What's up with Cristine Reyes?

CEBU, Philippines - More and more celebrities have taken to social networking sites to express their inner thoughts and sentiments.

One of the most active and unguarded ones online is perhaps Cristine Reyes, one of FHM’s sexiest of the decade, who maintains and interacts with fans on her Facebook fanpage.

Reports have it that Cristine Reyes is dating anew actor, Dennis Trillo. While the 21-year-old actress has not confirmed outright the rumors that they have been going out again, with paparazzi photos to even prove it, she simply told the media during a recent Cebu visit for a mall tour among Metro Gaisano stores in Ayala, Mandaue, and Colon, that “Lumalabas kami. (We go out.) What you see is what you get.”

Cristine is known to be clipped with her answers, but not so on Facebook and Twitter. And if we are to gauge her posts, it seems all’s not well again with her on-and-off relationship with Trillo.

She posted about “being sad,” “being kilig but it’s not right” and about “being single.” “Being single is not the end of the world, what is the end of the world is when you stop trying to find your next soulmate,” she posted, garnering over 300 reactions from fans.

By the way, after last year’s “Eva Fonda,” wherein she played the titular role and which earned her an acting citation in the 2009 Seoul Drama Awards in South Korea, Cristine will soon have her own drama series again entitled “Precious Hearts Romances: Kristine Series.” She will also be starring in “Working Girls,” a remake of the 80s sexy comedy directed by the late Ishmael Bernal. The joint big-screen project of Viva Films and GMA Films, it also stars Ruffa Gutierrez, Eugene Domingo, Iza Calzado, and Jennylyn Mercado.

Looks like 2010 is poised to be a good follow-through to how busy she was in 2009. But it will be remembered that 2009 was not just eventful for Cristine’s career, but also in her personal life. When typhoon Ondoy hit the Philippines, and left most of Metro Manila submerged in water, the actress was one of the most high-profile people who also became flood victims. Her dramatic rescue, carried out by fellow actor Richard Gutierrez, even landed in the foreign news. 

While the experience as “traumatic,” she told the Cebu media recently that she has learned one thing: “It was time to return to God.”

Cristine, who was raised as a Born Again Christian, said, “Maybe I was made the instrument for the youth because we have become so worldly and liberated… that we still need to have faith in God.”
