Relationship Rumors: What’s Really Happening Between Kim and Paulo?

In our previous updates, many fans expressed their hopes and concerns about the relationship between Kim Chiu and Paulo Avelino. Some viewers noted Kim’s hesitation to confirm their status as a couple, worrying about the public’s quick judgment.

One commenter, Gilang Marlen Acorda, shared their thoughts saying:

“Kim said she doesn’t want to confirm their relationship yet because people might say it’s too fast since they just met. But whether fast or slow, what matters most is that they understand each other.”

This sentiment resonates with many fans who emphasize that love has no timeline, and private decisions should be respected. Another fan, Ginang Editana Donza, encouraged Kim to be brave and open, assuring her of fans’ continued support:

“Paulo seems ready to admit their relationship, but Kim might still be hesitant. We hope she finds strength and trust to open up. We love and support you both.”

Indeed, it appears Paulo Avelino is eager to be honest with the public, while Kim Chiu is still cautious, perhaps wanting to protect their private life from the intense spotlight.

Kim and Paulo’s Projects Continue to Shine

While fans speculate on their personal lives, professionally, Kim and Paulo’s projects are gaining traction both locally and internationally. Their movie, My Level, recently ranked in Netflix’s Top 10 across various countries, a testament to their growing popularity.

The film’s success has sparked excitement among “Kimpaw” fans and opened doors for more collaborations in the future. It’s clear that whether on-screen or off, the duo continues to captivate audiences.

The Symbolism Behind Paulo Holding Kim’s Hand

A recent photo circulating online shows Paulo Avelino gently holding Kim Chiu’s hand in a way that, according to Filipino hand symbolism, signifies protection. Fans have interpreted this gesture as Paulo’s way of showing he will protect Kim from harm, both emotionally and physically.

This subtle but powerful message has warmed the hearts of many supporters, reinforcing the idea that their relationship, whatever its current status, is built on trust and care.

Senator Subiri’s Call for Celebrities to Pull Out of Online Gambling Endorsements

Shifting gears to a more serious topic, several high-profile celebrities, including Kim Chiu, have recently come under scrutiny for endorsing online gambling platforms. Senator Migsubiri has publicly urged these celebrities to withdraw their endorsements, citing the harmful effects of gambling on Filipino families, especially the youth.

In a media interview on July 7, Senator Subiri said:

“We appeal to famous artists endorsing online gambling to reconsider. Your influence can either help or harm our people. We ask you to pull out from these endorsements to protect our youth from addiction and financial hardship.”

Celebrities such as Kim Chiu, Alden Richards, Nadine Lustre, Vice Ganda, and Bik Soto are reportedly promoting various online gambling sites, including Bingo Plus. Senator Subiri emphasized that although these endorsements might be lucrative, the social cost is too high to ignore.

The senator also recently filed the Anti-Online Gambling Act of 2025, aiming to ban all forms of online gambling in the Philippines. This move follows the Marcos administration’s crackdown on offshore gaming operations (POGOs), which have been criticized for corruption, security issues, and societal harm.

Public Reaction and What Lies Ahead

The call for celebrities to withdraw from gambling endorsements has generated mixed reactions among fans and the public. Some support the senator’s initiative, applauding the focus on protecting vulnerable Filipinos. Others express concern for the careers of their favorite stars, hoping for a balanced approach.

What is clear is that the issue of gambling addiction remains a pressing social problem, and influential figures have a role to play in shaping public behavior responsibly.
