Kapamilya stars Maris Racal and Anthony Jennings made waves online after appearing together at the fan conference for ABS-CBN’s upcoming series ‘Incognito’ on January 7.
The event, held at a popular mall in Taguig, was attended by cast members Richard Gutierrez, Daniel Padilla, Baron Geisler, Kaila Estrada, and Ian Veneracion.
The fan con marked the first public appearance of Racal and Jennings following the controversy involving Villanueva, Jennings’ former girlfriend, who shared screenshots allegedly showing intimate conversations between the two celebrities. The issue prevented them from joining promotions for their MMFF entry ‘And The Breadwinner Is…’ last December.
Despite the past scandal, Racal and Jennings appeared professional and in high spirits. Social media posts from the event showed them seated next to each other on stage, engaging with fans alongside their co-stars. This sparked various reactions online, making “Maris Racal” and “Anthony Jennings” trend on X (formerly Twitter).
Netizens expressed a range of emotions, from excitement to skepticism. Some fans couldn’t help but comment on the chemistry between Racal and Jennings.
