Phil denies dating KC del Rosario

"I do not know any KC (del Rosario) or may have been introduced (to her) before. I've already talked to Angel (Locsin, who he is exclusively dating) about the rumors and we both know there's no truth to it. I have spent the past few days of my free time with her before I leave for Germany tonight. Thanks for giving me the chance to explain."

Thus spoke Phil Younghusband in a statement sent to "The Buzz" yesterday, June 12.

When the news on Phil dating KC was first revealed, "Showbiz News Ngayon (SNN)" tried getting the Azkals player's opinion about it. "No, I don't know who KC is," Phil said as he quickly left. This made people think there might be some truth to the speculations. Photos of Phil and KC together online led to talks that the two are indeed dating.

James was quick to defend his brother. But, unlike Phil's statement where he denied knowing KC, James told "TV Patrol" in an interview last week that Phil has met her once. "KC goes to the same school as my girlfriend. Just to clarify, Phil has met KC once but Angel is only in Phil's eyes, to be honest," James said.

Phil also answered a fan asking about KC on Twitter. The fan asked Phil to answer the issue so that the media won't feast on the story. "I'm actually not close to anyone named KC and I don't know where that story came from," Phil tweeted.

KC is Mateo Guidicelli's former girlfriend.

She finally broke her silence with a statement sent to 'The Buzz.' "I'm still a bit confused on how this issue set off, but we aren't dating. I've met him once and that is all. He seems like a nice guy, but I don't know much about him," KC said.

Phil also said in an interview with "TV Patrol" during the Azkals send-off party that Angel knows about the issue. "There's no truth to the story. Angel knows the truth. There are only three girls in my heart, my mom, my sister and Angel," Phil said.
