Matatandaang December 23, 2023, nang magkasunod na aminin nina Kim at Xian sa pamamagitan ng social media na naghiwalay na sila.
Nagsalita ang aktor at direktor sa panayam ng Inquirer tungkol sa “steak” issue, pati na rin sa pinagdaanan niya at ng kanyang pamilya mula nang mag-break sila ni Kim.
Inamin ng binata na isa ang kanyang inang si Mary Anne ang naging sandalan niya sa pagmu-move on sa nawasak niyang puso.
“My mom. She advised me to stay away from the news, from all social media platforms, because things were getting too out of hand.
“She also advised me to not mind all the fake news and the things people are saying about me, that deep inside, we know the truth and that’s all that matters.
“She also said that if people like to believe all these, then there’s nothing I can do about it. She’s my support, my pillar, the wall I lean on, even until now. I’m lucky that she’s a strong woman,” pahayag ng aktor.
Aniya pa, “Other people might have broken down because of what’s happening. She’s been getting harmful, below-the-belt messages, even threats. For some reason, people got hold of her number.”
Patuloy pa niya, “I just want to explain this well and give it some context so people will understand.
“Our fans, I don’t even call them fans because they eventually became our friends, they became family, have my mom’s number.
“For the past 12 years, we were okay. She was always just a text away from our followers. All of a sudden, this happened, Kim and I broke up.

“I just don’t understand why these people we know are now going out of their way to say hurtful words to my mother. What for?
“We gave a reason for the split, that’s it. Just take that. ‘Di na kailangan himayin. We were very sad, of course. These were people we trusted. We considered them family. My mom had to change her number.
“We don’t even talk about it in the house anymore. She just tells me, ‘As long as we know the truth, we don’t have to play this game with them,’” mariin pa niyang sabi.
“Maybe they reacted that way because they felt disappointed by the breakup. All I can say is that, we also felt hurt. I know it’s painful, but we never wanted this to happen.
“This relationship lasted for 12 years because we worked on it. It’s just that life happened. It was also painful for us. It was unexpected, but it’s best if we all just move on with our lives,” sabi pa ni Xian.
Kasunod nito, nilinaw nga ni Xian ang lumabas na chika tungkol sa pagpapaluto raw niya ng steak kay Kim at pagkatapos ay sinabi raw niya na maghiwalay na sila.
Paglilinaw ni Xian sa naturang panayam, “There’s no truth to it. It’s absurd. I don’t see where it’s coming from. Is it because people are using us for entertainment? I cannot orchestrate that.”
“I wasn’t the one who initiated the breakup. All these fake news, all these dagdag-bawas, are just too much already,” paglilinaw pa ni Xian.
