Padilla and Bernardo, who had been in a relationship since 2012, earlier announced their split after weeks of speculations from fans.
The actress admitted that they “have been drifting apart for a while now,” noting that it would not be fair if they would pretend that everything is still the same.
For his part, Padilla, who has been linked to other actresses, vowed that his love for Bernardo would never end.
