IT IS finally confirmed! Kapuso stars Ashley Ortega and Mavy Legaspi are dating!
The “Pulang Araw” actress revealed her relationship status with Legaspi during her appearance in “Fast Talk With Boy Abunda” on Monday, February 10.
Her dating confirmation came as Ortega talked about how much details about her personal life she would share on social media.
Television host Boy Abunda then asked Ortega about the real score between her and Legaspi, to which she answered, “I think it’s obvious naman… Yes.”
Ortega shared that she met Legaspi a few years ago, but they only started hanging out with each other in 2024. This was after Legaspi and actress Kyline Alcantara parted ways, she said.
“There was this one night kasama ‘yung mga friends namin, so doon ko siya nakilala, and then nagtuloy-tuloy na. And then he asked me out if we can have lunch or dinner together just to get to know more each other,” Ortega narrated.
The actress then confirmed that Legaspi courted her later on.
“Mavy’s really thoughtful and he’s also generous. ‘Di naman kasi ako ma-grandeng tao na kailangan ng mga surprises and flowers, whatsoever. Ano lang talaga, mas more on conversational kasi [ako],” she shared.
Ortega said she initially thought Legaspi would not match her maturity level because he is three years younger than her. But as she got to know the actor, she realized that Legaspi was more mature than him in their relationship.
“In our relationship, parang ako nga ‘yung pabebe girl. He takes care of me. ’Yun ‘yung napatunayan niya while we were going out,” she told the host, describing Legaspi as a “well-mannered guy.”
Abunda asked how long they have officially been together, but Ortega chose not to answer.

Eagle-eyed netizens noticed in a group photo that Ortega had her arms wrapped around Legaspi’s shoulders. At the end of the carousel was a solo picture of Ortega, which piqued the netizens’ curiosity.
