Alden was expected to grace the PH Esports Awards, but chose to attend Kathryn’s housewarming party instead.

The KathDen ship is sailing stronger than ever before.

On April 11, 2023, Kathryn Bernardo unlocked a brand-new milestone: the completion of her family’s dream home after eight years.

To celebrate, she hosted a grand housewarming party.

Featuring a lively DJ booth and a generous bar of cocktails and beverages, guests reveled in the festivities—dancing, conversing, enjoying themselves to the fullest.

Amid the booze and the grooving, Kathryn and her Hello, Love, Goodbye co-lead star Alden Richards, not only graciously attended to their guests but also became the center of attention through the night.

ACTS OF SERVICE

A video that quickly went viral captures Kathryn and Alden grabbing drinks from behind the bar counter when they were surprised by a guest sneaking up from behind.

The crowd later asked Kathryn to dance to Water by Tyla, making for more fun and lighthearted moments.

Another footage showed their seamless teamwork as Alden wanted to know from Kathryn whether to pass the drinks to their friends he held on a tray.

Their comfortable and cozy dynamic left fans giddy, with one X (formerly Twitter) user mirroring the scene to Taylor Swift‘s lyrics in the song Lover.

They wrote (published as is): “why do kathryn and alden look like we can leave the christmas light up ’til january here”

At one point, Alden was spotted holding Kathryn’s mini hand fan, attentive to her comfort while she was engaged in chatter with other friends.

UNEXPECTED APPEARANCE

Fans felt that the Kapuso actor’s acts of thoughtfulness indicated that he actually fancied Kathryn for real.

This was fueled by another X user who revealed how they were not even expecting Alden to show up at Kathryn’s party because he was expected at another event.

“Huhu alam niyo bang may awarding dapat siyang pupuntahan kagabi kaya di kami umasa na nandoon siya sa house blessing???

“He was expected to grace the PH Esports Award kasi nominated siya for 3 categories pero he’s not there, nandoon siya sa bahay nina Kath”

Among Kathryn’s fellow Kapamilya who attended the event were ABS-CBN President and Chief Executive Officer Carlo Katigbak, Piolo Pascual, Dimples Romana, Maymay Entrata, Chie Filomeno, Loisa Andalio, Darren Espanto, Robi Domingo with wife Maiqui Pineda, and Dominic Roque.
