MANILA, Philippines — Former child actor Buboy Villar and his American partner Angillyn Gorens have parted ways.
This was confirmed by Angillyn’s younger sibling Veybillyn in a Philippine Entertainment Portal (Pep) report published Monday.
According to Angillyn, she and Buboy mutually decided to end their relationship.
They have also tried to fix their relationship, but things did not work out for the both of them, Angillyn added.
Buboy and Angillyn first became a couple in February 2016.
Despite their breakup, Angillyn said that she and Buboy still talk through video call.
Buboy and Angillyn are also parents to two kids, 3-year-old Vlanz Karollyn and 1-year-old George Michael.
“Feeling ko, mas naging okay naman both sides,” Angillyn was quoted as saying in the Pep report about her relationship with Buboy now.
(I feel that we both became more okay.)
“Arrangement namin sa mga anak namin is pwede niya dalawin anytime, or kunin sa bahay sila Vlanz at George,” she added.
(Our arrangement is that he can visit them any time, and he can pick up Vlanz and George.)
Angillyn added that their kids are currently staying with her parents.
“Marami nagtatanong sa akin at sa vlog ni Buboy kung bakit sa bahay nakatira yung mga anak namin, ang dahilan dun is dati kasi nagti-taping si Buboy halos araw-araw. Hindi niya rin maaalagaan mga anak namin, at sa bahay naman nila maraming batang inaalagaan mama ni Buboy,” Angillyn said.
(Many are asking me and on Buboy’s vlog why our kids stay at my house. It’s because Buboy is out taping almost everyday. He’s not able to take care of our kids, and in his house, Buboy’s mom is already taking care of so many kids.)
“So we both decided sa bahay na lang yung mga anak namin dahil maaalagaan naman sila mabuti nila Mama at Papa,” she added.
(So we both decided that the kids will stay with me so my Mama and Papa can take care of them.)
Buboy is known for his roles in GMA’s “Super Twins” in 2007 and in an adaptation of “Darna,” starring Marian Rivera, in 2010.
In 2015, Buboy was cast as a young Manny Pacquiao in the biopic film “Kid Kulafu.”
Aside from being an actor, Buboy also has his own YouTube channel, where he has 714,000 subscribers as of this writing.
