Miguel Tanfelix and Ysabel Ortega


Miguel Tanfelix on Ysabel Ortega: 'Pinalaki siya nang maayos ng mga magulang niya, wholesome siya. Alam mo 'yung isang taong hindi mo kayang bastusin, 'yun 'yung dating sa 'kin ni Ysabel.'

It seemed Miguel Tanfelix and Ysabel Ortega went on a date recently and, this time, the pair went public with their hangout. Previously, they were spotted together in the same place on a couple of occasions without revealing that they were together.

In fact, Miguel posted a mirror selfie of him where Ysabel can be seen when they dined in a restaurant after their guesting in Unang Hirit last Tuesday, August 16.

In the caption, the actor called her "an angel."

During the virtual media conference of their new show What We Could Be on Thursday, August 18, Miguel clarified that it is not his term of endearment for Ysabel but explained the reason why he gave her onscreen partner such remark.

He shared, "Tinawag ko siyang angel kasi isa mga traits na gusto ko kay Ysabel, na pinakagusto ko is 'yung pagiging wholesome niya.

"So 'pag wholesome, maiisip mo isang anghel, hindi makabasag pinggan, 'di ba, perfect example ng isang dalagang Pilipina."

Miguel also noted during the mediacon that Ysabel has grown into a fine lady that is worthy of respect.

"Pinalaki siya nang maayos ng mga magulang niya, wholesome siya. Alam mo 'yung isang taong hindi mo kayang bastusin, 'yun 'yung dating sa 'kin ni Ysabel, isa sa mga pinakagusto ko sa kanya."

Although they've been an item for quite some time, they clarified that they are not in a hurry to put a label on their relationship because they are focused on enjoying each other's company for now.
