Julia Montes Gets Real About Coco Martin’s Early Moves in Their Love Story
JULIA MONTES – Actress Julia Montes finally shared the story of how Coco Martin courted her, revealing a mix of nerves and sweet gestures.
Julia Montes recently opened up about her early experiences with actor Coco Martin’s courtship, sharing amusing and heartfelt details in an interview with veteran journalist Karen Davila on YouTube. The conversation gave fans a deeper look into the beginning of one of showbiz’s most talked-about love stories.
Julia revealed that her initial reaction to Coco’s romantic gestures wasn’t exactly what one might expect. “Hindi agad-agad. Nung nililigawan niya ako, nagpa-panic ako. So lagi ko siyang bina-bluff hanggang sa na-hurt ko siya,” she candidly admitted.

Julia Montes said she often bluffed Coco during that period, unintentionally hurting his feelings and causing a delay in the development of their romance.
The actress shared with Karen Davila that she panicked when Coco Martin first showed interest in her, which caused their early romance to falter. Despite the rocky start, fate gave them a second chance. Their relationship developed later when they worked together again on another project.
The renewed collaboration turned out to be the spark that reignited their connection. “Nung nag-meet kami ulit, nag-work kami ulit, dun na nag-develop ulit,” Julia recalled, highlighting how their romance naturally grew over time.
As things progressed, Julia got to know Coco beyond his public persona. The actress described Coco as sweet and thoughtful, even surprising her with a pet dog after she complimented other dogs they saw. The sweet gesture was just one of the many ways Coco expressed his affection.

Julia shared more about Coco’s loving nature, describing him as a caring and consistent partner. She appreciated the way he listens and responds to even the smallest things she says, showing that his love is grounded in attentiveness and sincerity.
Today, Julia and Coco remain one of the most admired and private couples in Philippine showbiz. Their love story, filled with unexpected twists and genuine affection, continues to inspire fans who believe in love that grows at the right time.
