Pilot and content creator Chezka Carandang and internet personality Katrice Kierulf had fans buzzing after sharing a sweet, intimate video that confirmed speculations they are dating.
On Instagram, Chezka and Katrice posted clips from a recent beach getaway, set to the song “Yours” by maye.
“The kind of love you don’t go looking for… it just happens, and suddenly everything makes sense never knew love could feel this calm, this sure, this right 😌,” Chezka wrote in the caption.
In the video, the two were seen having sweet moments, watching the sunset together, holding hands and hugging each other, and even playfully teasing a kiss.
The video quickly gathered attention from followers and netizens, with more than 8 million views and 400 thousand likes and followers flooding the comments section with messages of support.
“Sa wakas! Nagpost na talaga!! Happy for you both and love you both guys @katricekierulf,” a follower said.
Another one stated, “Mag diwang Ang mga #Chezkat huhuhu Ito na guys hinihintay natin waAaaahh HARD LAUNCH IS OVEEERRRRRRR❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍”
Katrice and Chezka sparked dating rumors as supporters began shipping them online in the past months. The speculation intensified as the two were then seen together in Boracay.
Both came from long-term relationships. Katrice was previously with Kapuso actress Klea Pineda. The two called it quits last July 2025 with Klea confirming their split in an interview with Boy Abunda. The actress said that it was a "mutual decision” as they realized that they were no longer helping each other grow.
“Tatlong taon na punong puno ng pagmamahal. Hindi ko alam kung swerte ba ako dahil nakilala kita at naging parte ka ng buhay ko o malas kasi binigay ka nga sa akin pero may hangganan din naman. Salamat sa pagmamahal na binigay mo sa akin, Kat. Lagi mong tatandaan na kahit anong mangyari, hindi mawawala pagmamahal ko sa'yo,” Klea said in a post.
Meanwhile, Chezka announced on December 31, 2025 that she and former partner Claire Inso had ended their eight-year relationship and called off their engagement. In a heartfelt post, she reflected on the difficulty of letting go despite still having love for one another.
“Not every connection is meant to last forever, and an ending is not a failure. Sometimes, it’s a sign of growth and completion. Sometimes, it is a sign of beauty. Sometimes, it is a sign of the truest love of all—the willingness to let someone chase the life that’s calling to them,” she said.
“One of the hardest decisions is walking away from a relationship when there’s still so much love for the person, choosing what’s right even when it hurts 🥹,” she said in another post.
