While Coco Martin and Julia Montes have long remained mum about their relationship, Willie Revillame might have had a slip of the tongue after he thanked the couple and their “children” in his new show “Wil To Win.”

Revillame caught the attention of netizens after he inadvertently revealed that the longtime couple allegedly has children during the premiere of his new show “Wil To Win” on Sunday, July 14.

Martin was among the celebrities who congratulated the host on his TV comeback through a video message, to which the latter is thankful.

“I like your bangs, ha. Maganda ng bangs ni Tanggol ngayon (I like your bangs. Tanggol has nice bangs now),” he began, referring to the actor-director using his character in “Batang Quiapo.”

“Coco, salamat ha. Mabait, sobrang bait nitong si Coco Martin. To Coco, Julia, at ‘yung mga anak niyo, pamilya mo, salamat Coco at noong Holy Week, magkasama tayo,” he continued. “Sana dumating ang time na maging guest mo ko sa ‘Batang Quiapo.’ Bibigyan na lang kita ng jacket.”

(Coco, thank you. Coco Martin is very kind. To Coco, Julia, and your children, your family. Thank you, Coco, and last Holy Week, we were together. I hope there will come a time when you’ll invite me to be part of “Batang Quiapo.” I’ll just give you a jacket.)

Martin and Montes have yet to confirm nor deny the rumors, as of press time.

The “Batang Quiapo” star confirmed his 12-year relationship with Montes in May 2023, putting an end to the longstanding rumors about their status. Rumors of the couple having children also circulated, but both of them have yet to address them.

Despite this, both of them opted to keep their romance private. Five months after the confirmation, Montes said they’ll “cross the bridge when [they] get there” when asked about their rumored engagement.

Meanwhile, Revillame marked his return to TV with his new game show “Wil To Win” on the Kapatid network.
