Jake Cuenca: New playboy in town?

Is Jake Cuenca slowly building himself up as showbiz’s newest playboy?

The list of women being romantically linked to him is ever-growing and if rumors are to be believed, his latest “conquest” is said to be John Lloyd’s ex-girlfriend stylist Liz Uy.

The two were recently spotted at a party. The sweetness they displayed all through the night had showbiz observers concluding there’s more to their friendship than meets the eye.

But Jake is quick to douse the rumor. On "Showbiz News Ngayon" aired February 10, 2010, the actor clarified that Liz is just among his lady friends, no more, no less.



“Birthday party niya. I just dropped by kasi Liz, along with sina Anne, Georgina… they’re all my friends,” he said.

Is he courting Liz?

“Wala, wala,” he said, laughing.

Jake recently signed up for a two-year exclusive contract with ABS-CBN. The signing up was attended by ABS-CBN’s Channel Head Cory Vidanes, Entertainment Head Linggit Tan, Business Unit Head Deo Endrinal and Jake’s manager Neil de Guia.

“Sila ang nagbigay sa akin ng big breaks ko. I’m really proud to be signing here today,” Jake said.

There are also incessant rumors that Jake is romancing young star Melissa Ricks.

For months now, reports of their being in a more-than-friendly relationship continues. But they have denied all allegations. What they did admit is occasional dating, the most recent of which was at a mall in Alabang.

When "Pinoy Big Brother" housemate Sam Pinto was interviewed, she dished out that she once dated Jake. But the actor, for reasons unknown to her, stopped seeing her. They met during a commercial shoot.

Last year, Jake’s name was also linked to Bea Alonzo after her break-up with actor Miko Palanca.
