Heart Evangelista and Sen. Francis “Chiz” Escudero appeared to have rekindled their romance, as the actress-socialite and the politician were spotted together exploring various tourist sites in Japan.
As seen in a series of photos posted on Evangelista’s Instagram page Thursday, Jan. 5. she was enjoying her time in Japan with Escudero and her stepchildren, Quino and Chesi. The family vacation marks their first public appearance after she shut down rumors last Dec. 31, 2022, that they had broken up.
One of the actress’ vacation snaps showed her and Escudero enjoying coffee at what appears to be a coffee shop at the Roppongi district in Tokyo, Japan. The senator was also tagged in the caption of her post.

The fashion icon previously shared glimpses of herself bonding with Quino and Chesi at a restaurant and on the streets of Japan.
Rumors about Evangelista and Escudero’s separation swirled on social media after eagle-eyed netizens noticed that the former had dropped her marital surname from her Instagram account and revealed in October last year that she would be staying abroad “indefinitely.”
Despite break-up speculations, the couple seems to have shut down the rumors for good after Evangelista said she would be spending time with Escudero and his children for the holidays. /ra
