MANILA, Philippines – “Alam mo, I’m not in the position to comment about that,†Jessy Mendiola said when asked to comment on Matteo Guidicelli and his rumored romance with Sarah Geronimo.
During a media gathering for mouthwash AstringOSol recently, Jessy refused to comment on the reported relationship of Matteo and Sarah. It can be remembered that Jessy was linked to the Kapamilya actor early last year while doing the afternoon soap opera “Paraiso,†although they did not officially become a couple.
“Whatever is happening between them, okay na yun sa kanila. Hindi ako kasali dun,†Jessy said.

The Kapamilya actress said she remains single, after Sam Milby and Jake Cuenca — the two men who expressed romantic interest in her last year — have stopped courting her.
“Weird, wala pang nanliligaw,†she quipped. “I’m open. I’ve been open to panliligaw or dating ever since. Wala naman akong restrictions.â€
“Nasusupladahan siguro sila sa akin. Natatakot siguro sila,†Jessy further joked.
Jessy, who recently starred in the soap opera “Maria Mercedes,†is working on a Star Cinema movie with John Lloyd Cruz, Gretchen Barretto, and Richard Gomez.
However, the shoot for the movie is currently on hold because of John Lloyd’s recent accident.
“May mga revisions din sa movie pero definitely tuloy kasi they have bigger plans for the film. I’m not allowed to say it yet but it’s really good,†she said. Jessy is also in talks to do another soap opera after “Maria Mercedes.â€

Has Jessy, who said good oral hygiene is an important part of being an actress, ever encountered a co-actor with bad breath?
“Alam mo kadalasan naman nangyayari yan, e. Hindi naman talaga maiiwasan yun pero I do encourage them to take care of their hygiene,†she said in jest.
