“As of now, happy naman ako. I am actually dating someone,” she revealed. Although Jane did not dive into further details, she said that it was a non-showbiz guy.
“Let’s just leave it at that to protect his privacy,” she added. “Basta my heart is happy.”

After expressing her dating status, Jane mentioned her willingness to explore a lesbian movie or a Girl’s Love series in the future alongside Janella if the chance arises. “We’ve talked about it and we’re open about the idea,” she told the press.
“Basta maganda ang story at maayos ang pagkakasulat ng script, sige, go. Trabaho pa rin naman ‘yun and people now are so open-minded about these things,” she explained.
The #JaneNella love team gained popularity after their roles in the 2022 series adaptation of “Darna,” where Jane portrayed the titular character, and Janella played her archnemesis, Valentina. Despite the intended love triangle with Joshua Garcia’s character, police officer Brian Robles, viewers overwhelmingly shipped the two female characters.

Jane also addressed the unexpected turn of events, saying, “Kami naman ni Janella, pareho kaming natutuwa sa suportang ibinibigay ng mga tao sa friendship namin. We don’t mind kung sinasabing bagay kaming love team.”
“We interact with the fans na natutuwa sa amin, kaya siguro minahal din nila ang friendship namin. Siguro, sa mga LGBT, they fantasize us and it’s okay lang,” she continued.
“If maibibigay ba namin ang kaligayahan nila, why not?”
