Are kim and xian already a couple?

“Masaya naman kami kung ano kami. And bahala na kung kelan maging kami o kung anuman, tignan na lang natin.”

This is what Kim Chiu said when asked about the status of her relationship with on screen partner Xian Lim.

Both have admitted that they consider each other special, but are not yet officially together.

“Parang pinapangunahan pa kami ng ibang mga tao. Pero siyempre, wala na rin kaming magagawa kung iyon ang gusto nilang isipin. Pero wala, parang hayaan na lang natin. Basta sa aming dalawa, alam namin kung ano yung nangyayari at kung ano yung ginagawa namin,” Kim said at the press conference of her new Kapamilya TV drama “Ina, Kapatid, Anak” on Monday, September 24.

Kim adds that she’s ready to fall in love again, since it’s been two years since she had a romantic relationship.

“Puwede na, kasi two years na. Konting effort pa,” Kim said in the same interview with Xian.

Xian has expressed admiration for Kim, and the latter, in turn, admits she feels special to him.

“Kasi tinatrato niyang espesyal yung buong pamilya ko. Noong magkaroon siya ng mall show sa Cebu, sabi niya gusto niyang dalawin yung lola ko doon.

“Sabi ko, 'Anong gagawin mo sa lola ko?’ Parang ganoon. Minsan sasabihin niya, 'Puwedeng dumalaw sa bahay ninyo?' Anong gagawin mo?’ Makikikain lang.’ Ganoon siya. Nakakatuwa naman. Pero sana hindi siya magsawa," she said.

Kim also revealed that she appreciates how Xian gave her a pink Prada bag even though there was no special occasion at all. “Kapag umaalis siya ng bansa, may pasalubong siya sa akin,” Kim revealed.

Different Kim

Kim is excited for “Ina, Kapatid, Anak,”where she stars with Xian, Maja Salvador, Enchong Dee, Janice de Belen, Cherry Pie Picache and Eddie Gutierrez.

“Ngayon lang ako nagkaroon ng role na kailangan kong panindigan yung sarili ko, mabuhay para sa pamilya ko. Parang doon ka humuhugot sa problema pag pini-play mo yung character. Siyempre makaka-relate dito yung iba't ibang tao. Kasi lahat naman ng tao may pangarap at ang pangarap nila, yung yumaman,” she explains.

Kim added that people will see something different from her, now that she’s playing poor but ambitious Celine.

“Sobrang iba siya sa kung ano ako as Kim Chiu. Pero sa tulong ng direktor namin, tinutulungan nila ako na maging loud, yung maging kanto girl.”
