After actors James Reid and Nadine Lustre officially confirmed their split as a couple, James’s sister, model Lauren, seems to be reaffirming her friendship with Lustre by posting pictures of them spending time together.
James and Lustre, better known as JaDine, kicked off their romance as a television love team before confirming their romantic relationship in 2016. The two issued a joined statement announcing their breakup on “Tonight with Boy Abunda” last Monday, Jan. 20.
The confirmation came weeks after speculations about their separation circulated, stringing along a couple of issues regarding the cause of their breakup, such as Lustre’s mental health problems.
“It’s true that we have split up but not for all the [reasons] that are being spread on the tabloids and social media,” JaDine stated. “[A]fter quiet and mature conversations, we decided to focus on ourselves.”
A day after the statement was aired, Lauren posted a couple of photos with Lustre.
Lustre and Lauren bonded by the pool while James’s sister was sunbathing. The two also enjoyed taking a dip in the pool while rocking their accessories and swimsuits.
“Nads film from Boracay,” she said yesterday, Jan. 21.

Lauren made a cheerful face while Lustre gave out a smile. Lauren said: “Date night with Lady Lust.”
