Mikael Daez: Is he or isn’t he?

MANILA, Philippines – Will actor-model Mikael Daez finally confirm or deny his rumored relationship with Miss World 2013 Megan Young?

The two are widely speculated to have been in a relationship for 3 years now. But every time they are asked about this otherwise ordinary “status” if it involved other people, they would always say they are “just good friends.”

Before Megan was romantically linked to Mikael, she was in a relationship with basketball player Nico Salva. That lasted for more than two years.

When she was still competing in season two of GMA-7’s “Starstruck” (where she finished second), she was romantically linked with co-contestant Benj Pacia.

Mikael came into the public view (in the Megan context, that is) when pictures of the two surfaced on social media. They were both seen going on a trip together and in candid social-media moments.

Mikael entered showbiz in 2011 via GMA-7’s epic serye “Amaya.” His most recent serye is “With a Smile.”

He got his first taste of controversy a few years back, when a photo of what looked like Mikael in his birthday suit, holding a video camera, appeared on the Internet. But that “issue” blew over right away because of his refusal to dignify it.

Anyway, Mikael went to Bali, Indonesia, amid the excitement of the contest in the Indonesian island-province. But he just stayed there for a few days and was not able to stay for the pageant night when Megan won the Miss World crown.

But before the pageant started in Bali, he tweeted this message:

Texted @meganbata before she went on stage. I said “You’re gonna rock the world! ” and there we have it PH! That’s our queen

Mikael said he was not surprised that Megan won, because, for him, Megan had the whole package and he could literally see the Miss World crown on her head. – Rappler.com
