Maris Racal speaks out on 'couple shoes' rumor with Anthony Jennings amid  romance speculations - Brigada News Philippines



Kapamilya actress Maris Racal dismissed rumors that she and her on-screen partner Anthony Jennings are wearing “couple shoes” after netizens noticed their matching footwear in Italy, filming the upcoming action-drama series Incognito.

The speculation started in September 2024 when a photo of Maris and Anthony seated together and resting went viral. Observant fans quickly noted that the two wore identical rubber shoes, sparking online chatter that the pair might be sporting “couple shoes.”

‘It’s Just a Coincidence,’ Says Maris

Maris was asked about the matching shoes during the Opulence Ball on October 21, 2024. Laughing off the rumors, she clarified, “It was purely coincidental. We didn’t plan to wear the same shoes.” She explained that she has owned her pair for two years, adding, “It just so happened that Anthony had the same style.”

The issue gained traction as Maris is currently single, having recently ended her five-year relationship with Rico Blanco. Since the split, fans have linked Maris and Anthony, further fueled by the viral photo. However, Maris has firmly stated that Anthony was not involved in her breakup with Rico.

Anthony’s Relationship Status and Jam’s Cryptic Posts

While Maris remains single, Anthony reportedly has a relationship with non-showbiz girlfriend Jam Villanueva. Recently, though, Jam has posted a series of cryptic quotes on her X (formerly Twitter) account, touching on themes like betrayal and jealousy. This has led fans to speculate about possible trouble in their relationship.

Jam’s posts include phrases such as “time always reveals true colors” and “I will never forget your conversation with the girl you told me not to worry about,” sparking further suspicion among netizens. Her posts have led many to believe jealousy might be a factor, potentially linking her sentiments to Anthony’s partnership with Maris.

As of this writing, neither Anthony nor Jam has confirmed any changes in their relationship status, leaving fans speculating about the status of both pairs amidst the on-screen chemistry and off-screen controversies.
