On February 14, Kim caught the attention of netizens when she posted a photo of a bouquet on Instagram with the caption, “Babae pala ako. 🌹✨😅🤭 Tenk yew. 🫡”. At the time, she did not reveal who sent the flowers, which immediately sparked curiosity among fans of the KimPau (her team up with Paulo Avelino) pairing.

The question was finally answered during the grand media conference of their series The Alibi: Ang Buong Katotohanan, when Kim was asked directly about the mystery sender.
Drawing cheers from fans and the media, she pointed to Paulo and said, “Siyempre sa kaniya.”
Paulo also confirmed the gesture himself, simply saying, “Sa akin.”
Kim then shared the meaning behind her previous Instagram caption.
“Ang dami kasing babaeng naglalakad nung araw na ‘yun, siyempre nadadaanan ko lang galing akong It’s Showtime, ang dami naming naglalakad na may hawak na bulaklak. Itong mga ‘to super naman talaga sa pagka-long hair. Pag-uwi ko ng bahay, hala may flowers din pala ako, girl pala ako,” Kim candidly said.
She went on to explain that what touched her most was the thought behind the gesture.
“Siyempre nakaka-girl talaga pag binigyan ka ng flower’s on Valentine’s. Hindi naman ‘yan sa gaano kalaki o kadami yung bulaklak. It’s the thought that counts. Yung maalala ka,” she continued.
Kim was grateful to Paulo, to which the actor then responded warmly, “Masaya ako na masaya ka.”
Kim echoed the sentiment, adding, “Happy din ako na napapa-happy niya ako.”

Paulo, meanwhile, shared that he also spent the day at home.
