Judy Ann covering up for husband Ryan?

MANILA, Philippines – Actress Judy Ann Santos refused to dignify rumors that she is covering up the alleged womanizing of her husband, host-actor Ryan Agoncillo.

Santos didn’t even feel the need to deny the persistent showbiz reports.

“I guess hindi mo maiaalis ang mga ganyang tsismis sa isang couple na masaya ang pagsasama.

Pupukpukin at pupukpukin talaga kayo ng intriga hanggang masaya kayong dalawa,” she said in an interview with “The Buzz” that aired on Sunday.

“Pag naghiwalay naman kayo, pipilitin naman kayong magkabalikan. Pag masaya naman kayo, pipilitin kayong paghiwalayin. Pero ako kung saan na lang sila masaya, kung naniniwala sila sa gusto nila paniwalaan, go. Hindi ako makikipag-debate sa kanila,” she said.

In previous interviews, Santos had repeatedly denied that her relationship with Agoncillo has hit a rocky patch because of an alleged third party.

In late November, the host of "MasterChef Pinoy Edition" denied that she is closely guarding her husband because of a model-actress.

Discussing the taped interview, “The Buzz” co-host Charlene Gonzalez said she asked Santos about the issue last December.

“She completely denied it,” Gonzales told host Boy Abunda and co-host Gretchen Barretto.
