Cristine Reyes, one of the Philippines’ top leading ladies, seems to be turning heads again—this time healthily moving on from her high-profile split with ex-boyfriend Marco Gumabao. The entertainment world is abuzz after veteran showbiz scribe Ogie Diaz and several reliable sources confirmed she’s reportedly dating Gio Tingson, former chair of the National Youth Commission.

💔 Split from Marco Turned Serene?

Following reports that her romance with Marco Gumabao ended earlier this year, things appeared tense—Cristine kept a low profile, focusing on her daughter and career. But insiders say she’s done more than just take a break—she’s already ready to love again.

❤️ Who Is Gio Tingson?

Gio Tingson isn’t exactly a stranger to Cristine. Their connection reportedly goes back to 2009, though nothing official emerged at the time. Now, with Gio holding a prominent position in Grab Philippines’ Public Affairs and having served as NYC Chair, his path has crossed with Cristine more than once.

Ogie Diaz spilled the beans on his show:

“Naka-move on na kay Marco Gumabao… Lagi silang nagkikita nitong si Cristine Reyes, kaya feeling ko naka-move on na si Cristine.”

This confirms what Bandera and LionhearTV later echoed: Cristine was spotted engaging warmly with Gio, even seen linking arms during a cozy meetup.

✨ From Ambush to Attraction

Originally, the romance talk began when Cristine appeared as an endorser for Senator Imee Marcos, while Gio worked on Senator Bam Aquino’s campaign. Their chances of crossing professional paths suddenly became frequent, and what’s more surprising is how these routine meetups transitioned into something romantic. 

Though neither Cristine nor Gio has officially confirmed the relationship, fans are already expressing mixed feelings online:

❤️ “Finally, she looks happy again!”

🤔 Some wait for confirmation, wary of rumors.

📸 The Proof Is in the Pictures

Though the couple hasn’t made a red-carpet entrance, social media shots show:

Smiling, uncomfortable-free photos that say more than words. 

Ogie even described a casual chat between them as “comfortable and friendly”—no signs of awkwardness, meaning this feels genuine.

🧭 What This Means for Cristine’s Story

She’s clearly healing from her post-Marco heartbreak.

The age-old “rebounds” narrative might not apply—this seems more intentional than reckless.

Crystal-clear turn: from actress in a high-profile romantic saga, to a woman taking control of her emotional journey.

🤳 What to Expect Next

Will Cristine officially introduce Gio on-air or in social media?

Could this spark deeper media scrutiny, given their interesting political and entertainment backgrounds?

How will Marco respond—publicly or privately?
