There is talk now that actress Julia Montes, 24, has given birth, and it happened right here in the Philippines.

Showbiz insiders also have a strong suspicion that the father of the former Star Magic star’s child is her secret boyfriend Coco Martin, 37, the so-called King of Primetime on ABS-CBN due to the success of  FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano , in which he stars .

It was 2015 when news first broke that Julia and Coco were in a secret relationship.

But for four years, the two remained silent.

They first teamed up in the Kapamilya teleserye  Walang Hanggan,  which aired for ten months—from January 16, 2012 to October 26, 2012.

Due to the success of their collaboration, it was followed by another project in 2013, the film  A Moment In Time,  which was shot in the Netherlands and other European countries.

In 2014, Coco and Julia reunited in the ABS-CBN primetime series  Ikaw Lamang.

They were joined by Kim Chiu, KC Concepcion, and Jake Cuenca. The teleserye lasted eight months on the air and even had a Book Two.

In 2015, the two appeared together in the “Yamishita’s Treasure” episode of  Wansapantaym .

After this, they were able to complete the project.

But according to those who know them, Julia and Coco have become close and have a relationship that is more than just friendship.

JULIA LEAVES STAR MAGIC

In October 2016, Cornerstone Entertainment, Inc. announced that they would be managing Julia’s showbiz career.

There was talk back then that Coco was the one who encouraged Julia to leave Star Magic, the talent arm of ABS-CBN, so that they could admit their relationship.

At that time, the two were under Star Magic, although now Coco is under the care of Biboy Arboleda.

However, no confession took place between the two.

In December 2017, news broke that Julia and Coco had separated.
