⚠️ RUFFA GUTIERREZ WARNED BY YILMAZ BEKTAS’S EX: “DON’T VACATION IN EUROPE!”

Tension brews as Ruffa plans European trip amid cryptic message from her ex-husband’s former partner

📅 May 23, 2025 

Manila, Philippines — The glamorous world of Philippine showbiz is once again buzzing after a mysterious and somewhat ominous warning was issued to actress and former beauty queen Ruffa Gutierrez — and it came from someone with a surprising connection to her past.

The warning came from a woman who once had a romantic relationship with Turkish businessman Yilmaz Bektas, Ruffa’s ex-husband. In a private yet widely circulated message shared with entertainment media sources, the woman reportedly advised Ruffa not to travel to Europe, stating, “There are things you don’t know, and you might be stepping into trouble.”

🔍 Background: A history with twists

Ruffa Gutierrez and Yilmaz Bektas’s relationship has long fascinated the public. Their high-profile marriage in the early 2000s was both glamorous and controversial. After years of ups and downs — and allegations of emotional distress and abuse — the couple separated in 2007. Despite the painful past, Ruffa has remained vocal about maintaining civility with Bektas, especially for the sake of their two daughters, Lorraine and Venice.

Fast forward to 2025 — Ruffa, now in her prime with several endorsements and a possible European film project in the works, shared on her Instagram stories that she was planning a “soul-refreshing” vacation somewhere across Italy and France. The post was full of excitement and positivity — until news outlets received a cryptic message that changed the tone.

⚠️ The warning goes viral

The ex-partner of Yilmaz Bektas — whose name has been withheld for privacy and legal reasons — sent a voice note to a Turkish tabloid, which eventually made its way into Philippine entertainment media. The content of the message was clear and unnerving:

“I don’t wish harm to anyone, but Europe is not the right place for Ruffa right now. There are people who haven’t forgotten… and things that were left unresolved. If I were her, I’d think twice.”

The woman also hinted at past financial and legal tensions involving Yilmaz’s businesses in Europe and warned that Ruffa might unknowingly be putting herself in an uncomfortable or even risky situation.

💬 Netizens react

As the message went viral on both Philippine Twitter (X) and TikTok, fans and critics alike had a lot to say.

Some expressed concern:

“This sounds serious. I hope Ruffa is safe and being advised by her legal team.”
— @ShowbizWatcherPH

Others thought it was nothing more than drama:

“Sounds like an ex trying to stir the pot. Ruffa’s too smart to be fazed by this.”
— @PinoyGlamUpdates

Some fans even joked that this might be the plot of an upcoming teleserye:

“Imagine Ruffa landing in Rome and getting chased by secrets from her past. Netflix, are you watching?”
— @TeatrongPinoy

👩‍🦱 Ruffa’s side: Silence or strategy?

As of writing, Ruffa has not released an official statement addressing the warning. However, her social media activity gives subtle clues. Just hours after the story broke, she posted a photo of herself in a white robe with the caption:

“Peace of mind is priceless.”

Followers speculated that the post was her way of responding to the drama without fueling the fire.

It’s worth noting that Ruffa has always been graceful in handling controversy, often choosing not to engage directly with tabloid narratives. Those close to her say she is still considering whether to proceed with her trip, though sources say her daughters may accompany her, which could influence her decision.

🕵️‍♀️ What could the real reason be?

Insiders in the Turkish and European showbiz scene are now speculating that the warning could involve:

Pending disputes involving Yilmaz’s business partners in Italy and Monaco
Family-related tensions, possibly tied to inheritance or unresolved personal matters
Jealousy or unfinished business between the former partner and Ruffa

While none of these theories have been confirmed, the warning has already cast a shadow over what was supposed to be a relaxing getaway for Ruffa.

Either way, one thing is clear — when Ruffa moves, the whole country watches.
