Ricci Rivero has found himself at the center of a social media storm due to ongoing speculation about his alleged romance with Councilor Leren Bautista.
Recent rumors about their relationship have attracted widespread attention.
In response to the persistent rumors and discussions on social media, Ricci Rivero posted a photo on his Instagram account. The picture features him, his rumored girlfriend, his father Ruzcko Rivero, and younger brother Gelo Rivero. This family portrait appears to be Ricci’s way of addressing the constant speculation.
Councilor Leren Bautista, a former beauty queen and athlete, has also faced criticism and negative comments from online critics. She attended a basketball game alongside Ricci, where they watched a match between the UP Fighting Maroons and the DLSU Green Archers at the SM MOA Arena.
The online critics did not hold back and subjected both individuals to offensive remarks.
It is worth noting that the comments on their social media posts, as well as posts from news media and production companies, have been predominantly unkind. Much of the online criticism revolves around Ricci’s past relationship with Andrea Brillantes, which garnered significant public attention.
In a recent development, it appears that Ricci Rivero has decided to address the ongoing criticism. He posted a tweet on his ‘X’ account in response to the negative comments, stating, “Ah wala pumapansin sayo sa bahay kaya dito ka hahanap ng papansin? Lol as bida bida.”

This situation raises questions about when and how the public will accept Ricci’s new relationship, assuming the rumors are true. It also prompts speculation about whether Ricci and Councilor Leren will eventually confirm their relationship and how their fans will respond.
