💖 THE UNLEASHED CONFESSION! 💖 Paulo Avelino’s Scorching Gaze, Kim Chiu’s Demand, and the Shocking On-Stage Admission That Sent KimPau Fans Into Cardiac Arrest!

The ABS-CBN Christmas Special 2025 was supposed to be a standard holiday spectacle, but for the millions of KimPau Nation loyalists, it became the night of their lives. Amidst the glitz and the crowd, Kim Chiu and Paulo Avelino exchanged a searing, on-stage confession that wasn’t just kilig (thrilling)—it was a blatant, romantic declaration that seemed to confirm the end of their secrecy and the beginning of their official, public romance!
This dramatic confession, coupled with Paulo’s famously “consistent” and burning gaze and the shocking public kiss from the Coco Martin-Julia Montes pairing, unleashed an explosion of ecstatic fan mania, cementing KimPau’s status as the most emotionally volatile and intensely loved couple in Philippine showbiz.
The Unthinkable Confession: “I Always Choose You!”
The climax of the ABS-CBN Christmas Special arrived with the sudden, charged exchange between Kim and Paulo—a moment so raw, it felt less like a script and more like a private conversation accidentally broadcast to the nation.
The conversation, framed dramatically by the festive setting, went like this:
Paulo: “So, you choose me?” (Translation of: “So ako pala ang pipiliin mo.”) Kim: “I always choose you! But what about you? Who do you choose?” (Translation of: “Lagi naman kitang pinipili. Ikaw ba sino bang pinipili mo?”) Paulo: “Of course, who else? You are the one I called my duet partner.” (Translation of: “Syempre sino pa ba? Ikaw naman na ’yung tinawag kong ka-duet.”)
The crowd erupted in screams, convinced this was the long-awaited, semi-official tapatan (declaration) of their love. Fans immediately interpreted this exchange as the couple finally “admitting” their relationship, strategically using the grand platform of the Christmas Special—and following the recent, explicit admissions of other famous couples—to signal their commitment.
This public confession validated the years of patience and speculation from the KimPau Nation, proving that their relentless support was not in vain.
The Gaze of Possession: Paulo’s Consistent Intensity
Beyond the verbal confirmation, fans highlighted the silent, potent evidence that has fueled their kilig for years: Paulo Avelino’s eyes.
A viral post perfectly captured the fanbase’s obsession: “Find the man that looks at you the way Paulo Avelino looks at Kimchu.”
Fans noted that Paulo’s gaze upon Kim is “very consistent,” never fading from the beginning of their partnership until now. He looks at her as if “he doesn’t notice anyone else”—not the audience, not the venue, only Kim.
“My heart feels like it’s going to explode from the kilig here. Look at their faces! It’s like they just fell in love all over again!”
This unwavering visual intensity has always been the strongest evidence of their off-screen connection. The Christmas Special simply confirmed what the fans already knew: Paulo’s affection is not just a stage performance; it’s an internal, constant reality.
The Coco-Julia Coup: Raising the Stakes for Public Love

The pressure on KimPau was undoubtedly raised moments before, when Coco Martin and Julia Montes—another extremely private and long-rumored couple—shared a very public kiss on the same stage.
One fan hilariously reacted to the Coco-Julia kiss by saying: “If #KimPau had done that, we wouldn’t even know who killed Walter because we would all be dead before Friday!”
This comparison is crucial. Coco and Julia’s explicit, public kiss served as a template, forcing the famously private KimPau to decide how they would signal their status. Their verbal confession, while not a physical kiss, achieved the same result: a definitive, public move away from ambiguity and toward mutual ownership.
The Lakam Curse: The Shadow of Past Betrayal
In a stark contrast to the joy of KimPau, the latest news cycle was dominated by fans’ fervent warnings to Kim Chiu about her former associate, Lakam. Comments from viewers like Ginang Vergat Chalian and Ginang Marites Areliano revealed the deep, lingering trauma from a massive financial betrayal involving the loss of millions of pesos.
Ginang Vergat Chalian: “Lakam killed Kim’s beautiful future towards her old age… While Kim sees Lakam, it will be difficult for Kim to move on.”
Ginang Marites Areliano: “Lakam recklessly wasted Kim’s money… just because he was given the right, he mercilessly emptied his sister’s money.”
This ongoing resentment underscores the gravity of Kim’s past heartbreak. The fans’ desperate demand for justice against Lakam highlights their protective vigilance over Kim. This past betrayal serves as the dark backdrop to her current relationship, making the sincerity and stability of Paulo’s devotion even more crucial.
The KimPau Nation is not just celebrating a confession; they are celebrating Kim’s redemption—a shift from the trauma of financial and emotional betrayal to the possibility of a stable, public love with a man whose gaze is only for her.
The ABS-CBN Christmas Special 2025 will be remembered as the night the unbreakable gaze of Paulo Avelino finally met the unambiguous choice of Kim Chiu, sending their long-held secret into the joyous, screaming arms of their entire nation.
