The entertainment world remains in deep mourning after the death of veteran actor Ronaldo Valdez, but no one feels the loss more profoundly than his son, singer-actor Janno Gibbs, who is struggling to accept the heartbreaking reality of his father’s passing.

Sources close to the family reveal that Janno is devastated and has remained quiet, grappling with grief as the outpouring of support and condolences continues to flood in from all over the country.


A Bond Beyond the Spotlight

Janno and his father shared more than just a name in showbiz — they shared an unbreakable bond. In past interviews, Janno often spoke about how his father was his biggest role model, both in acting and in life.

“He’s not just my dad. He’s my idol,” Janno once said in an emotional interview, describing Ronaldo Valdez as a guiding light in both his personal and professional journey.

An Outpouring of Sympathy

As the nation grieves, fans and fellow artists have sent love and prayers to the Gibbs family. Tributes continue to pour in for the legendary actor, while many are also expressing deep concern and sympathy for Janno, who has yet to post any public statement.

Close friends reveal that he has broken down several times, unable to contain the pain of losing the man who shaped much of his life.


Remembering a Legend, Mourning as a Son

While the industry celebrates the legacy of Ronaldo Valdez — a man who gave everything to his craft — Janno is navigating the most painful chapter of his life: the death of a father he deeply loved and admired.

“He wasn’t ready. None of us were,” said a family friend.


Private Grief, Public Love

The family has asked for privacy as they prepare for memorial arrangements. In the meantime, fans are encouraged to continue honoring Ronaldo Valdez’s legacy by revisiting his many iconic performances and offering prayers for Janno and the entire Gibbs family.


Rest in peace, Ronaldo Valdez. And to Janno, may you find strength in the love your father left behind — on screen, and in your heart.
