Harry Roque is no longer President Rodrigo Duterte’s spokesperson. He has been replaced by Cabinet Secretary Karlo Nograles, who is head of the Task Force on Zero Hunger.
Nograles, likewise, was spokesperson of the InterAgency Task Force for the Management of Infectious Diseases (IATF-E D).

Rodjun Cruz has somehow confirmed the report that his younger brother, Rayver Cruz and girlfriend, Janine Gutierrez, have called it quits.
As for the reason why the two separated, Rodjun was circumspect.
“Let me just reveal na ako, I’ve been married to former fellow Kapuso, Diane (Medina), for three years now. May anak na kami,” Rodjun said.
Rodjun has signed up anew with a contract for GMA 7. His first major project for GMA is as leading man to Jo Berry in the upcoming series, “Little Princess,” a romance comedy.
Jo has dwarfism. “But except for her height, everything is normal-sized with her. We all like her,” Rodjun said.

Shaina Magdayao and Piolo Pascual look sweet in their photos together.
But there’s actually nothing going on between them, except that they really like each other.
“When we talk,” Shaina added. “Wala akong makitang asset niya that I would prefer in a boyfriend. Ganuon din yata siya sa akin.
“Ganun pa man, mahirap pakawalan ang isang kaibigan katulad ni Piolo. He is a perfect friend. Likewise, he tells me I am a perfect friend to him, too.”
When report went around that she was pregnant with Piolo’s baby, neither of them took it seriously, as there really was no truth to it.
Now 32 years old, Shaina says she has no boyfriend. Piolo, who is 44, is not involved in a serious relationship either. Shaira’s last boyfriend was John Lloyd many years ago. Piolo’s breakup with KC Concepcion was also years ago. Wonder who between them will have another relationship first.

And he will do just that.
He is, however, open to playing kontravida to new Kapuso actor John Lloyd Cruz.
John Lloyd, as is common knowledge, signed up with GMA just recently. He can now work with Dennis, Jennylyn, among others.
John Lloyd is set to start work on his first project with GMA 7, a sitcom to be directed by Bobot Mortiz.
It was Direk Bobot, if you recall, who was at the helm of John Lloyd’s sitcom, “Home Sweetie Home,” with Toni Gonzaga. That’s where he and Ellen Adarna met and fell in love.
Of course, we know that they had a baby and separated after. Now, Ellen is Mrs. Derek Ramsay.
John Lloyd, we heard, is the creative director and co-producer of his own sitcom.

How much is John Lloyd worth now?
Someone whispered that he invested his money well with the help of his younger brothers.
“Kaya masuwerte ang mapapangasawa niya, as he is one of the most moneyed in the business,” our source tells us. “Hindi rin siya kuripot. Kung babae ka, he would be the ideal person to bring home to mama or papa.”
