What can Barbie Forteza say after David Licuaco said that he cares about her?

In Nelson Canlas' report on "24 Oras," Monday, the Kapuso Primetime Princess has a cute reaction to David's remark about her.

"He cares about me? Ay wow naman! I care about him also! Siyempre," Barbie said.

"I care about him a lot!" she added.

Previously, the Pambansang Ginoo said that he and Barbie are really close with each other.

"We have to think na, of course, Barbie just got off from a relationship and we should respect that. Kailangan niyang mag-heal," David said.

When asked if he has feelings for her, David said, "I care for her a lot. I just really care about her a lot."

Barbie and David's tandem rose to popularity when they starred as Klay and Fidel in "Maria Clara at Ibarra." They recently starred in "Pulang Araw" and the film "That Kind of Love" last year.

The pair is set to have another project this 2025.

Meanwhile, David will star in the upcoming movie "Samahan ng mga Makasalanan," with Sanya Lopez, Liezel Lopez, Betong Sumaya, Buboy Villar, Jay Ortega, Chariz Solomon, Joel Torre, Euwenn Mikaell, and more. —Jade Veronique Yap/MGP, GMA Integrated News
