Superstar Kathryn Bernardo has reportedly gifted her rumored beau, Pambansang Bae Alden Richards, a jaw-dropping 6-million-peso promise ring—and the details are finally spilling out like a teleserye plot twist!

According to an exclusive scoop from a “reliable source” close to the couple, Kathryn, the reigning Box Office Queen, pulled out all the stops to show Alden just how serious she is about their blossoming relationship. The ring, custom-designed by a top-tier jeweler in Makati, is said to feature a rare 2-carat emerald-cut diamond surrounded by smaller stones that spell out a secret message only the two of them understand. “It’s not just a ring—it’s a statement,” the source teased. “Kathryn wanted something that screams forever pero subtle enough for Alden’s low-key vibe.”

The buzz started when Alden was spotted wearing a sleek, shiny band on his right hand during a recent guesting on a noontime show. Eagle-eyed fans zoomed in on the footage, and the speculation went wild. “Is that THE ring?!” one fan tweeted, alongside a blurry screenshot circled in red. Another wrote, “Kathryn giving Alden a 6M promise ring? Grabe, love na love talaga!” The hashtag #KathDenPromiseRing quickly trended nationwide, racking up over 300,000 mentions in just 24 hours.

Kathryn and Alden, affectionately dubbed “KathDen” by their legion of supporters, have been the subject of romance rumors since they starred together in the 2023 blockbuster Unbreakable Hearts. Their chemistry was undeniable—onscreen kisses that melted hearts and offscreen banter that fueled late-night kilig marathons. While both have remained coy about their status, Kathryn’s alleged grand gesture has fans convinced that wedding bells might not be far off.

The insider spilled more tea, revealing that Kathryn spent months planning the surprise. “She consulted with Alden’s sister to make sure it matched his style—simple pero may dating,” they said. The ring was reportedly presented to Alden during a private dinner at a swanky Tagaytay resto last month, complete with a violinist and a view of Taal Volcano. “Alden was speechless. Halos matunaw siya sa kilig,” the source added with a laugh.

Of course, not everyone’s buying the fairy tale just yet. Critics on X pointed out that 6 million pesos is a hefty price tag for a “promise ring” and not an engagement ring. “Ano ‘to, prelude to a proposal or flex lang?” one skeptic posted. Others speculated it might be a publicity stunt for their upcoming reunion movie. But KathDen stans are unfazed, flooding comment sections with heart emojis and “sana all” memes.

Neither Kathryn nor Alden has confirmed the rumors, but their silence only adds fuel to the fire. For now, the 6-million-peso promise ring remains the hottest topic in showbiz—proof that when it comes to love (and luxury), Kathryn Bernardo knows how to make a grand entrance. Watch out, Philippines—this love story is just getting started!
