Luis Manzano vs Jennylyn Mercado; Couple Unfollow Each Other on Social Media

Showbiz couple Luis Manzano and Jennylyn Mercado will be pitted against each other weekday mornings when their shows go head-to-head starting August 26.

The new parent-kid reality show of GMA-7 Anak Ko Yan (That's My Baby), hosted by Jennylyn Mercado, will directly compete with Luis Manzano's game show Minute to Win It on ABS-CBN. The two programs will literally clash since both will be shown on the same timeslot.

Jennylyn Mercado posted on Instagram a screenshot of Luis Manzano's comment about her earlier post on the timeslot of her new show Anak Ko Yan. 

"Announcement… Dahil nag decide ang management na ipagtapat an minute to win it sa anak ko yan….Nag decide rin kami ni @mercadojenny na i unfollow ang isa’t isa at wag na muna magusap habang umeere mga show namin, hope you understand… :p hehe," Luis said.

The screenshot was captioned by Jennylyn: "Yes... Wala munang i love you, i miss you, lambingan, hug at kung ano ano pa. Di muna siguro kami rin magkikita muna at maguusap. (Pero kami [pa] rin syempre) yun lang muna sa ngayon. Hope you understand. @luckymanzano."

Jennylyn in her interviews said that she told Luis about the impending clash between their shows. She also said that they just love to joke around but both support each other no matter what. She also assured that there will be a healthy competition between them.

We will see in the coming days on who will emerge victorious between the two and their competing programs. One thing is for sure though--Jennylyn is the winner in Luis' heart.
