The buzz is loud in the sports and entertainment world as rumors swirl about a possible new romance in the life of volleyball superstar Alyssa Valdez.
During an episode of ‘Fast Talk with Boy Abunda’ aired on Tuesday, November 19, Valdez was teased about her connection with Japanese volleyball player Ran Takahashi.
While she stopped short of confirming anything, Valdez had nothing but kind words for the Japanese athlete.
“He’s super nice, good-looking, plays well as well,” she said.
Valdez also shared an anecdote about Takahashi’s interaction with his Filipino fans, praising his commitment to showing appreciation even under time constraints.
“One thing kaya din very interactive ‘yong conversation namin because back then during that time kailangan niya agad bumalik ng Japan, and he wanted to show his love for all the fans kasi hindi niya po natapos ‘yung mga games niya dito sa Manila,” Valdez explained.
Host Boy Abunda couldn’t resist asking if there was a “spark” between the two, but Valdez only smiled in response. However, when pressed further on whether someone new was making her happy, she candidly admitted: “Guilty.”
