Legal Wives tells the story of a unique Muslim family where a man married three different women for various reasons.
Shayne plays Jamilah, a young woman from a wealthy Maranaw clan. Abdul plays the impoverished young man who falls in love with her.
In an online interview with select members of the media including GMANetwork.com, the two revealed that they were already being paired up during their days as contestants in StarStruck.
"Noong 'StarStruck' po kasi we just kind of clicked. Talagang kami na po talaga 'yung pinagpe-pair during 'StarStruck.' As the time went by, wala po kaming ginawang any workshops or what. Naging close na talaga po kami tapos nag-click lang po talaga 'yung ugali namin sa isa't isa. Ang dami naming napagkukuwentuhan," Shayne recalled.
Shayne and Abdul also revealed their first impressions of each other.
"I'm naturally attracted to people with substance. Ayun 'yung una kong nakita with Shayne. She's smart. She just likes to act dumb. 'Yun 'yung lagi kong inaasar sa kanya," Abdul shared.
He adds that he is glad to have gotten to know Shayne better through their conversations.
"Noong una pa lang talaga I just found her cute. There was this sort of attraction na gusto ko siyang kausapin pero may konting hiya factor. Noong nakausap na kami, I found out na oh wow this girl is pretty samrt. Nakakasabay siya sa conversation ko. Marami rin siyang nsasabi," he said.
Shayne then admitted that she was worried about Abdul being "masungit."
"Noong una kong kita sa kanya, feeling ko mysterious siya, mysterious type. During 'StarStruck,' ang dami niya pong kinukuwento--'yung tungkol sa mga alien stuff, science stuff. Sabi ko, weird. Feeling ko din masungit siya noon kasi parang hindi siya masyadong namamansin sa iba tapos nage-English siya palagi. Sabi ko, hala hindi ko ito makaka-click," she explained.
"Noong nag-usap na po kami, doon ko napansin na or doon ko nasabi na kaya niya pala sumabay sa trip ko. Ang dami pala naming same po na gusto," Shayne added.
Shayne and Abdul are among the young Kapuso love teams to watch in GMA Network this 2021.
