In a recent interview, actress Bea Alonzo shared that although she is 37, she is not rushing into marriage.
“Tying the knot is not always the endgame,” she explained. “People have different paths to follow, different destinies and fates. Of course, it would be nice. But that’s not the end goal. If it happens, I would be happy. But if not, it doesn’t mean I would feel like a failure because, on my own, I’m happy.”
Despite her stance on marriage, the actress is open to the possibility of a future romance.
“It happens, then so be it. But to be honest, right now, I enjoy being single. I meet a lot of new people, but I’m really enjoying my own company,” she said.
Bea also clarified a picture she recently shared on social media, in which she was with a guy. Many speculated that he was her new interest.
“Oh, that? He’s a good friend of mine. But we’re not dating.”
Speaking of dating, the award-winning star admitted that she goes out but there is no exclusivity.
“There are guys who send feelers. Of course, I’m single. But for the record, I’m not dating anybody exclusively.”
Interestingly, now that she has purchased an apartment in Madrid, which gives her permanent resident status in Spain, is she open to being courted by a Spanish guy?
“I’ve met male Spanish friends, and they’re extremely good-looking. But I’m not dating any of them.”
Is physical appearance an important factor for her to get attracted to a guy?
“Sometimes, it’s not always the case. It’s not just about the guy being handsome. It’s about the connection. Obviously, I haven’t met anyone yet with that strong connection. So, I’m not taking these things lightly. Of course, in all your previous relationships, you learn.”
This coming 2025, Bea wishes to value herself more.
“That’s right! My New Year’s resolution is to be kinder to myself. I love working, that’s for sure. I know that work is my top priority. But although I love my job and I’m scheduled to do a lot of projects next year, I would also like to prioritize my personal side. Because right now, I’m rediscovering myself without a partner.
“I don’t feel pressure being alone. For one, I discover so many things about myself. Like when I had my last vacation in Spain. I enjoyed the experience of driving alone there or just being alone in the house. It’s simply a nice feeling to still discover new things about yourself at this point in my life,” she ended.

Senator Bong Revilla is happy to have worked again with Jillian Ward in the third season of his hit action-comedy series on GMA, Walang Matigas na Pulis sa Matinik na Misis.
“Yes, of course! I’ve worked with Jillian in some of my biggest projects, like the movies Si Agimat at Si Enteng Kabisote in 2010, Si Agimat, Si Enteng Kabisote at Si Ako, and in my top-rating infotainment program Kap’s Amazing Stories from 2012-2014. It’s a joy to reconnect with her again,” he stated.
But based on the trailer, many assume that Jillian won’t be seen throughout the program.
“Just watch out! For sure, viewers will clamor for a followup. That’s why I don’t want to reveal when her character will enter or exit. But for sure, Jillian’s character will have a long involvement in the story. Viewers will surely like the plot.”
The actor-politician also hinted that he and Jillian may work again on another project, aside from Walang Matigas na Pulis sa Matinik na Misis.
“Yes! There’s a plan for the two of us to star in a film. Hope avid movie buffs will support it,” Bong said.
