Lyca Gairanod shared that she and her boyfriend, Kyle Walle, couldn't be any happier despite getting mixed reactions after going public with their relationship. 

In her latest role in the TV5 love anthology series For The Love, Lyca gets paired with P-pop idol and Alamat member Tomas Rodriguez. 

Lyca admitted her real-life relationship with her boyfriend, Kyle Walle, helped her show realistic ‘kilig’ onscreen with Tomas. 

"Parang sa kilig naman, hindi naman nahirapan si direk kasi nandun din 'yung boyfriend ko doon, nanood siya. He’s very supportive sa akin. So talagang bini-build up rin niya ako. And kasi dahil first time ko din, talagang ganun siya. Pinag-aralan din namin dalawa ni direk 'yung pag-aarte,” she said.

Having grown up in showbiz since joining and emerging as the winner of The Voice Kids in 2014, Lyca shared that netizens had mixed reactions since she went public with her relationship. 

“'Yung first ko, nung pinag-usapan namin na i-pu-public (yung relationship) kasi napag-usapan namin na mas magandang i-public na lang kesa itago. Depende naman 'yun sa iba pero sa amin gusto namin na i-public siya," she explained. 

"And then 'yung mga reaction ng mga tao, meron talagang mga comment na iba pero meron ding nag-co-comment na gusto nila. Hindi ko nga rin alam pero wala naman tayong magagawa kasi kanya kanyang opinyon. So kami naman, ang ginagawa na lang namin, ini-enjoy na lang namin 'yung buhay,” she added.

Aside from acting and singing, Lyca admitted she also enjoys vlogging with her boyfriend, who is still getting used to being in front of the camera. 

“Naku, super mahiyain siya. Pero pag kaming dalawa naman parang ini-enjoy naman niya na magkasama kami. Tapos pag nag-va-vlog naman kami, parang nakakasabay naman siya sa trip ko (laughs) and then pagdating na talaga sa vlog, sasabay na siya," she said. 

"Parang normal na lang sa amin. Pero pagka madaming tao nahihiya siya. Pero siyempre 'yung kulit ko madadamay siya so wala siyang choice. Girlfriend niya ako, ako 'yung mag-va-vlog. Wala na talaga siyang choice (laughs). Luka-luka po 'yung (girlfriend) niya," she added. 

"Pag kaming dalawa mukha siyang extrovert pero pag sa labas hindi na, nagiging mahiyain na siya,” she admitted. 

Lyca’s YouTube channel currently has 2.06 million subscribers. She recently made headlines for sharing her experience going dumpster diving in the US.
