Actress Roxanne Guinoo denied reports that she is now the new found love of actor Sid Lucero, who is her leading man in ABS-CBN’s hit afternoon series, “Ligaw na Bulaklak.”

In an interview with abs-cbnNEWS.com, Guinoo admitted that she is now closer to Lucero but denied that she is romantically involved with him.

“Oo, actually kung saan patapos na ang Ligaw, doon nagkaroon ng isyu. Pero hindi, hindi. Trabaho lang,” Guinoo said.

The actress said that unlike her other leading men who eventually became her boyfriend, Lucero is definitely not one of them.

“Ito hindi. Patapos na ang show, wala talaga. At may girlfriend siya for five years, at bumibisita ang girlfriend niya,” she explained.

Guinoo said that not being romantically linked to Lucero, and her other leading man, rock star-turned-actor Mark Abaya, is not a loss at all since she can work without being emotionally involved.

“Dito kasi, trabaho lang talaga ako. Hindi ako involved sa taong ka-partner ko. Dito ay team lang kami ni Sid at Kuya Mark,” she said.

The actress said she really enjoyed doing “Ligaw na Bulaklak, ” a series that challenged her acting skills.

“Dito, nag-e-effort kami dito kasi hindi kami real life sweetheart. Pero kapag on screen ay solid ang kilig. Sa akin, bilang artista, mas pabor iyong hindi ka stuck sa isang partner mo. Ako, ngayon ko na e-enjoy ang trabaho ko talaga,” Guinoo said.

“Ligaw na Bulaklak” is being shown until October.

Guinoo, who has made headlines because of her failed romantic affairs, is now busy with her upcoming gag show “Banana Split” with RR Enriquez, Princess Ryan, Dianne Medina, Cristine Reyes and Angelica Panganiban.

Guinoo started her career when she joined ABS-CBN's teen edition of Star Circle Quest (SCQ) in 2004. Her first boyfriend was also a former SCQ contestant, Joross Gamboa.

After Joross, she was linked to Willie Revillame, host of the daily noontime show "Wowowee," but the rumor died down after Roxanne and Jake Cuenca were seen going out together.

Aside from being busy taping for "Banana Split," Roxanne is also engaged with her upcoming movies, "Mr. Housewife," with Revillame, and "Florinda" with Diamond Star Maricel Soriano.
