What fans spotted in Kyline Alcantara and Kobe Paras’ IG accounts

With Kyline being a thriving, single woman nowadays, her followers seemed to be a little bit more excited than ever to see signs of Kyline’s love life blossoming once again. On Sunday, May 19, 2024, the Kapuso actress posted her usual “IG dump” or what we see as a photo carousel of random snaps or videos she took during her daily life.

The post included some behind-the-scenes of her projects, selcas, and other sceneries seen through Kyline’s lens. But the most interesting of it all was two snaps of a restaurant, which Kyline geo-tagged. It was in Helm by Josh Boutwood.

Almost at the same time, Kobe uploaded a photo on his Instagram stories. The photo was captured allegedly almost at the same angle and position of how Kyline’s photo also appeared.

This is when some followers of Kyline directly asked her, “Hala, are you with Kobe [Paras]?” Other netizens followed suit and began speculating about Kyline and Kobe’s connection, almost not thinking that the photos might be just a coincidence.

ICYMI, Kyline made headlines in the past for her breakup with ex-boyfriend Mavy Legaspi. Controversies surrounded their breakup, which they did not explicitly announce. The two started hanging out in 2021, owning the love team MavLine.

The couple’s split gained traction after Kyline posted cryptic posts that netizens think allude to the reason for their breakup. On November 24, Friday, Kyline tweeted, “I knew it,” drawing various reactions from her followers.

Kyline and Mavy never addressed the issues about their broken relationship. Fans somehow just accepted the fact that they can never be together for now in any of their projects.

On the other hand, Kobe has long been reported to have built a relationship with Erika Poturnak. Kobe and Erika sparked dating rumors in 2022 after they posted sweet PDA pics of them together. They also had a fair share of overseas travels together, starting from their Bali to California.

But in March 2023, Erika’s mom, Ina Raymundo, spilled the beans and confirmed that Erika and Kobe had broken up. The reason? They didn’t survive their long-distance relationship. At the time, Erika is already studying in the US, while Kobe is focusing on his training as a pro basketball player in Japan.

“Kahit na compatible pa sila or hindi compatible, how can you make a relationship work kung nasa East Coast yung isa tapos nasa Asia ka? Pano magwowork yun? Ang hirap talaga ng long-distance relationship,” Ina said in an interview with journalist Rose Fabregas.

P.S. As always, it’s best to take everything with a grain of salt since no one mentioned in this story has gone on the record to confirm or deny their relationships. We’ll keep you updated once that changes, though!
