Since his breakup with Jasmine Curtis-Smith, many have wondered on whether or not Sam Concepcion has already found someone new.

For months now, he’s been rumored to be dating Kiana Valenciano, the daughter of Mr. Pure Energy Gary Valenciano.

The Absolute Performer got grilled about his love life during his “Magandang Buhay” interview today, August 11.

When asked, “May bagong laman na ba ang puso mo?” Sam replied, Meron. Love for… self.”

Pressed further about Kiana’s place in his heart, the singer-dancer-actor played coy in his response.

“Bakit siya pinag-uusapan? Ikaw talaga,” he said, directed to one of the hosts, Melai Cantiveros, who did the "interrogation."

He added, “We’ve been friends ever since. Wala, wala, we’re just friends. Ako sobrang chill ko lang sa lahat ng ginagawa ko eh.”

Just recently a screenshot of Sam kissing Kiana’s cheek went viral. It came from the Snapchat of Lauren Reid, James Reid’s sister.

On this, Carlo Orosa, Sam’s manager, said in a statement on “Tonight With Boy Abunda” last August 9, “No comment from Sam. But I’m pretty sure it’s just a friendly kiss.”
