Contis and Reyes’ split was confirmed by his manager, Lolit Solis, in August 2021, following speculations that actress Yen Santos caused their breakup. Prior to their split, Contis and Santos starred in the 2021 film “A Faraway Land” which fueled romance rumors between the pair. 

The actor later revealed in September 2021 that he had cheated on his ex-partner, although he stressed that Santos had no involvement in their breakup. Contis also insisted that he spent time with his rumored girlfriend in Baguio “as a friend.” The “A Faraway Land” stars have yet to confirm the status of their relationship as of this writing.

Reyes, who is currently based in New York with her children Ethan Akio and Summer, revealed in an October 2021 interview that Contis had yet to make any efforts to communicate after their breakup. Summer is the actress’ child with Contis, while Ethan is her son with ex-boyfriend Paulo Avelino.  /ra
