Could it be true that the upcoming ABS-CBN teleserye “I Love Betty La Fea” is another John Lloyd Cruz-Bea Alonzo team up? Well, contrary to analyses from showbiz columnists and bloggers alike that the Kapamilya network’s management has given the coveted role of Armando, Betty La Fea’s boss-turned-love interest-turned husband, to dreamy young actor Jake Cuenca, there have been insider information confirming that ABS-CBN’s head honchos have reportedly signed up John Lloyd Cruz for the said role. In a recent interview, too, John Lloyd said that he is open to the possibility of playing the role of Armando as compares himself to a soldier who follows the management’s decision for his career.

This item from the rumor mill goes against earlier claims that John Lloyd and Bea are going their separate ways albeit temporarily to focus on their individual careers. Nevertheless, this seems to be a welcome development in the series as their loveteam has stood the test of time and has proven to be a formidable pairing. The fact remains, however, that until ABS-CBN reveals the identity of this actor, your guess will be as good as mine.
