Ashley Ortega laughs off rumors linking her to Xian Lim: 'We're just good friends'


Ashley Ortega has shut down rumors linking her to her "Hearts on Ice" co-star, Xian Lim.

On "Updated With Nelson Canlas," the Kapuso actress expressed her surprise that such a rumor is getting traction.

"Natatawa na lang kami ni Xian, na parang saan ba to nanggagaling," she said.

"Actually nagugulat nalang talaga ako na parang, ha saan nila nakukuha to?" she added.

She said that she and Xian are just good friends, and she respects the fact that he is in a relationship with actress Kim Chiu.

"I'm not that kind of person naman na mang-aagawa, or diba mga accusations sa akin ng mga tao na malandi daw ako, na lihim daw kaming nagkikita and everything," she said.

Ashley clarified that she and Xian are training in figure skating together for their show "Hearts on Ice."

"Every time we would train together for our scenes together, syempre public kasi 'yung rink diba, so a lot of people would see us," she said. "E may mga dance steps kami na may mga holding hands, diba kasi love team kami sa show. So siguro nalalagyan nila ng malisya 'yun, pero hindi naman kasi namin kayang i-afford na ipasara yung buong skating rink na para lang kami ang mag skate."

"But me and Xian we're just good friends, as in good friends," she added.

“Hearts on Ice” airs on GMA Telebabad after "Mga Lihim ni Urduja." It's also available on GTV, Pinoy Hits, and gmanetwork.com/full. —JCB, GMA Integrated News
