The speculations increased when Mika Reyes’ fan page posted photos of Mika with the caption, “With or without Jerome Ponce, she is still THE Mika Reyes whom people love and support for her swag and charm. Cheaters are losers, remember that.”
Before Mika and Jerome had a relationship, it was with Kapamilya actress Elisse Joson whom Jerome had third party issues with and their relationship ended in 2016.
Ponce and Reyes first met in 2017 on ASAP. At that time, Mika had a guest appearance on the show.
Jerome even described his relationship with Mika as very normal, sweet, loving, caring, despite coming from different backgrounds and working in different fields.
“Actually, pagdating sa relationship naman, wala naman ‘yang ano, e, wala siyang dapat na kailangang ano. Minsan, kailangan niyo lang mag-jive diyan, kailangan mo din lang mag-adjust.”
“Kailangan mo lang din minsan mag-connect kahit parehas pa kayong artista, kahit hindi kayo artista, magkaibang propesyon kayo. Kung anuman, hindi kayo magkaedad, kung anuman, mas bata, mas matanda, wala, as long as jive kayo, yun yun.”
During their relationship, the two were very low-key. They weren’t showy about their online relationship, but people knew they were together.
As of now, both camps haven’t released any statement or confirmed any allegations about their relationship.
