They were romantically linked once.
Although both denied the matter, it seems that, years after, many are still eager to hear what Janice de Belen has to say of Gerald Anderson.
The actress simply compared the actor to a milkfish.
She told "Magandang Buhay, ""Love ko ang bangus. Favorite ko ang bangus. Kaya lang matinik."
"Matinik kasi parang ang daming isyu," she added.
As to her being rumored to be the cause of Gerald's breakup with Maja Salvador, Janice admitted it has affected their friendship somehow.
"The thing is, ang hirap sa trabaho natin kasi kapag na-tsismis ka na, na-link ka ng ganyan, whether you like it or not, totoo o hindi, it destroys frienship. Hindi naman destroyed ang friendship namin but our friendship has changed," she explained.
She went on to insist that Gerald is merely like a brother to him.
"He is really like a brother to me. Super brother ang tingin ko sa kanya. Brother, barkada, kasi napagkukuwentuhan namin ang kahit ano," she said, going on to add, she feels the same way with Gerald's close friends Enchong Dee and Rayver Cruz.
"Kaya nga 'di ko alam kung bakit naging issue kami," she quipped.
