It was like holiday for every AlDub fan and the fans of either Alden Richards or Maine Mendoza, most of them skipping work or classes in school (especially those with late afternoon or night classes) so they could watch the premiere (simultaneous in every country where GMA Network has a significant presence) last night of Destined To Be Yours after the top-rating Encantadia.

After a long wait, the first primetime series starring Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza finally hit the small screen 

The long wait was over for these fans of the phenomenal love team of Richards and Mendoza for their first-ever teleserye together. It took the Kapuso entertainment TV group almost a semester to cement a concept that would fit the two stars and how it would impact on the minds and hearts of their fans.

Destined To Be Yours revolves around Benjie Rosales (Alden) and Sinag Obispo (Maine), two entirely different people from two different worlds, and how they meet as destiny works its magic on both of them, eventually love weaves its way into their lives.

During the press conference held on Valentine’s Day in a ballroom at a Quezon City hotel, Richards expressed his happiness and excitement over the highly anticipated series. “Sobrang happy ako with the team and with the actors na nakakasama po namin dahil ramdam ko po ‘yung passion nila to make the soap work and to make the script very effective sa audience and sa actors as well.”

Meanwhile, Mendoza just wanted their supporters to be proud of their work. “Ginawa namin itong soap na ito para sa aming fans. Ang talagang importante sa amin ni Alden ay magustuhan nila. Sana matuwa sila at maging proud sila sa akin, sa amin.”
