Ruru Madrid: “Binigyan ko siya ng tsinelas. Hindi ko alam ang
size niya”

RURU MADRID – The Kapuso Primetime Action Hero admitted that he tried courting Kapuso Primetime Princess Barbie Forteza when he was 14 years old.

He revealed this when he was interviewed by Mikee Quintos in an episode of “Lutong Bahay”. According to a report on “24 Oras”, Barbie and Ruru were shipped together by their fans before they had their current love teams.

Ruru is currently in a relationship with actress Bianca Umali, while Barbie is in a relationship with actor Jak Roberto.

The actor said in the “Kitchen-terrogate” segment of “Lutong Bahay” that he tried to pursue Barbie’s heart when he was around 14 to 15 years old by giving her a pair of slippers. According to him, the slippers were from his uncle from abroad and he didn’t know the size of Barbie’s feet at that time.

14 ako [nung] niligawan ko siya. Ang ginawa ko, binigyan ko siya ng tsinelas. Hindi ko alam ang size niya,” he shared. “Kasi naaalala ko nun, yung tito ko galing ng abroad tapos meron siyang inuwing tsinelas. Eh siyempre, dahil medyo mamahalin yung tsinelas. Sabi ko, ‘Ito na lang yung pangreregalo ko pangligaw.’

When Mikee asked Ruru if Barbie accepted his gift to her, the actor said that she accepted it but the slippers were too big for her at that time. And that’s the reason why Ruru got rejected by Barbie.

Barbie Forteza currently stars in “Pulang Araw”, while Ruru Madrid is working on the second season of “Lolong”.

It can be recalled that Ruru revealed in an interview on “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda” aired last September 2023 that he tried “courting” his teacher when he was 5 years old at that time. He also admitted in an interview on “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda” aired last March 2023 that he tried to pursue the hearts of Barbie Forteza, Yassi Pressman, and Lexi Fernandez but he failed.

Meanwhile, Mikee Quintos asked Ruru Madrid in the “Kitchen-terrogate” segment of “Lutong Bahay” to name someone Bianca Umali is jealous of. This time, the actor decided not to answer the question and he chose to eat Matcha-flavored fries instead.
