🔴BREAKING: Jessy Mendiola Finally Breaks Her Silence on Breakup with Luis Manzano

MAY 23, 2025 | 

Manila, Philippines — After weeks of silence and speculation, Jessy Mendiola has finally spoken up about her rumored separation from husband Luis Manzano, confirming what fans have feared: “Yes, Luis and I have gone our separate ways.”

In a heartfelt video uploaded to her official YouTube channel earlier today, Jessy addressed the public for the first time since rumors of their split started circulating on social media. The video, titled “To Those Asking… Here’s the Truth,” was nearly 12 minutes long and quickly trended within an hour of posting.

💔 “We Tried. But Sometimes, Love Isn’t Enough.”

Jessy began her video with a heavy sigh, holding back tears as she thanked everyone for their patience.

“This isn’t easy for me to talk about. Luis has been my partner for many years — through joy, pain, change. But yes, we’ve decided to part ways. It’s painful, but peaceful. We both tried.”

According to Jessy, the decision was mutual and made out of respect for each other’s growth.

“We didn’t break up because of hate. There’s still love — just not the kind that survives forever under pressure.”

She also asked for privacy for both their families, especially for their daughter, Isabella, who she emphasized will “always be loved by both mom and dad.”

Jessy firmly denied speculation that a third party was involved, calling the rumors “hurtful and irresponsible.”

“There was no cheating. No scandal. Sometimes, things fall apart simply because people grow apart. That’s our truth.”

The actress said that both she and Luis made the decision months ago but kept it private for the sake of healing and their daughter’s well-being.

Breakup rumors intensified earlier this year when fans noticed the couple hadn’t posted photos together since February. Jessy also attended recent events solo, and eagle-eyed followers noted that she had removed several couple photos from her Instagram feed.

Luis, on the other hand, maintained silence — choosing to post only cryptic quotes and family-related content. Neither party confirmed nor denied the rumors until today.
