Actor Jak Roberto is making significant progress on a personal milestone: building his dream house.
The project, which he has frequently shared updates about on social media, is now entering the finishing stages.
Jak took to Instagram to celebrate the milestone, writing: “After ilang months, naitayo na ang pangarap kong bahay! Mas pahirap na ng pahirap dahil finishing na next! Kapit lang, mabubuo ka rin!”
The house appears to be more than just a personal achievement—it’s a testament to his love for longtime girlfriend, actress Barbie Forteza. Barbie has been a frequent visitor to the construction site, as seen in Jak’s posts. Her involvement hints that the home is being built with their future in mind.

Jak has openly acknowledged Barbie as his inspiration for the project, expressing his dream of one day living with her in the house.
Jak and Barbie, collectively known as “JakBie” by their fans, have been together since 2017. Their romance began on the set of ‘Meant to Be’, a GMA Network romcom where Jak was one of Barbie’s on-screen partners.
Though rumors of their real-life relationship initially swirled, the couple eventually confirmed their status later that year. Memorable moments, such as their public Instagram posts during Barbie’s 20th birthday, fueled fans’ excitement. In one post, Barbie held hands with an unnamed companion, later revealed to be Jak, solidifying their romance in the eyes of their supporters.
Over the years, the couple has celebrated numerous milestones. From a virtual anniversary date during the pandemic to a memorable fifth-anniversary trip to Bohol, Jak and Barbie have consistently proven that their bond is genuine and enduring.
With Jak’s dream home nearing completion, fans are eagerly speculating about the next step in the couple’s journey. Could wedding bells be in the near future?
