HyGab fans got their dose of sweet moments, but Gazini Ganados’ appearance in the crowd reignited dating rumors with Gab Lagman.

Gab Lagman and Hyacinth Callado had fans watching their every move at the Viva All-Star Games, but one familiar face in the crowd quickly became the bigger story.

Lagman, who captained Team Viva One at the Smart Araneta Coliseum, was cheered on by his on-screen partner Callado, who performed on court as a cheerleader for Viva Records. Their sweet interactions fueled more HyGab kilig, but an eagle-eyed netizen spotted Miss Universe Philippines 2019 Gazini Ganados watching from the crowd, wearing a mask and hoodie.

The sighting immediately revived the long-running Gab-Gazini dating speculation, with netizens joking, “So legal, they do this in front of the real BFF.”

Gab and Gazini have been close friends for years, with the actor previously clarifying that they are “best friends” who have known each other for around nine years. Dating rumors surrounding the pair began in 2023 and resurfaced through sightings of them together, including during Gazini’s international pageant stints.

Still, some fans remain unconvinced, arguing that the pair may be keeping their relationship private because of the Philippines’ intense love-team culture.

“This just proves how toxic the loveteam culture in the Philippines is,” one netizen wrote, suggesting that artists may feel pressured to hide real-life relationships to avoid backlash from fans who blur the line between onscreen romance and reality.

HyGab continues to thrive, with Lagman and Callado appearing together in projects including “Chasing in the Wild,” “Bad Genius: The Series,” and “OJT: Hours of Love.”
