ganun na,” Allen said during the interview.

He continued, “And kumbaga, kami kasi sabi ko nga talaga, kahit before pa talaga, 'yung friendship namin hindi magbabago 'yun.”

Allen also highlighted the enduring bond he shares with Sofia, noting the stability of their relationship over time.

“Six years na po kaming magkakilala. Dito na rin po talaga kami sa point na kumbaga hindi mawawala kung anong relationship na meron kami, 'yung friendship namin together,” he said.

Recently, Sofia revealed in an interview on the program Fast Talk with Boy Abunda that she is currently “single but not available.”

Aside from the status of their relationship, Allen and Sofia also discussed their growing careers as they star in the upcoming big-screen film Huwag Kang Titingin.

Sofia shared that she feels hurt, especially by criticisms directed at her personal character, and admitted that she still has a lot to improve on, both personally and in her acting skills.

“Aminado naman ako na I really have to improve, even acting, pero kapag 'yung pagkatao ko, na-hu-hurt talaga ako. The people around me, they can really vouch hindi ako ganung tao,” Sofia said.

Addressing the public's perception, she also expressed her stance on dealing with critics and why she chooses to let her actions speak for themselves.

“Pero syempre, the people will believe what they really wanna believe. Wala ka po talaga magagawa, papatunayan mo lang talaga na hindi ka ganun kasi time will tell naman eh,” she said.

Reflecting on his humble beginnings and the unwavering support of his family, Allen also shared how his perseverance eventually paid off.

“Kahit mag-isa po ako sa Manila nun dito, mag-isa ako, wala akong kasama. Sabi nila, anak, bibigay namin sa'yo 'to kasi pangarap mo 'yan. And nung binigay po nila sa'kin, sobra-sobra pa po 'yung nakuha ko,” Allen shared.
