In turn, Gelo shared that yellow, white, and gold perfectly capture Alexa’s personality.</p><p>Before venturing into acting, Gelo was first known as a member of the P-Pop boy group BGYO. He was then asked which makes him sweat more: BGYO practices or memorizing lines. Without hesitation, he answered, “Mas pinagpapawisan po akong mag-aral ng lines. Pero we’re gonna work on that,” he said confidently.</p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/2026/8/9/look-alexa-and-gelo-s-kilig-bts-moments-from-the-chambermaid-s-daughter-season-2-0104" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>LOOK: Alexa and Gelo’s kilig BTS moments from “The Chambermaid’s Daughter” Season 2</strong></a></div><p>Prompted to share his current mood in Korean, Gelo quipped, “Saranghae,” radiating positive and loving energy. On the topic of who’s most likely to ruin a serious romantic take with a burst of laughter, he quickly pointed to Alexa. “Sobrang weakness ko ‘yung tumawa. ‘Pag pinatawa mo ako, tatawa talaga ako,” Alexa admitted.</p><p>When asked about her wittiest adlib during taping, Alexa said it was tough to choose since most of her dialogue in the series was improvised. “Siguro sa Season 2, sabi ko, ‘Guard, guard! Hulihin n’yo, may magnanakaw [ng kiss]!’” she recalled, bringing up the playful moment that had everyone on set laughing.</p><p>Looking back on her experience stepping into Hannah’s shoes, Alexa shared that the character allowed her to simply live in the moment and enjoy the process of acting in “The Chambermaid’s Daughter.” “She’s such a go-getter, she’s very open, she’s a free spirit. It’s something I had to channel as well,” she said, noting that she wanted her portrayal of Hannah to stay true to the character as written in the script.</p><p>Talking about the milestone of “The Chambermaid’s Daughter” Season 1, Alexa revealed that they never expected the series to top iWant’s list of most-watched shows, especially since the project marked her first onscreen pairing with Gelo. “Nagulat talaga ako sa reception ng tao sa amin. Even [with] the</p><p>feedback of our bosses and everyone, they have given me cute and good feedback,” she said.</p><p>After the fun exchange, it was time to unveil Alexa and Gelo’s sketches of Hannah and Daniel. Their drawings turned out to be almost identical, with the pair looking vibrant in their signature colors of yellow and blue. Even the finer details matched—with Daniel pulling off the look of a true “Oppa” and Hannah sporting her charming bangs. The little heart between them was the perfect finishing touch.</p><p>All episodes of <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/2026/8/3/alexa-and-gelo-s-the-chambermaid-s-daughter-season-2-tops-iwant-s-most-watched-charts-in-ph-1625" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>“The Chambermaid’s Daughter” Season 2</strong></a> are now streaming exclusively on iWant.
