Photos of the two in Bohol circulated online last year.“That was a group trip actually. I had my friend there and he had friends. There was a point in time we were getting together I guess. But we realized we are better off as friends,” she revealed. “It is so hard to date in Manila and in the showbiz industry! I am not looking for anyone at the moment.” Russell also denied being a third party in the relationship between Alexa Miro and Sandro Marcos. Miro claimed in a TikTok livestream in 2025 she had a five-year relationship with Marcos and alleged that Russell was a factor in their split.“That never happened. It is not true. I met him before but in circles. We have mutual friends. But the reason she broke up was ridiculous. I have not seem the guy in years. Nothing more than friends,” Russell argued. “What she said was completely untrue. What she spoke of was an encounter that happened three years ago. But she failed to mention the timeline, which I thought was a super slap in the face. You say you came out if a relationship of five years  but the scenario I saw you was in 2023? How does that even make sense,” she added.Russell shared she was “shocked” and disappointed at the allegation.“I think his ex was on a live stream — sounded lasing maybe. Saying things. I was shocked and I felt sad — you were not a girl’s girl. You encouraged tearing down another woman when the facts were not right. I do not know her apart from that situation,” she reasoned.Russell is kept busy with acting projects including the Viva Movie Box series “Fake Socialite.” Also part of the cast are Cindy Miranda and Priscilla Meirelles.
