It can be recalled that Julia was caught in a cheating controversy with Bea Alonzo and Gerald Anderson. The issue started when Julia was randomly seen with Gerald and cryptic posts from Bea’s social media account appeared which made accusations that Julia was the reason behind the Bea-Gerald breakup.
Prior to these, Julia and Gerald were already romantically linked during the shoot of their movie, “Between Maybes.”
However, Julia denied all the allegations.
Netizens even went as far as suggesting that the three should star in the series.
Bagay sa kanya. I hope next year ABS-CBN will do an adaptation of TWOAMC that will star Judy Ann Santos, Piolo Pascual and Julia Barretto.
