Actor Alden Richards admitted in the Fast Talk With Boy Abunda episode from last October 9 that he had feelings for Maine Mendoza, a member of a past love team.

In his interview, he said, “Yes po. Hypocrite po ako kung hindi and yes po. Ayoko pong sabihin na alam niya. Pero I did. I did confess.” [Yes. I’m a hypocrite if I didn’t and yes. I don’t want to say that she knows but I did. I did confess.].

Alden and Yaya Dub's stage name is "Aldub," which was Maine's "alias" when she first appeared in the "Eat Bulaga" segment "Kalyeserye." The couple gained popularity in 2015, which led to them collaborating on numerous projects and commercials.

The actor agreed when the host asked him whether Aldub was his biggest relationship and if it was also his biggest breakup. "I am very appreciative of Maine," he remarked. By all circumstances, Eat Bulaga has my deepest gratitude.

“It’s also a breakup but let’s remove the negative context of breakup in this conversation with Aldub,” he added. “It doesn’t necessarily mean that when you’re going through a breakup, laging masama, laging masakit, laging malungkot [that is always bad, always hurting, always sad]. It was a breakup because both of us, Maine and I, we needed growth. We needed to venture out into our individual lives, to learn more, and move forward.”

People's reactions to what he stated on the broadcast are ambiguous, and some even doubt his sincerity.
