Bea Alonzo has long been one of local showbiz's most compelling figures—not just for her award-winning performances, but for the way she's navigated love, heartbreak, and reinvention in the public eye.
In July 2019, conversations around Bea's nearly three-year relationship with Gerald Anderson reached a peak online after a series of Instagram posts. But even before that, she had been in a long-term relationship with fellow actor Zanjoe Marudo—one she's spoken about with respect and honesty in past interviews..
In 2023, Bea got engaged to Dominic Roque after two years of dating. However, by early 2024, the two confirmed that they had ended their engagement amicably, asking for kindness and privacy as they moved forward separately.
These days, Bea is reportedly being linked to Vincent Co, the son of Puregold founders Lucio and Susan Co. While neither Bea nor Vincent has confirmed the nature of their relationship, their recent appearances together have stirred buzz online.
Through it all, Bea has continued to thrive—balancing acting, business ventures, and personal growth. Here's a look back at the relationships that have been part of her journey.
Bea Alonzo's Dating History
Mico Palanca
They first started getting to know each other in 2002, when Bea was a teenager and Mico Palanca was in his early 20s. Mico courted her for years before their eventual breakup in 2008.
During an interview with YES! magazine in July 2013, Bea shared: "Hindi talaga kami magkaintindihan. He was so much older than I was, so iba yung priorities niya. Iba siya magtrato. Ayoko naman kasing magsalita nang masama tungkol sa kanya, but it wasn't a good relationship."
After Miko Palanca's untimely passing in December 2019, Bea sent flowers to his wake and even visited his family.
Jake Cuenca
In August 2008, Bea revealed that she was dating Jake! At that time, Jake had just gotten out of a serious relationship. They weren't "exclusive," and according to Jake, the two of them went out on several dates but they eventually decided to become just friends. He said it was a mutual decision so that they could focus on their respective careers.
Zanjoe Marudo
Zanjoe and Bea were together for more than five years! Bea first confirmed that she was in a relationship with Zanjoe back in October 2011. In July 2013, Bea surprised Zajoe during his birthday celebration on the TV show Banana Split and they even sang "A Thousand Years" together.
But just like any couple, they had their problems. An emotional Zanjoe announced their breakup on January 20, 2016, during his guesting on Tonight With Boy Abunda. "Wala naman madaling way, so kailangan talagang pagdaanan," Zanjoe replied when asked on how he was coping with the breakup. Bea admitted that the problems in their relationship stemmed from a lack of time for each other.
Gerald Anderson
Bea and Gerald had a three-month "whirlwind" romance back in 2010 before reuniting for the film How To Be Yours in 2016. They were soon spotted on different dates and out-of-the -country trips and in October 2018, Bea even said that she hoped to marry Gerald someday! She also threw her boyfriend a surprise birthday party in March 2019.
Breakup rumors started to fuel on July 21, 2019, when Bea shared some very *telling* Instagram posts referring to being hurt multiple times by someone and that doing the same mistake twice was "ENOUGH" for her already. People on the internet were quick to deduce that she was talking about Gerald and his Between Maybes co-star, Julia Barretto.
Bea later talked to the press, saying: "Honestly, to my understanding, we did not break up. He just started not talking to me." Gerald also broke his silence and stated that there was no third party involved in their separation.
Dominic Roque
Fans first shipped Bea with Kapamilya actor Dominic Roque in 2019, when he posted a throwback Tokyo photo with the caption: "tila ako'y nabighani..." By August 2021, Bea confirmed they were dating, saying she simply wanted to keep things more private this time.
On July 18, 2023, Dominic proposed during a shoot in Las Casas—a moment Bea called the "real thing" compared to the many proposal scenes she'd filmed before. "In front of the people we love… we decided on forever," she wrote in her engagement post.
But in February 2024, Boy Abunda broke the news of their split on-air, and days later, the two released a joint statement confirming they had ended their engagement on good terms. They asked for privacy and addressed the unauthorized reports about their breakup.
Amid the fallout, rumors swirled about Dominic being a "benefactor to a politician" and having prenup issues with Bea—claims he denied through a legal statement.
Despite the public breakup, both have moved on gracefully. Bea focused on her teleserye Widow's War and her travel brand Bash Manila, while Dom continued work with his production company and is now dating actress Sue Ramirez.
