Jak Roberto has so far remained silent despite his confirmed split with Barbie Forteza after seven years of relationship, as the actor has yet to issue a statement addressing their breakup.
Forteza announced her breakup with Roberto on her Instagram account on Thursday, Jan. 2, while thanking the latter for “loving [her] the way [he] did.” She, however, didn’t reveal the cause of their split.
The actor, on the other hand, has yet to address Forteza’s revelation. His recent post was a clip of the rapper-songwriter Gloc-9 performing at a New Year countdown event in Makati on Wednesday, Jan. 1. His comments section is limited as well.
“Welcome 2025! Happy New Year,” Roberto captioned his post.
Roberto’s last post featuring Forteza is a photo of them enjoying an intimate dinner at a steak restaurant to celebrate the actor’s birthday last December.
According to Forteza, the actor was an “exceptional” partner throughout their relationship. She also hoped Roberto would take care of himself and find the “love [he] deserves.”
A brother of Kapuso actress Sanya Lopez, Roberto appeared in the series “Kara Mia,” “Contessa,” “Heartful Cafe,” “Bolera,” and several episodes of the anthology series “Magpakailanman” and “Tadhana.”
