Kylie Padilla crossed off another country from her bucket list as she explored Japan with her sister and a rumored tattoo artist boyfriend.
On Instagram, the actress shared a Polaroid picture of her and her sister and another image of her and her rumored flame showing only their backs.

Last January, a TikTok video of Padilla and a man going shopping made the rounds online. The same month, celebrity fitness coach Francis Simon directly asked the actress a video about the identity of the man.
“Meron akong itatanong, nagkakagulo [kasi] ang lahat… Sino ba ‘yung kasama mo sa mall, ‘yung nakaputi [at] long hair?” asked the coach. (I have something to ask, because everyone was in a buzz. Who was the person with you at the mall, the one in white and long hair?)
“Ah, ayun ba? [Siya] ‘yung nagpapasaya sa puso ko. ‘Yun ‘yon,” replied Padilla. (Ah, that one? [He] is the one who makes my heart happy. That’s it.)
Francis followed up his question with another, asking if he personally knew her “man,” to which Padilla answered in the affirmative, noting that they share a resemblance.
Despite not naming the mystery man, the netizens assumed that it was Jinno John Simon, a tattoo artist and the brother of the actress’ coach, after Francis replied to a few comments on TikTok, seemingly confirming the identity of Padilla’s rumored boyfriend.

Eagled-eyed fans also noticed that it was the same man on the actress’ Instagram reels when she vacationed in Thailand in December 2023.
In her interview with PEP last year, Padilla shared that “her heart is happy” and said that she wants “to keep it private” whatever is going on in her personal life right now following the controversies she previously faced amid her split from estranged husband, actor Aljur Abrenica.
Padilla and Abrenica share two children together.
