Sachzna Laparan’s character Anastacia may be single in the latter part of the digital series How To Move In 30 Days, but she’s actually in a relationship and very much happy with actor-boyfriend Jerome Ponce.
Their romance may be met with varied reactions due to their past relationships, but the two apparently just brushed those all off and blessed the Instagram feeds of their supporters with their lovely photos together, such as the ones included in this gallery.
Not much was written yet about their relationship, which had left fans and showbiz onlookers wondering how their love story started. In her guesting in Magandang Buhay last May together with her How To Move On In 30 Days co-stars Maris Racal, Jai Agpangan, and Kyo Quijano, she revealed that their romance began to bloom when she guested in a television program.
It all started when she invited him to join her in one of her vlogs then and they amazingly clicked right off the bat. She initially just considered him as a tropa, but little they did know that sparks were already flying between them until Jerome asked her if she has a crush on him, which made them realize that they’re indeed in love. Since he’s an actor, Sachzna disclosed that Jerome isn’t used to vlogging yet, so she often has to persuade him to join her.
Those who have been following the social media influencer-actress would have probably heard this story as she narrated it in one of the vlogs she uploaded on her YouTube channel in August 2021.
According to her, it all started during her guesting in a Sunday noontime variety show, in which he was also a guest performer. That encounter was a case of “hate at first sight” as he allegedly told her that she’s “ma-attitude” because of a little dressing room mix-up. They then got to work together in a comedy program, where they became friends and grew closer.
She then imparted how she truly appreciated how he made efforts to bond with her friends and family, especially during her anxiety attacks. With the joy and comfort that he has brought into her life, as well as helping her to become a better version of herself and even at work, she has nothing but gratitude to her now “mahal”.
Sachzna went on to share that they’re currently living in the same subdivision, after she and her family transferred to a house near his, which they only found out later on. This has made it easier for them to see and reach one another.
For the past year, the lovely couple have been filling the IG feeds of their followers with their sweet photos together. They celebrated their first anniversary last May 11.
