Bea Alonzo and Sam Milby are now being linked romantically after admitting that they find the other “yummier” and “a good kisser.”

In previous interviews to promote their film, “And I Love You So,” the two said that their friendship has become stronger after spending more time shooting for the movie.

Such statements lead others to speculate on a brewing romance.

“Hindi mo naman pwedeng i-close ang doors sa possibilities, so hindi natin alam,” Bea said on the matter during her contract signing with Star Cinema early July.

She laughed when asked if Sam was a good kisser in the movie.

“Oo naman,” Bea agreed. “Pero para sa trabaho naman yun.”

Sam was vocal about his appreciation for Bea’s slimmer figure. “Yummier siya ngayon kasi in shape na in shape siya,” he referred to Bea who shed 15 pounds for her role.

Bea described Sam as a gentleman.

“At sobrang purehearted niya. Sobrang nakakatuwa kasi sobrang gullible niya…kasi tayo sobrang jaded na tayo sa mga nangyayari sa paligid natin, pero siya, hindi.

“And mahilig din siya manlibre sa set. Konting sabi mo lang ng, ‘Ay ang sarap naman ng ganitong food,’ [ay] bigla na ‘yang magpapabili for everyone,” she said.

In “The Buzz” on July 19, Sam was asked to whom he would say “And I love you so.”

“To Bea,” he said. “She’s been so nice to me the whole time… Malaki siyang tulong sa buhay ko, she’s been so caring.”

Bea rejoined by echoing her earlier statement: “Sa totoo lang, si Sam ang isa sa mga pinaka-purehearted na tao na nakilala ko. Hindi ko sinasabing childish siya, sinasabi ko yun kasi di ba yung mga bata, wala sa kanilang masamang tinapay? Laging magaganda yung intentions nila, [at] ganun [din] siya.”

In “And I Love You So,” Bea plays Lara and Sam plays Chris in a story about second chances. Their characters cross paths after Bea’s role loses her husband.

“It’s a mature role,” Sam said. “"First time naming dalawa na may love scene sa movie so [that means] first timers kami."

He added that Bea will be donning a two-piece bathing suit in one of the scenes.

“Ang gist nun, first time akong natuto na mag-out of town mag-isa so nag-decide ako na maging adventurous. Basta abangan na lang nila kasi baka masabi ko pa yung twists and turns nung story,” said Bea.

Should people also await a romantic twist to her and Sam’s story?

“Anything is possible naman. We’re both single and we’ve been friends for a long time,” Sam said.
