SHOCKING! Luis Manzano Dragged Into Lawsuit Over Fake Death Scandal!

In a jaw-dropping twist no one saw coming, beloved TV host and actor Luis Manzano has found himself entangled in legal drama — not for a crime he committed, but for a death he never experienced.

Just days after social media exploded with fake news about his alleged passing, a bizarre lawsuit has surfaced accusing Luis of being somehow involved in the spread of the death hoax that rocked the entertainment world and sent his fans into a panic.

The lawsuit, filed by a private complainant, claims that Luis “intentionally benefited from the online chaos,” suggesting that the actor may have used the fake death report to generate publicity and attention. The complainant alleges that the emotional impact on the public and the potential disruption to public peace are serious enough to warrant legal consequences.

But Luis is not laughing.

“This is beyond absurd,” said Luis in an official statement released by his legal team. “I didn’t fake my own death. I didn’t even know about the rumor until people started calling me, crying. And now I’m being sued for it? This is harassment.”

The hoax first surfaced on random Facebook pages and clickbait gossip sites, falsely claiming that Luis had “suddenly passed away.” Within hours, the fake news spread like wildfire, with fans expressing grief — and confusion — over the unverified reports. The hashtag #RIPLuisManzano even trended briefly, causing further alarm.

Luis immediately took to Instagram and X (formerly Twitter) to debunk the claim. In his trademark sarcastic humor, he posted: “Buhay pa po ako, at gutom pa rin.” Despite his lighthearted approach, the star admitted that the incident left his wife Jessy Mendiola and his mother, veteran actress Vilma Santos, in tears.

“They were terrified,” Luis said. “That’s when I knew this wasn’t funny anymore. Somebody out there thought it was okay to scare my family — now I am the one being dragged into court?”

Legal experts are calling the case “weak” and “potentially frivolous,” noting that unless the complainant can produce solid evidence linking Luis to the original hoax, the case could be dismissed outright. Still, the very existence of the complaint has turned what should have been a cautionary tale about fake news into a real-life legal circus.

Fans and fellow celebrities have since rallied behind Luis, expressing outrage over the lawsuit. Many are calling for a crackdown on fake news peddlers and demanding social media platforms take accountability for unchecked false reports that can damage lives.

As for Luis, he remains calm — but determined.

“I’m not just going to clear my name — I’m going after the real culprits,” he said. “This isn’t just about me anymore. Anyone can be the next victim.”

In the end, the most ironic part of this scandal is chilling: a man very much alive is now fighting a legal battle over a death that never happened.
