Syed Saddiq & Bella Astillah’s ‘Romantic’ Stunt Sparks Dating Rumours—Netizens Ship Them Hard!

The internet is buzzing with speculation about Muar MP Syed Saddiq and actress-singer Bella Astillah, with many convinced that the two are more than just friends.

Swimming Through the Rain… for Love?

The rumours intensified after Syed Saddiq posted a video of himself swimming across the sea towards Bella Astillah, all while it was raining heavily.

In the video, Syed Saddiq is seen diving into the sea in full attire, watch still on his wrist, before making his way toward the coastline. Waiting on the other side, Bella cheers and claps for him as he reaches the shore.

Adding fuel to the fire, he captioned the post with “I’ll climb every mountain, and swim every ocean.”

If that sounds familiar, it’s because those are lyrics from Calum Scott’s love ballad, ‘You Are The Reason’. The next line of the song? “Just to be with you.” Coincidence? Netizens don’t think so.

To top it off, the background music of the video, ‘Sumpah Dan Cinta Matiku’ by Nidji, carries themes of deep, unwavering love.

Netizens Lose Their Minds Over the ‘Love Story’

At the time of writing, the video has racked up 5.7 million views on TikTok and 2.5 million views on Instagram. Naturally, netizens can’t get enough of the playful teasing between the two.

“You’ve climbed mountains, you’ve swum across the seas of Sabah. If the wedding doesn’t happen, I’ll block you on TikTok,” joked one fan.

“If you two don’t get married, I won’t vote for you,” another user wrote.

Others pointed out how Syed Saddiq and Bella previously worked together on marketing campaigns for Primavalet, a local fashion brand.

“Before this, Primavalet used them for marketing. Now, they use Primavalet as an excuse for dating. We approve!” one user teased.

Whether this is just good fun or something more serious, Syed Saddiq and Bella are definitely keeping everyone guessing—and shipping them harder than ever!
