He Knows What A Woman Wants and Needs
During the promotion of their film Hello, Love, Again, the actor made it his habit to be Kathryn’s official tissue provider—a running joke that the fans documented. With an eagle-eyed attention for the actress’ needs, Alden would discreetly ask for anything that Kath needed. At times Prince Charming-like such as his infamous jump from one escalator to another, his actions—until today—are still quiet yet firm, needing no validation to do or be good.
He is a Good Communicator
Aside from his acting prowess, Alden is a charismatic and eloquent speaker. Whether he is talking about the AR Foundation—his own initiative dedicated to providing education to the underprivileged—or his films, the Kapuso star knows how pull us in through his thoughts. His charming and approachable personality is inviting, and we just can’t help but be mesmerized by his words! For sure, when it comes to the love language of words of affirmation, Alden has that covered.
He Willingly Shares the Spotlight
One of the best things to come out of the Hello, Love, Goodbye and Hello, Love, Again films was the natural dynamic between him and Kathryn. The actor is never afraid to share his spotlight, always making sure that his co-star gets to speak her piece. Whether it’s an interview or a short TikTok video, Alden will always make sure not to interrupt her and respectfully wait for his turn. Besides his latest leading lady, Julia Montes and Sharon Cuneta have also stated in multiple interviews how grateful they were of Alden’s friendship and professional approach to his craft.
He Knows How to Manage His Resources
Did you know that Alden Richards is also a competent businessman? With many franchises up his sleeve, he makes sure that he’s earning passively, knowing that the showbiz life won’t be there forever. He has turned his love for food into an opportunity; some of these are Concha’s Garden Cafe which he co-owns—and now with four branches—and a McDonald’s branch in Biñan, Laguna. Aside from the food industry, the entrepreneur also established Myriad Entertainment Corporation in 2022, intending to provide quality entertainment and support the e-sports industry in the country.
He Makes Time for the Important People
Spreading all over TikTok is how Alden is very familiar with Kath’s family. Being the respectful gentleman that he is, the actor always makes sure to acknowledge her family even during a performance! From meeting and visiting Kath’s family, saying hi to them, even carrying Little Qyona, the actress’ niece? That’s boyfriend material right there! Don’t forget how he missed an awards show to be present at Kathryn’s house party!
He Knows His Fashion
We’re all suckers for men with amazing taste in fashion. Alden Richards may have a grooming and styling team for his engagements, but he is also well-versed with his own sartorial vocabulary. Case in point? His watch collection. Whether he’s wearing a pristine suit, a jacket, or even just a simple shirt, the actor somehow manages to make everything he wears so clean and stylish.
He is a True Gentleman
Ah, yes, the crowd-favorite. Whether it’s a jumper that’s sitting too low or a simple adjustment to make a too-short skirt longer, Kathryn had Alden to watch her for an unexpected wardrobe malfunction at bay. Just recently, their skydiving experience was also a testament to Alden’s attitude that he is not just there to make things happen, but to be with you as well when your dreams make come true.
Let’s face it—all these are the basic things that a man should do and be. But at a time when we find ourselves asking and dreaming for these traits, isn’t it more heartwarming when you have someone like Alden who hits these marks without having to ask for it?
