Star of ABS-CBN's upcoming television series "Betty La Fea," actress Bea Alonzo reacted to reports that she is the newfound love of actor Jake Cuenca. In an interview, Alonzo said that she just wants to stay away from the issue since it is not really a big deal. She appealed to members of the entertainment media not to blow up these reports.

She also said that she does not want to make things complicated to avoid having another problem with actress Roxanne Guinoo. Guinoo is Cuenca's former girlfriend who reportedly had a rift with Alonzo years ago after a heated argument inside a dressing room.

John Lloyd on Jake

In a previous interview with Alonzo's long-time on screen partner actor John Lloyd Cruz, the actor said he has nothing against actor Jake Cuenca, if reports are indeed true that he is Alonzo's new love. Cruz was the love team partner of the actress for several years, before the onscreen tandem split up to venture into other roles and projects.

In an interview with abs-cbnNEWS.com, Cruz said that Cuenca and Alonzo are a perfect match.
"Let's say bagay sila. Ayaw kong ibuking si Bea pero dati ko ng naririnig na--halimbawa noong sa teleserye ng "Maging Sino Ka Man", siyempre nasa set kami, minsan may TV makikita niya si Palos--sasabihin niya ang gwapo talaga ni Jake. 'Yun pala 'yon ang pupuntahan noon," Cruz said.

He also said that his approval or disapproval on the matter is irrelevant. "Sino naman ako... kung doon siya masaya, huwag lang siya ma-agrabyado doon ako. Alam mo ang usapan diyan ay yung happiness ng tao wala kang karapatan na kumontra, kumbaga basta kung masaya siya I will be more than happy for her," he said.

Alonzo was first seen as a young nerd who transformed into a 20-year old lawyer in ABS-CBN's "Kay Tagal Kang Hinintay." At the age of 15, she was nominated for Best Actress by the PMPC Awards. This made her the youngest nominee for the category.

Presently, she is busy working for ABS-CBN's Pinoy version of "Betty La Fea" with actor-comedy Vhong Navarro as her best friend and confidante.
