The unexpected demise of Lovi Poe’s character, Mokang, in Coco Martin’s series ‘FPJ’s Batang Quiapo’ left many fans and viewers saddened.
While the initial reunion of Mokang, played by Lovi, and Tanggol (Coco) alongside Bubbles (Ivana Alawi) brought joy to fans, the sudden turn of events, with Lovi’s character getting shot and Coco himself burying the Kapamilya Prime Actress, took everyone by surprise.
Some fans held on to the hope that it was all a dream sequence, and Lovi’s Mokang would return to the series. However, Lovi expressed gratitude for the support of those who followed her journey as Mokang in ‘FPJ’s Batang Quiapo.’
Was the decision to kill off Lovi’s character a spontaneous choice to shift the focus to Tanggol and Bubbles?
According to a reliable source, Lovi’s commitment to Coco Martin’s series was only for one year. Her involvement in ‘FPJ’s Batang Quiapo’ was scheduled to conclude by December 2023. Ivana’s entry as Bubbles had nothing to do with the decision to end Lovi’s character, and the source clarified that Lovi had other commitments.
Jun Lalin’s source revealed in Abante, “Mas mahaba pa sana ang tatakbuhin ng character ni Lovi sa ‘FPJ’s Batang Quiapo’, pero nakaisang taon na kasi at may iba pang commitments si Lovi kaya hanggang doon na lang talaga. Wala namang problem ‘yon kay Coco. Malinaw naman na isang taon lang talaga si Lovi sa serye.”
Furthermore, the source stated that Lovi is not pregnant, dispelling any rumors related to her departure from the series. Lovi has upcoming projects, including a significant action movie and a drama. While there is speculation about Lovi Poe taking on another teleserye before potentially starting a family, no official announcements have been made.
Fans have expressed their desire for a film featuring Lovi and Coco, given their excellent chemistry in ‘FPJ’s Batang Quiapo.’ If this materializes, it would undoubtedly be a thrilling collaboration for the audience.
