It's time to bid a few of your favorite love teams goodbye, because GMA-7 is doing major changes when it comes to their on-screen pairs.

After confirming his relationship with Gumapang Ka Sa Lusak co-star Jennylyn Mercado, Dennis Trillo was cast as one corner of a new love triangle involving Cosmo Man On Fire Dingdong Dantes and his real-life lady-love, Cosmo cover girl Marian Rivera, in an upcoming remake of the Korean series Endless Love.
Mark Herras, Ysa Asistio's rumored boyfriend and co-star in Diva; Cosmo Centerfold JC Tiuseco, Maxene Magalona's rumored boyfriend and partner in Sana Ngayong Pasko; and Cosmo Centerfold Daniel Matsunaga, last seen in The Last Prince as Cosmo Man on Fire Aljur Abrenica's rival for Kris Bernal's affection, will all be handed over to Cosmo cover girl Heart Evangelista (lucky woman!) in the new early primetime drama Habang Kapiling Ka.
Rumor has it that even Aljur Abrenica will be plucked from his love team with Kris once The Last Prince ends, as he is being eyed as the new partner of Rhian Ramos in another prospective soap, Odessa.
Richard Gutierrez, meanwhile, won't be needing a leading lady for his new show Survivor Celebrity Edition when he takes over hosting duties from Paolo Bediones. That means Lovi Poe, Jewel Mische, and Rhian Ramos will have to wait to fight it out for Captain Barbell's attention.
Only two love teams are safe at this point: Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera, who will be reunited in Endless Love, and Cosmo cover girl Carla Abellana and Cosmo Man on Fire Geoff Eigenmann, who will be together for the third time in Basahang Ginto.
Jake Vargas, who always figured in a love triangle with Joshua Dionisio and Barbie Forteza in previous soaps like Stairway to Heaven and First Time, will no longer be third wheel once Joshua and Barbie's next project, Pilyang Kerubin, begins. Jake will be given his own partner in a different soap.

Tell us what you think of these love team shuffling when you comment! Which actor and actress now do you think would make a great new pair?

18. GMA 7 always features the same talents on their shows kaya nakakasawa na so they are trying to reshuffle them.

14. Sana TJ Trinidad-Carla Abellana na lang! Tj is good in acting, madadala niya si Carla. With Jake Vargas naman bakit pinakita sa tv commercial Pilyang Kerubin nasa gitna si Barbie nila Joshua at jake?

8. and if "palengkera" is the right term for it, naku, justified ang description na un for marian in that commercial.di man lang kasi pinag-undergo ng workshops at speech & personality improvement before sinalang.
