Karylle and her fans have been tripping down memory lane on Instagram.
This week, the ABS-CBN singer/actress/TV host reposted Instagram stories of her fans who have been watching her teleseryes from way back.
One of Karylle’s reposts was the story of @janethx44 who watched the final episode of Twin Hearts on Youtube.
Twin Hearts was her first teleserye that aired on GMA Telebabad in October 2003.
She wrote in her repost, “Hala ka! Super throwback. Twin hearts we will never be apart I will love you for the rest of my life”
The teleserye also featured Tanya Garcia, Dennis Trillo, and Karylle’s ex-boyfriend Dingdong Dantes.
In Twin Hearts, Karylle plays the role of Iris, the ex-girlfriend of Adrian (Dingdong) who is killed by armed men attempting to rob her house.
She then becomes the heart donor to Althea (Tanya), who suffered heart failure after a freak accident.
Later in the story, Karylle returns as Jade, Adrian’s center of attention after his breakup with Althea.
But Adrian still loves Althea, and Jade goes to Australia to continue her studies.
In the show’s last episode, Karylle appears again as the spirit of Iris, together with Glenn (Dennis Trillo), another spirit, at the wedding of Althea and Adrian.
The role of Iris in Twin Hearts was written as a short one, but Karylle was made to come back after writers revived the character of Jade, who should look exactly like Iris, to stir more conflict.
KARYLLE: FROM KAPUSO TO KAPAMILYA
In 2001, Karylle started as a Kapuso talent, and was part of GMA-7’s Sunday variety show SOP: Sobrang Okey Pare. In 2003, she was tapped to do Twin Hearts.
