Kris Aquino admits she and Mel Sarmiento have split; find out the reason
In her Instagram post, Kris Aquino admitted that she and Mel Sarmiento have split. Kris made this announcement after netizens noticed that Mel’s photos were no longer on her IG account.

According to Kris, she wanted to avoid further speculation so she shared what happened in her relationship with the former secretary of the Interior and Local Government.

It can be recalled that the two got engaged just last October.

“In what I’m going through now, does anyone want to talk about my separation?” Aquino said in the post, which also contained some information about her health.

“But in order for me to be able to peacefully move on, and focus on myself and my health, BECAUSE my sons still need me, Kuya Josh has autism, and Bimb will only turn 18 in 3 years, 3 months, and 16 days, I must end this chapter,” Kris said.

Kris posted the screenshots of Mel’s last message to him.

“After that you will never read nor hear anything at all about him from me, because I still want to preserve whatever dignity I have left,” said Kris. In Mel’s message, it was stated, “For the past two days, I had enough time to think about things and accepted the fact that ensuring you don’t get COVID is an enormous responsibility.

“Given my nature, who loves to go out, I accept the fact that I already have a bubble fatigue and I will not be able to, sad to say, be able to continue living in a bubble,” continued the former secretary.

It is said that Mel does not want to compromise the health of Kris who has an “autoimmune disease.”

“On that note, with a heavy heart I accepted your offer of letting me go. For I cannot in conscience be able to accept that something will happen to you that brought about my going out of the bubble. I will always cherish in my heart the happy moments we had together,” according to Mel. In this post, Kris said that it is possible that he will go abroad to focus on his illness.

“I want to spare myself and my loved ones from further rumors & speculation. My health has continued to deteriorate, and I will soon fly abroad for further diagnostic tests and if needed,” he said.

“Do all the treatments and procedures to help address my drastic weight loss (I now weigh 88 lbs/40 kilos) and if still possible, strengthen my immunity. From last quarter of 2018, I’ve long known that my autoimmune conditions could only be treated BUT never cured,” she also said.

Showbiz was once again shaken when the news that Kris Aquino and Mel Sarmiento had officially broken up was confirmed. The love story that was once admired by many is now just a memory. The Philippine media queen is no longer secretive about her status and sends a definitive message: “A breakup is a breakup!”

Kris Aquino and Mel Sarmiento once surprised the public when they made their relationship public and even got engaged. Fans had hoped for a happy ending for the famous actress and MC, especially after the challenges she had gone through in her personal life. But things did not go as expected.

Through an emotional statement, Kris Aquino confirmed that she and Mel Sarmiento were no longer together. Without revealing too many details, Kris emphasized that this was a carefully considered decision and she has no regrets.

While Kris kept the official reasons secret, many industry sources said that there were irreconcilable conflicts between the two. Kris Aquino’s health is also said to be a major factor, as she is battling an autoimmune disease. In addition, her busy schedule and the pressure from the public may have contributed to making this relationship difficult to maintain.

Some rumors also said that Mel Sarmiento felt pressured to be with someone as famous and influential as Kris Aquino. However, all of this stopped at speculation, as the two have not made any further comments.

Despite the regret from fans, Kris Aquino still showed her usual strength. She did not allow herself to be immersed in grief for too long and affirmed that she would continue to focus on her health as well as her personal projects.

“Breaking up is breaking up” – a decisive but courageous statement from a woman who has gone through many storms in life. Although the ending is somewhat sad, Kris Aquino is still Kris Aquino – always strong, always ready to move forward.

The public is waiting for Kris’s next move, and it is certain that no matter what happens, she will continue to shine in her own way!
