Yeng Constantino, Ryan Bang discuss past romance

Published Jan 29, 2022 10:45 am

Did you know that singer Yeng Constantino and TV host Ryan Bang share a romantic past?

Actually, they could have been a couple, that is, if Ryan didn't stop courting Yeng.

This and more were revealed during a recent episode of "It's Showtime," where the two stars finally had "closure" after so many years.

It started with Yeng opening up about it commenting on a contestant of "Tawag ng Tanghalan."

She said: “Minsan, kahit hindi mo nga naging jowa, e, basta nagparamdam na sa ‘yo tapos biglang nawala, naku, napakasakit talaga. ‘Di ba, Ryan?”

Vice Ganda then asked Ryan to add to it.

Ryan related: “Unang crush ko kasi si Yeng. 2010, ‘no, Yeng? Nanligaw ako kay Yeng.”

Asked how he was able to move on after she rejected him, Yeng interjected: “Hindi kita binasted! Hindi kita binasted noon.”

“Tumigil na lang siya magpadala ng kape,” she related.

Yeng admitted she was "sad" after Ryan stopped pursuing her.

She maintained that it could have actually blossomed.

“Siyempre ngayon, iba na, may asawa na ako. Pero noong time na ‘yun, kilig na kilig talaga ako sa kaniya,” was how she put it.

Ryan remembered: “Tuwing Thursday yata noon sa ‘PBB’ (Pinoy Big Brother), may taping ka, nagpapadala ako ng kape. Tapos nagsimba pa tayo together tuwing Linggo. Bago ko nakilala si Yeng, hindi ako nagsisimba, e.”

Yeng teasingly asked, “Ano’ng nangyari?”

Ryan replied: “Akala ko, ayaw mo sa akin.”

“Kasi noong panahon na ‘yun, gumigimik kami, kasama ko sila James Reid. Siyempre lumalabas ako tuwing gabi. Inaaya ko siya, ilang beses. Tuwing inaaya ko siya tuwing gabi, hindi siya lumalabas, kaya akala ko ayaw niya sa akin,” he said.

“Tapos, sumasama ka kay Richard Poon, ‘yun pala, prayer meeting iyon sa Tagaytay. Akala ko nag-outing kayo. Akala ko, ayaw mo sa akin.”

Yeng retorted, "Sa explanation niya, naiiintindihan ko ngayon. Noong time na ‘yun, hindi talaga ako puma-party.”

Ryan apologized for ghosting her.

“Yeng, pasensya na. Dapat pala nagpaalam ako, nagtanong ako sa ‘yo,” he said. “Noong nanligaw ako, galing naman talaga sa puso ko ‘yon. Ikaw ‘yung pinaka unang-unang crush ko sa buong buhay ko, ikaw ‘yun.”

On the other hand, some of the hosts were teasing Yeng if Ryan was the inspiration behind her well-loved "Chinito" track.

Note that it lyrics goes: "Mapapansin mo ba / Kaya ang tulad ko / Kahit nasa sulok lang ng iyong mga mata / Mahuli mo kaya ang pagsulyap sa'yo / Kahit hindi naman ako ang iyong kaharap / Oh, chinito / Balang araw ay malalaman mo rin."

"At kung ikaw ay nakatawa / Ako pa ba ay nakikita / Nalilimutan ko ang itsura ko / Kapag kausap na ikaw / Sana naman ako'y pakinggan / At nang ikaw ay malinawan / Dahil nabihag mo ang aking paningin at damdamin / Oh! Chinito... Chinito..."

It can be recalled that during an interview some years ago, Yeng revealed that she didn't write “Chinito.”

She shared it was originally titled "Chinita," written by Jed Dumawal, who was inspired by Shan Cai from "Meteor Garden."
