We've all become familiar with the typical "hard launch" of a new relationship—whether it's on Instagram, Facebook, or whatever platform they're choosing to go public. But what if they went the extra mile and made their debut on the red carpet?
Well, some celebrity couples didn't just think about it—they went all in and made it happen at the ABS-CBN Ball 2025! And honestly? The kilig is still hitting us hard! Below, we're spilling the tea on the couples who made their red carpet entrance an unforgettable hard launch ;)
Celebrity Couples Who Made A Red Carpet Debut At The ABS-CBN Ball 2025
Ashley Ortega and Mavy Legaspi
On top of our short but sweet list of celebrity couples for this story are Ashley Ortega andMavy Legaspi. It was only this 2025 that Ashley and Mavy gradually opened up about their relationship. It's still pretty fresh, to say the least. Just two months ago, Ashley publicly admitted to being in a happy romance with Mavy.
"I thought before hindi niya mama-match 'yung maturity ko...but he's actually mature. In a relationship, parang ako nga 'yung pabebe girl [laughs] He takes care of me. 'Yun 'yung napatunayan niya while we're going out," she admitted during an interview ahead of their first Valentine's Day together.
Their relationship may have come as a surprise to some, but many were fully supportive of the two. After all, they are homegrown Kapuso stars who are thriving in their careers right now. Both Ashley and Mavy became part of the newest celebrity season of Pinoy Big Brother. However, only Ashley entered the house as a housemate, while Mavy joined the PBB team as one of the newest hosts.
Just a week ago, Ashley was evicted, which gave her the chance to attend her very first ABS-CBN Ball with her boyfriend, Mavy. The two walked hand-in-hand down the red carpet, beaming with joy. We couldn't be happier to see them together!
