In a twist no one saw coming, Tom Rodriguez has reportedly gifted his former wife, actress Carla Abellana, with a brand-new car, leaving fans stunned and rumors swirling all over social media.

Is this a grand gesture of reconciliation, or is something deeper going on between the two?

🚗 The Surprise That Shook the Internet

According to close sources and circulating photos on fan pages, Tom arranged for the luxury vehicle to be delivered directly to Carla’s residence, complete with a ribbon and a handwritten note that simply read:

“You deserve everything beautiful. – Tom.”

The gesture quickly caught fire online, with netizens sharing mixed reactions ranging from excitement to confusion.

💔 From Love to Loss — and Back Again?

Tom and Carla’s highly publicized separation in 2022 left fans heartbroken. Their romance — once considered a “fairy tale” in local showbiz — took a turn for the worse amid rumors of betrayal, miscommunication, and emotional distance.

But since early 2025, eagle-eyed fans have noticed subtle signs of a possible rekindling:

And now… this car?

“You don’t just give a car to an ex unless you’re either making amends or trying to win her back,” one netizen commented.

🗣️ Carla’s Reaction: “I Didn’t Expect This…”

Although Carla has not yet made an official statement, sources close to the actress say she was “touched and overwhelmed” by the gesture, even shedding tears upon seeing the surprise.

“She didn’t know what to say at first,” said a friend. “There’s still a lot of love between them — but also a lot of pain.”

🔍 More Than a Gift?

Entertainment insiders believe this move could be more than just a gift — it could be Tom’s way of saying sorry, or a silent plea for another chance.

While some fans cheered for a possible reconciliation, others urged caution, reminding Carla of the emotional rollercoaster she endured post-breakup.

“Gifts can be sweet, but healing takes more than a car,” one fan warned.

❤️ Will Love Win Again?

For now, neither Tom nor Carla has confirmed whether this signals a romantic comeback or simply a heartfelt gesture of respect and gratitude.

But one thing is clear:
The story of Tom and Carla is far from over.

Whether this is the start of a new chapter or just a beautiful ending — fans everywhere are watching, waiting, and hoping.

‘One-night stand’: Rey Abellana speaks out on ‘third party’ with Carla, Tom Rodriguez
MANYILAH — Actor Rey Abellana has spoken out about the relationship between his daughter Carla Abellana and her husband Tom Rodriguez.

The father’s defense is that there was no third party in Abellana and Rodriguez’s relationship and that it was just a “one-night stand.”

“Honestly speaking, we can’t consider the situation as a third party because the incident was a one-night stand,” the father said in an interview with Cristy Fermin on One PH.

“So, we don’t consider it a third party,” the actor explained.

The actor also defended himself by saying that it’s natural for men to be tempted and that it has happened to him before.

“I admit that as a man, I’m a man. Me, way back, it happens to me too, it’s pretty normal in men’s lives,” he said.

“I understand that, what happened in temptation is not a mortal sin for me. As a real person, it’s only natural for people to experience such things, it’s natural in life,” he added.

When asked about the couple’s marital status, Carla reportedly told him to let them sort it out first.

“My son asked me to hold on, stay put and let us be the ones to settle it personally, considering that it’s also a personal problem between them.”

Abellana and Rodriguez got married in October. The two have been in a relationship since 2014.

There have been recent rumors that they have separated, but the two have remained silent on the issue.
