What's to become of GMA Network's phenomenal Alden Richards-Maine Mendoza love team?

The question comes to mind as Alden and Maine, aka AlDub, are now pursuing separate TV projects.

Alden will top-bill, solo, the new prime time series Victor Magtanggol.

It has been confirmed that he will no longer be paired with Maine, Alden's perennial leading lady in movies and at one time in the teleserye Destined to Be Yours .

On the other hand, speculation is rife that Maine will be teamed up with Kapamilya star Coco Martin for a 2018 Metro Manila Film Festival entry.

She is also working on her first solo album.

Both had a solo guest appearance in GMA-7's Daig Kayo Ng Lola Ko, hinting at their move to do separate TV projects.

Alden and Maine made record-breaking history in showbiz following the success of Eat Bulaga 's "Kalyeserye" that aired from July 16, 2015 to December 17, 2016.

Their love team as Alden and Yaya Dub (AlDub) became known for embodying Filipino values with their traditional courtship—it showed respect for elders and patience for things to fall into place within "tamang panahon."

But now, as the duo mark their third anniversary as a love team, their fans are raising questions: Is the love team of AlDub breaking up? Is this just a temporary split in terms of TV projects?

After all, Alden and Maine still co-host together in the Kapuso noontime show that gave birth to their phenomenal tandem.

The answers remain uncertain.

In the meantime, PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) traces the most unforgettable reel and real-life moments of the phenomenal love team that is AlDub:

2010. Alden was shocked that an old photo of himself and Maine circulated on social media, he admitted this to PEP.ph in an August 2015 interview.

He was referring to a much earlier time. Alden said he was not in showbiz yet when he joined Summit Media's annual Candy Fair in 2010.

“May mangilan-ngilan pong nagpa-picture, pero I really didn’t remember.

“So, nagulat ako na may ganun palang photo.”

Another time, Alden was again explaining, “Just to clarify things talaga with everyone, hindi scripted yung hindi namin pagkikita."

Alden and Maine were yet to meet face-to-face in the "Kalyeserye" segment of Eat Bulaga!

“Talagang we’ve never met each other. We’re not texting, we’re not calling each other," he said in the September 2015 episode of PEPTalk.

"And yung sagutan lang namin sa social media is pakiramdaman lang.”

JULY 16, 2015. Maine was first introduced as Yaya Dub, the alalay of Wally Bayola, aka Lola Nidora, in the July 4 episode of Eat Bulaga! ’s "Juan For All, All For Juan" segment.

Her role was to do Dubsmash, which entailed dubbing recorded spiels and not using her own speaking voice.

But on July 16, 2015, Maine broke into an unscripted giddy smile just as Alden’s dimpled face was flashed on the split screen—and their destiny changed in an instant.

Noting her reaction, Allan K and Joey de Leon (who were on the studio) as well as Jose Manalo and Wally (who were in Sugod Bahay's remote location) immediately teased Maine about crushing on the Pambansang Bae.

No one among them had yet realized a phenomenon was happening before their eyes.

SEPTEMBER 5, 2015. Alden and Yaya Dub’s first face-to-face meeting happened in the Broadway Centrum studio of Eat Bulaga! on September 5, 2015.

Emotions ran high when they finally saw each other in person, with Yaya Dub smiling shyly at Alden.

Their meeting was cut short, however, when a plywood suddenly fell from the ceiling, preventing them from getting close enough to touch each other.

Unwittingly, the mishap only heightened the giddiness of the moment.

Aside from the Eat Bulaga! hosts, other celebrities joined netizens in tweeting about Alden and Yaya Dub’s super kilig but bitin meeting.

Among them were Jodi Sta. Maria, Iya Villania, Lani Mercado, and Jonalyn Viray.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2015. What was Alden’s first impression of the real Maine?

“Ang first impression ko kay Maine, very fun person, always gives out everything," he said in a pre-taped PEPTalk video, published on September 12, 2015.

"Ano siya, e, very lively. Parang walang dull moment pag kasama mo siya and that’s what she continues to prove to us sa Eat Bulaga! ”

Reports claimed that Maine had a crush on Alden long before she joined Eat Bulaga!

Alden said he knew nothing about it on the day he watched the "Juan For All, All For Juan" segment from the Eat Bulaga! studio.

“I was just told by Eat Bulaga! staff, ‘Alden, sama ka sa amin sa Juan For All. Nood ka lang.’

"And then that single moment, dun na naganap lahat. Tuloy-tuloy na yun.”

Seen below was a screen shot of their blindfold meeting on the September 12, 2015 live telecast of Eat Bulaga! :

OCTOBER 24, 2015. Thousands of AlDub fans filled the 55,000-seater Philippine Arena in Bocaue, Bulacan, for their Tamang Panahon benefit concert on October 24, 2015.

