The two young stars have been spotted together frequently, fueling speculation that they are more than just friends.
Let’s take a look at all the clues that seem to confirm their budding romance!
Kobe Leaves a Flirty Comment on Kyline’s Instagram
The dating rumors reached a fever pitch when Kobe left a very telling comment on one of Kyline’s recent Instagram posts.
The actress shared a fierce photo of herself rocking a stylish black Jacquemus mini-dress. Kobe couldn’t seem to contain his admiration, commenting with a single heart eyes emoji 😍.
For many fans, this public display of affection was all the confirmation needed that something is definitely going on between the two.
Leaving flirty emojis is basically the modern day equivalent of professing your love from the rooftops!
Kobe Posts a Photo of Kyline on His Own Instagram
As if the IG comment wasn’t enough, Kobe took things a step further by sharing a photo of Kyline on his own Instagram page.
He posted the same stunning pic of her in the black dress, but this time accompanied it with a red heart ❤️. If that’s not a sign that he’s smitten, we don’t know what is!
Kobe has never been one to post about girls on his social media before. So the fact that he’s openly gushing about Kyline says a lot about how serious he is about her.
These two are clearly more than casual acquaintances.
The Pair Have Been Spotted Out Together Frequently
Before things heated up on Instagram, Kobe and Kyline had already been spending a lot of quality time together.
Back in June 2022, dating rumors first started when they were seen vacationing in Bali, Indonesia.
More recently, they arrived together at the Siargao airport on June 13, 2023. They tried to be low-key, but eagle-eyed fans quickly spotted them and spread the news online. Both Kobe and Kyline shared photos enjoying the island’s beaches and pools on their IG stories as well.
Siargao is a popular romantic getaway in the Philippines. The fact that Kobe and Kyline took a trip there, just the two of them, is a major hint that they’re coupled up.
Traveling together is a big step!
Kyline Gets Linked to Darren Espanto
Interestingly, Kyline found herself in another dating rumor recently after appearing on the GMA show “It’s Showtime” with singer Darren Espanto.
The show’s hosts teased the pair, with Vice Ganda jokingly suggesting they should sing “We Are Family” together.
However, Kyline seemed to brush off the remark. It appears her heart is set on Kobe, not Darren. She and Kobe have a much longer history together that can’t be overshadowed by a little TV banter.
The Timing Adds Up
So why is the Kobe-Kyline romance making news now? The timing of it all is quite intriguing.In March 2023, Kobe split from his previous girlfriend Erika Poturnak, the daughter of actress Ina Raymundo.
Meanwhile, Kyline has recently been hinting at protecting her peace and staying away from people who don’t have her best interests at heart.
It seems both Kobe and Kyline are ready to move on from past relationships and give love another chance – with each other.
Fans believe it’s not a coincidence that they started spending more time together right after their respective breakups.
What’s Next for the New Couple?
Now that Kobe and Kyline have soft launched their relationship on social media, many are wondering what’s next for the new couple.
Will they start attending events and doing interviews together? Will Kyline show up to Kobe’s basketball games wearing his jersey?
The possibilities are endless!
One thing is for sure – these two deserve all the happiness in the world. They’ve both been through ups and downs in their careers and personal lives.
Kyline has spoken about having to “toughen up” in the harsh world of show business. Kobe has dealt with critics doubting his basketball abilities.
Through it all, Kobe has had the unwavering support of his family, especially his mom Jackie Forster. And Kyline continues to book major projects like her role as honorary ambassador of the Korea Tourism Organization.
Here’s hoping their new relationship can be a source of strength, bringing out the best in each other.
Fans are definitely rooting for them and can’t wait to see this love story unfold!
