Actor Alden Richards became a trending topic on social media after sharing a cryptic post that left fans speculating about its meaning.
In a now-deleted Instagram Story, Richards posted, "Food for thought: Mind your own business…"—a statement that quickly fueled discussions online.
Fans were quick to connect his message to the recent buzz surrounding Kathryn Bernardo and her rumored reconciliation with ex-boyfriend Daniel Padilla.
Speculation grew as Richards had previously been linked to Kathryn, especially after starring together in two blockbuster films, Hello, Love, Goodbye and its sequel, Hello, Love, Again.
Their undeniable chemistry sparked rumors that Alden had been courting Kathryn even before the official announcement of their second movie, as they were frequently seen together.
However, when asked about their real status, Richards remained vague but dismissed the courting rumors. He clarified that while he and Kathryn share a strong bond, the claims of him pursuing her were not true.
More recently, reports surfaced that the Kapuso actor had stopped pursuing the Kapamilya actress, leading to mixed reactions online. Some netizens expressed disappointment, while others speculated on the real reason behind his cryptic post.