It showcased the historical meeting of Alden and Yaya Dub after months of communicating via split screen and overcoming outrageous obstacles to their meeting.

With Lola Nidora’s blessing, the two finally got the chance to dance, perform a duet, and speak to each other.

The Tamang Panahon concert also made record-breaking history.

The Guinness World Record hailed #AlDubEBTamangPanahon as the most retweeted hashtag in 24 hours, with “40,706,392 uses from 24 October 2015 - 25 October 2015.”

NOVEMBER 2015. Before the Tamang Panahon concert, YES! Magazine did a cover story of AlDub. It came out in November, after the concert.

Here, Maine admitted that the possibility of a real-life romance with Alden had crossed her mind.

“Hindi ko na po ide-deny. Kinikilig ako minsan,” Maine revealed, smiling.

She also wondered whether their love team would last, “Iniisip ko rin po, tatagal din kaya ‘to? Iyong AlDub, ‘yong Yaya Dub…" she told YES! .

"Hindi mo din masabi kung ano na’ng mangyayari, kung magiging present pa rin ba ang kilig factor and ‘yong chemistry after naming mag-usap…

"Baka kasi hanggang split screen lang ‘yong kilig, e… Pero huwag naman sana.”

Alden, for his part, said he was grateful for the opportunity to inspire people through the values that he and Maine impart to "Kalyeserye" viewers.

He told YES! , “Alam mo, this phenomenon is really worth appreciating. Us, Maine and I, I’m sure, even though I haven’t really talked to her, I’m sure she’s feeling the same feeling.

“The moment we started, from day one, binago ng mga tao ‘yong buhay namin, in an instant. Kaya we owe this to them, and of course to the Lord. He is the ultimate hand who made this possible.”

Seen below was a screen shot of Alden and Maine's newspaper dance on Eat Bulaga! 's November 14, 2015 live telecast:

DECEMBER 9, 2015. At the height of AlDub’s phenomenal popularity, Alden and Maine were both cast in the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) entry My Bebe Love , starring Vic Sotto and Ai-Ai delas Alas.

It was during My Bebe Love ’s grand presscon, dated December 9, 2015, when Maine described Alden as a “very gentleman person.”

Maine also told PEP.ph, “First impression ko kasi sa kanya is parang tahimik, alam mo yun, parang makulit din. Medyo pabebe rin!

“Nung nagkakilala na kami, nung nag-meet na kami, ganun din naman po.

“So, masasabi ko na na-meet naman yung expectations ko talaga sa kanya.”

Alden, for his part, admitted that he tended to be “protective” towards Maine.

He explained, “Kagaya po nung nasa Enchanted [Kingdom] kami last Saturday, I have this sense of being protective lang in terms of times like that.

“Yun nga po, being a gentleman is also part of protecting the girl. So, I’m just doing the right thing.”

MARCH 5, 2016. Alden and Maine exchanged their very first kiss onscreen when she celebrated her 21st birthday in Eat Bulaga ’s March 5, 2016 episode.

It was Alden who first kissed Maine near her lips at one point in the show.

Then the JoWaPao (Jose, Wally, and Paolo) trio teased Alden and Maine to kiss again.

Maine stipulated that she would be the one to give Alden a kiss on his cheek, but the naughty actor unexpectedly turned his face towards her—and they locked lips.

It was also in the same Eat Bulaga! episode that Maine’s sister Coleen Mendoza expressed her approval of Alden as a potential boyfriend for the Dubsmash Queen.

To which Alden replied, “Yes!”

MARCH 6, 2016. Alden rented a plane going to Boracay to surprise Maine during her birthday vacation.

Earlier, Alden had turned down Maine's invitation to join the trip because of his work engagements.

And yet there he was, standing outside Maine’s hotel room in Discovery Shores Boracay at around 9 a.m. on March 6, 2016, a Sunday.

And there they were, having the time of their lives along with Maine’s friends as they went scuba diving, parasailing, jet-skiing, and beach-hopping all day long.

In her personal blog, Maine revealed how Alden made her feel secure when she got “panicky” while riding with him on a jet ski.

“I had this feeling that we might get thrown off into the water, but at that moment, it didn't matter anymore.

“I was having a really fun time and for as long as I am with him, getting thrown off would be alright.

“I know for a fact na hindi niya ako pababayaan—kahit anong mangyari.”

APRIL 1, 2016. Speculations about the real score between Alden and Maine grew when they were spotted on a late lunch date at Sofitel’s Spiral restaurant right after their stint on GMA Network’s Sunday variety show Sunday PinaSaya (SPS).

According to PEP.ph’s report, the photos that circulated online showed the two seemingly on a date, unaccompanied by their usual companions or friends.

