Basketball star Kobe Paras recently caused a stir among fans by sharing an adorable photo of actress Kyline Alcantara.

Soft launch? Kobe Paras shares adorable photo of Kyline Alcantara

Paras had already caught fans’ attention with a simple emoji comment on Alcantara’s Instagram post. The heart emoji on his story further fueled excitement and speculation about their relationship status.

Fans quickly reacted to Paras’ post with enthusiasm.

Alcantara has yet to respond to Paras’ Instagram story, and neither has confirmed their rumored relationship.

Alcantara was previously linked to actor-TV host Mavy Legaspi, but she unfollowed him on Instagram around the same time she started sharing similar photos with Paras. Paras, the son of actor-comedian Benjie Paras and actress Jacki Forster, was previously in a relationship with Erika, the eldest daughter of actress Ina Raymundo.
