In a 2019 interview, Abad confessed that Cruz was her first boyfriend as well as her “first love.” She also recalled how they were when they were still together, revealing how she would often drop off Cruz in his residence in Pasig City even when she was residing in Cavite at the time. Abad jokingly referred to this act as “very sugar mommy.”
Abad now has two sons with her husband, “Pinoy Big Brother” alum Paul Jake Castillo, with whom she tied the knot in 2016. The couple welcomed their firstborn Joaquin in December 2017, and their youngest child Iñigo in September 2021.
Cruz, meanwhile, shares a son, Elias, with his ex-girlfriend Ellen Adarna. The actor has been rumored to be in a relationship with artist Isabel Santos, but both of them have yet to confirm or deny this as of writing. /ra
