Angelica Panganiban dismisses rumors that Derek Ramsay will propose to her during their South Africa vacation.

Angelica Panganiban joined the rest of the Bench models in the Bench, Human, and Kashieca Fashion Week shows held last May 30 at the SM Mall of Asia. Other Kapamilya stars who joined the event included Bea Alonzo, Shaina Magdayao, Diether Ocampo, Coco Martin, Jake Cuenca, Sam Pinto, and the Pinoy Big Brother Double Up Big Five Melai Cantiveros, Jason Francisco, Paul Jake Castillo, Johan Santos, and Tibo Jumalon. "Natutuwa kami sa pagtanggap ng mga tao [dahil] na-appreciate nila yung presence naming mga artista."

Since Angelica has already finished taping for Rubi, she and boyfriend Derek Ramsay are all set for their South African adventure. They will be leaving on Sunday, June 6, and will be touring around the continent for a month. "Punong-puno na ‘yung schedule namin dun, marami na kaming activities na gagawin; excited na kami mag-sky diving, magdi-dive with great white sharks, and mag-safari." Angelica said that they will definitely grow even closer to each other during the trip. "Mas lalo naming makikilala yung isa't-isa, mas matagal kaming magsasama; isang buwang straight kami magsasama so mas marami kaming malalaman sa isa't-isa."

While the trip will bring them closer as a couple, Angelica clarified that contrary to rumors, Derek will not be proposing to her during their vacation. "Wala naman kasi talagang proposal na mangyayari sa South Africa. 'Yung mga tao lang sa paligid namin yung gumagawa nun, so sana huwag na lang kaming pangunahan, ‘di ba? Hindi naman sila parte ng relationship namin. Kaming dalawa lang yun so sa aming dalawa lang 'yun.

Meanwhile, Angelica dealt with rumors that she had an attitude problem while she worked on Rubi, which supposedly resulted in her not being on good terms with her co-stars. "Wala [walang ganun], masaya kami, nagbibigayan kami ng regalo, nagkikita kami kahit walang trabaho. So kung sino man yung gumawa ng intrigang yun… kaya kong magtaray sa mga taong dapat pagtarayan, may mga tao akong tinuturing na kaibigan so kaibigan ko sila habang buhay pero kapag ginawa nila akong kaaway, kaaway din nila ako habang buhay. Masaya kami sa set, hindi niyo akalain kung gaano kami kasaya sa set."
