The conversation turned intriguing when Joshua was asked about Ivana’s qualities as a leading lady in their current series, “Love Is Never Gone.”

Instead of focusing solely on her acting, he highlighted her overwhelming generosity, specifically mentioning her habit of ensuring everyone is satisfied.

"She’s very generous," Joshua remarked, adding with a hint of a tease, "Hindi lang sa acting kundi sa lahat. Ang hilig niyang magpakain. Ang dami niya laging pakulo."

This habit of "feeding" the cast and crew, coupled with Ivana's history of public admiration for Joshua, has led to playful speculation among fans.

The actor even shared instances where he would receive unexpected items, such as jogger pants and long-sleeved shirts, which left him wondering about the nature of these gestures.

"Minsan, may mag-aabot na lang sa akin. Sabi ko, ‘Ano ‘to?’ May bigay siya sa akin... ‘Nanliligaw ba ‘to?’" he quipped, as reported by Balita https://balita.mb.com.ph/2026/05/11/ivana-mahilig-magpakain-sey-ni-joshua/.

While the "feeding" and gifts suggest a deep level of care, the context remains professional. The two have recently made headlines for their intense scenes in their Morocco-set drama, which premiered at number one on Prime Video on May 8.

Their undeniable spark has been a major draw for the series, where they play Teo and Yana—lovers caught in a dangerous web of betrayal and crime.

Despite the lighthearted teasing about Ivana’s "courtship" gestures, Joshua remains committed to his real-life relationship with Emilienne Vigier.

However, the actor’s comments have certainly succeeded in making the public curious about the dynamic between the two icons.

Whether these acts of service are purely platonic or a sign of deeper affection, the rapport between them continues to be one of the hottest topics in the industry this season.

Joshua Garcia began his journey as a reality star on "Pinoy Big Brother" before ascending to become a top-tier leading man in the Philippines. While he first gained fame for his sensitive acting in romance, he has since expanded his repertoire to include complex and high-stakes roles. Currently, he is a celebrated actor known for pushing boundaries through intense action and mature narratives.

Recently, Joshua shared his conviction that total honesty is essential in a relationship, arguing that genuine affection leaves no room for hidden agendas. The actor noted that selectively choosing when to speak is a strategy for harmony, viewing silence as a protective measure rather than an act of dishonesty. He described himself as remarkably tolerant of emotional vents, preferring to offer empathy and understanding when a partner is drained. While acknowledging his poor memory for specific calendar events, the star maintained that forgetting a date does not reflect a lack of love or respect.