A snapshot of Alden and Maine leaving the restaurant and another as they were walking down the stairs of the hotel clearly showed there were just the two of them.

In a follow-up report of PEP.ph dated July 27, 2016, Alden confirmed that he and Maine frequented the posh restaurant because they considered it their “safe zone” for their private conversations.

“Dun ko po siya laging dinadala,” Alden admitted.

In the TV special Imagine You & Me: The Journey , director Mike Tuviera recalled how Alden took special care of Maine when she got sick while they were filming in Italy.

Alden kept her company, fed her—even cleaned her hotel room—in all the time was taking a bed rest.

Direk Mike related, “Kasi we gave her medicine and wala siyang ganang kumain. So, dinalhan siya ni Alden ng soup... Alden had to feed her kasi she wasn't feeling well at all.

“'Tapos isa lang yung request niya, 'Kuwentuhan mo lang ako, Alden.'

"Sabi ni Alden, 'Ng ano? Magkasama tayo araw-araw. Lahat ng maikukuwento ko alam mo na.'

"'Di bale, basta kuwentuhan mo lang ako.' And that made her feel better.”

In the same TV special, Alden noted that he really enjoyed his work-and-play time with Maine in Italy.

“Nakakalabas kami... Normal na tao. Nakakapag-usap kami sa labas literally,” said Alden who was sitting beside Maine during the interview.

“Kasi parang—I am not saying na dito mahirap—but siyempre since marami nakaka-recognize, so maliit na maliit yung space for privacy dito.”

When asked to describe their closeness, Alden replied, “Malalim talaga."

It was Gardo Versoza—who played Maine’s father in Destined To Be Yours —who grilled the Dubsmash Queen about her relationship status with Alden.

Gardo told PEP.ph he could sense Maine’s special feelings for Alden with the way she shyly smiled whenever they talked about the Pambansang Bae.

JUNE TO JULY 2017. The strength of Alden and Maine’s love team was put to the test in every social-media controversies they were dragged into.

In June 2017, Maine reprimanded her Twitter followers for getting into word war over certain issues.

She tweeted, “I know how much you love us and how hard you try to protect us but enough with the foul words, guys. Hindi na tama.”

Maine did not name a specific issue or personality that her Twitter followers had been throwing so much hate on.

It prompted some netizens to ask if her tweet was in defense of Sef Cadoyana or something else entirely.

At the time, Sef had an interview where he quashed rumors romantically linking him to Maine.

Responding to a netizen’s query, Maine firmly reiterated, “Dapat ba lagi may pinagtatanggol? Hindi ba pwedeng sabihin lang kung ano yung tama?”

IMAGE Instagram @sefcadayona / Reielle Deslate

Then on July 17, Maine clarified that nothing’s going on between her and Sef.

“Oo nga, masyado niyo kaming minamalisyahan ni Sef. Ano bang problema niyo?” she had said in a live stream via Periscope, posted by Eat Bulaga! assistant director Pat Plaza.

On the other hand, Alden was warding off persistent rumors romantically linking him to Eat Bulaga! Dabarkads Patricia Tumulak.

But Patricia herself slammed it as a baseless rumor, adding that she has a foreigner boyfriend.

Amid such intrigues, Alden told PEP.ph that he remained unfazed by rumors linking Maine to another Kapuso actor.

Maine and some of her non-showbiz friends just came out of Door 7 of the venue when some concertgoers approached the Dubsmash Queen for photo-ops.

Juancho stayed near Maine's group until they exited the venue.

Amid speculations that followed the incident, Juancho clarified that he has maintained a close friendship with the Dubsmash Queen and Sheena Halili.

The three of them were part of Team Pelangi, which refers to the hometown of Maine's character in the now-defunct Kapuso prime time series Destined To Be Yours .

During GMA-7's Regional Tour in Dagupan last April 30, Juancho told PEP.ph: "Bahala na kung ano ang isipin ng mga tao. Pero ako kasi, me and Maine and Sheena, yung friendship namin talagang private lang."

APRIL 26, 2018. To end questions about Maine's showbiz career, her talent manager Rams David assured that the Dubsmash Queen has remained committed to being a Dabarkads.

Aside from her regular stint on Eat Bulaga 's Sugod Bahay, Maine also appears with Alden in the noontime show's "Pamilya Nunal" segment.

But Rams also revealed that Maine has "begged off" from doing a teleserye.

In an exclusive interview on PEP.ph, Rams said, "Siguro if it’s the right project, lalo na ang drama, hindi muna sa drama. Parang hirap pa siya.”

As for the next AlDub movie, Rams said the creative/production team in charge has been looking for the "best script" that would fit Maine and Alden.
