Rumors of the split reached fever pitch on Monday, January 29, when entrepreneur Ricco Ocampo – the couple’s godfather – confirmed in an interview with ABS-CBN News that the two had indeed parted ways.
“While the friendship between the two remains, they have decided it is time to lead separate lives. They are encouraging each other to grow, albeit in different directions. It was a mutual decision, an amicable separation, dealt with grace and maturity by both parties,” Ocampo said, saying the couple had been separated since 2019.
