Andrea Brillantes and Sam Fernandez Hold Hands While Walking
ANDREA BRILLANTES and SAM FERNANDEZ – The two have sparked dating rumors after being seen holding hands while walking.
Their photos and videos quickly went viral, with netizens speculating about their relationship status. Despite the buzz, neither Andrea nor Sam has confirmed anything. Some online users jokingly pointed out that Andrea had previously expressed disinterest in dating basketball players, questioning why she is once again linked to one.
The two were last seen together on Valentine’s Day at a restaurant. Now, new clips of them walking hand in hand have surfaced on TikTok. Andrea has remained silent about whether Sam holds a special place in her life.
Netizens shared mixed reactions to the circulating photos and videos. Some advised Andrea to be cautious in her relationships, while others expressed hope that this could be her long-term romance. Many encouraged the couple to keep things private to avoid unnecessary judgment and negativity. Others wished Andrea happiness, emphasizing that she deserves someone who will genuinely care for her.
Andrea Brillantes and Sam Fernandez began being linked after several sightings together. On February 20, 2025, a video of Andrea on what appeared to be a Valentine’s Day date resurfaced. She was seen in a red polka-dot mini dress, speaking with a restaurant staff member, while a man in a white long-sleeve polo stood behind her, holding a bouquet of pink roses. Netizens identified him as Samuel “Sam” Fernandez, a Filipino-Jordanian varsity player from San Beda University. Adding to the speculation, Andrea had posted a TikTok video on February 14 featuring the same pink roses.
This wasn’t their first public sighting. In 2024, a Reddit user claimed that Andrea attended one of Sam’s basketball training sessions. In December of the same year, a TikTok video showed them walking together in a mall.
