Fans were quick to notice that actor Joshua Garcia hit the “like” button on the wedding photo of Loisa Andalio and Ronnie Alonte, posted by the couple’s talent management.
The simple gesture immediately sparked nostalgia among longtime supporters of the former ‘LoiShua’ tandem.
Many netizens expressed delight at Joshua’s display of support, calling it an example of a healthy and respectful closure between exes in showbiz. Some even revisited old clips and memories from Joshua and Loisa’s time together.
Joshua and Loisa both joined ‘Pinoy Big Brother: All In’ in 2014, where Joshua finished as 3rd runner-up and Loisa as 1st runner-up. Inside the Bahay ni Kuya, the two became a popular love team, which continued even after they exited the reality show.
Fans commented that they hope other former celebrity couples can show the same maturity, noting that there appeared to be “no bitterness, only respect” between Joshua and Loisa.
Others speculated that Joshua’s like is also a reflection of his current happiness with his non-showbiz girlfriend Emilienne Vigier, with whom he has been in a steady relationship for over two years. Some wondered whether Joshua himself is now ready for marriage.
Meanwhile, past issues involving Joshua and his former love-team partner surfaced online again. In a 2017 interview during their ‘The Good Son’ promotion, Joshua addressed claims of awkwardness between him and Loisa following the emergence of the ‘JoshLia’ team-up with Julia Barretto.
“Wala naman, wala naman kaming ilangan,” he said at the time, clarifying that he and Loisa remained on good terms.
“Siguro ‘yung mga tao lang nagbigay ng mga awkward-awkward ganyan, pero kami, okay naman kaming lahat.”
He added that people should not put meaning into out-of-context videos circulating online, stressing that there was no issue between them.
