Priscilla Meirelles gamely responded to comments about her separation from husband John Estrada, with the actress-beauty queen even reacting to jokes that made reference to the actor’s “Batang Quiapo” role, Rigor.
Meirelles was swarmed with such comments after she flaunted her curves in a body-fitting dress through her Instagram page last Wednesday, Oct. 30.

“Ako nga pala ‘yung pinagpalit mo, Rigor,” one netizen wrote, referring to the TV series character who’s popular for letting his mistress live with him and his legal wife in one house.

Another netizen then expressed admiration for Meirelles, saying the latter is an “inspiration.”
“The greatest revenge in life is to love yourself. Loving yourself first before anyone,” the netizen said, to which Meirelles replied, “Amen!”

Meanwhile, Meirelles appears to have dismissed a netizen’s claim that the couple is supposedly still together and living under the same roof.
“The problem with making assumptions,” Meirelles lamented.

Just prior to this, Estrada was seen with a woman at an unidentified bar. The actor did not immediately comment on the matter.
Last July, Estrada released a statement after he was spotted with a woman in Boracay, saying he and Meirelles had “mutually agreed” to take a break. Meirelles, however, clarified afterwards that “there was never any mutual agreement regarding [their] separation.”
Meirelles and Estrada share a daughter named Anechka.
