Diego Loyzaga is now admitting to dating Franki Russell

8 Jun – After previously denying rumours of romance with Franki Russell, Diego Loyzaga has suddenly changed his tune, revealing that the two are actually dating now.

The actor shared the recent development between him and Franki in an interview with Monster RX93.1, saying that the first interview came when the two of them had only known each other for ten days, which was why he denied it at the time.

"Who am I to say that? I can't give a label that we are something or we are. It would have been shameless for me to say we are. I haven't even asked her. We've just been seeing each other [at the time]," he explained.

However, things have changed since then, and that the two of them are now dating.

He also admitted to be quite the "hypocrite", after previously saying that he wanted to focus on himself following the rumours that sparked after the "PBB" alumna shared a birthday greeting to him back in May.

"I guess these things, you don't expect it. It just really comes along. Ever since meeting up with her and hanging out with her, it hasn't stopped. We really did click," he said.

Prior to Franki, Diego was in a one-year relationship with Barbie Imperial, which reportedly ended late last year.
