Celeste Cortesi says all good with BF; Bianca Manalo denies third party claims
Celeste Cortesi and Bianca Manalo respectively issued a statement debunking claims that the former had supposedly broken up with her partner and that the latter was allegedly the third party in the split.
Cortesi, who is currently pregnant, addressed the rumors via her Instagram Stories on Friday, June 12, while showing a photo of her and British software developer-philanthropist Jonathan Sterling together, all-smiles.
“Jonny and I are good. Our focus remains on caring for our child, Sergio, and supporting our family,” said the Miss Universe Philippines 2022.
“I believe some situations call for greater consideration and respect, especially when a child and family are already involved. Our priority is our family, and that is where our time, energy, and attention will remain,” she continued.
Concluding her statement, Cortesi stated, “With that said, people can now relax and focus on their own lives instead. Thank you.”
Manalo shared the statement released by talent management company Sparkle GMA Artist Center via her Instagram page.
“On behalf of our Sparkle Artist, Bianca Manalo, we would like to clarify that there is no truth to rumors circulating about her involvement with another couple,” it read.
“She is single and not in any relationship. We hope this settles the matter and that we all continue to spread and click kindness instead,” it added.
