Catriona Gray attended singer TJ Monterde’s concert and was visibly moved by his performance of his song “Hanggang Dito Na Lang,” with the beauty queen shedding tears over the heartbreak song.

“Isa sa pinakamahirap na part ng relationships ‘yung goodbyes. Five years, seven years, three years, tapos sa isang iglap wala na siya,” Monterde said prior to his performance of the song last Sunday, Feb. 2, as seen in the videos shared by concertgoers on social media.

“‘Di mo alam saan ka magsisimula [kasi] sanay ka nang nand’yan siya…sanay na ‘yung buhay mo na kasama mo siya,” he added. “If that’s you, this song is for you.”

Monterde was only a few lines into the song when the LED screen showed Gray wiping tears from her eyes and covering her lips, seemingly in an attempt to suppress her emotion.

“Akala ko’y habangbuhay tayo / Akala ko’y hanggang dulo / Kay haba pa ng kalsada / Dito na ba tayo bababa?” the lyric goes.

In a TikTok video shared by one @ynahsecretarioflo, Gray is seen leaning her head on her friend Isabel Oli’s shoulder after she saw herself on the screen.

It can be noted as well that the beauty queen was seated just a few seats away from actor Sam Milby, amid rumors of their breakup.

Gray did not immediately comment on her being emotional at the concert.

Gray and Milby, whose relationship was confirmed to the public in May 2020, announced their engagement in February 2023.

A year later, the pair’s talent management company said that they were “facing some challenges in their relationship” but that the couple were “actively working to resolve these issues together.”

However, in May 2024, eagle-eyed fans noticed that the beauty queen had removed her engagement photos with Milby from her Instagram page. In the same month, Milby celebrated his birthday without Gray.

The pair has yet to publicly confirm the rumored breakup as of this writing.
