Melissa Ricks is dating again

A year after her tumultuous break-up with Jake Cuenca, Melissa Ricks now happily admits she is in a new relationship with former Pinoy Big Brother housemate, Paul Jake Castillo.
She revealed the matter in a recent interview with PEP.

Yes, we’re dating!” the 22-year-old confirmed. She shared she is glad to have found new love in the arms of Castillo, whom she describes as caring and very understanding. “It’s about time that I also become happy because everything’s back to normal,” she said. The actress also related how their three-month-old love story began. “ Actually, I've known him for so long. It’s just recently that we got really close. And then it happened."

Asked why she is more vocal now about her relationship with Castillo compared to the time when she was still with Cuenca, Melissa admitted it was the latter who barred her from letting the world know about their romance. “ He didn’t want to [Cuenca]. But Paul Jake is okay with the idea of revealing our relationship. I’m also fine with it since it’s my personal life. They’ll find out anyways," she said.

Melissa believes her relationship now with Castillo is much better than what she’s had with CuencaEverything seemed very complicated before. There were a lot of things that shouldn’t be said and seen. But now with Paul Jake, it’s better. Peaceful.” she related.

She cited how Castillo makes her happy. “He’s so understanding. If I don’t have any schedules for the day, he just goes to my house. We make time for each other.


More, she is quite happy that her family approves of Castillo as her boyfriend. But she insisted that her parents didn’t have anything to do with the end of her almost two-year relationship with Cuenca. “My family had nothing to do with it. It was fine, they accepted him. Though they were a little cautious, they surely weren’t the reason of our break up..

Melissa further admitted that she already met Castillo’s family. “They’re really nice. Very kind and hospitable,” she said. Asked pointblank if she thinks Castillo is a much better boyfriend than Cuenca, she gave a straightforward response: "Much better, of course.”
