In a revelation that has sent fans and netizens into a frenzy, beauty queen and actress Bianca Manalo has finally broken her silence and admitted the real status of her much-speculated relationship with actor Rob Gomez.

For weeks, rumors have been swirling online, fueled by cryptic social media posts, joint public appearances, and undeniable chemistry between the two. But until now, neither Bianca nor Rob had confirmed — or denied — anything.

That all changed when Bianca sat down for an exclusive interview, where she openly addressed the questions that everyone’s been dying to ask.

“We’re Not Hiding Anymore” — Bianca Confirms the Relationship

With a calm yet emotional tone, Bianca Manalo admitted:

“Yes, Rob and I are seeing each other. We’ve been spending time together, getting to know each other on a deeper level. We didn’t plan to make it public yet, but we also didn’t want to keep pretending.”

According to Bianca, their relationship began as a close friendship rooted in shared values and mutual respect — something that naturally grew into something more over time.

“I think what makes this different is that we started from a place of honesty. There were no games, no pressure. Just two people trying to find peace and connection,” she added.

A Relationship Built Under Scrutiny

Both Bianca and Rob have had their fair share of public scrutiny. Rob Gomez, known for his intense on-screen presence and occasionally controversial personal life, has been linked to various personalities in the past. Meanwhile, Bianca, as a public figure and former Binibining Pilipinas winner, has always tried to keep her private life low-key.

Fans and critics alike have had mixed reactions to their closeness — with some cheering them on, and others casting doubt. But now that Bianca has gone public, many have expressed support, praising her courage and sincerity.

Rob Gomez Responds

Shortly after Bianca’s revelation, Rob Gomez posted a short but sweet message on his social media:

“Real recognizes real. No more hiding. Proud of you, B.”

This seemingly simple gesture sent fans into overdrive, with hashtags like #BiancaAndRob and #RealLove trending shortly after.

What’s Next for the New Couple?

With the relationship now out in the open, fans are wondering: Will this lead to a joint project? Will the couple make more public appearances together? Or will they keep things low-key and private?

Bianca, for her part, emphasized that they are taking things slow:

“We’re not rushing anything. What matters most is that we’re happy and honest with ourselves and each other.”

The Public Reacts

Social media has exploded with reactions ranging from heartfelt support to sharp criticism. While some accuse the announcement of being a publicity stunt, many admire Bianca for owning her truth.

One user tweeted:

“In a world full of lies and showbiz games, Bianca Manalo just gave us something rare — honesty.”

A Bold Love in the Spotlight

In an industry where relationships are often crafted for the cameras, Bianca Manalo and Rob Gomez have chosen to step into the light — not as a perfect couple, but as two real people trying to make something work amidst the chaos of fame.

Only time will tell how this story unfolds. But one thing is certain: Bianca has found her voice — and she’s not afraid to use it.

Bianca Manalo speaks out about viral ‘issue’ linking her to Rob Gomez
Bianca Manalo has spoken out about the messages circulating on social media suggesting that she and her “Magandang Dilag” co-star Rob Gomez are in a relationship.

In a statement posted on Instagram, the beauty queen-actress insisted that there is no truth to the suspicions that she and Rob are romantically involved.

“Let me clear all the false rumors circulating on the internet,” she said. “Rob Gomez and I are friends and co-workers. He was going to bring Christmas gifts and I wanted to receive them early before I leave for the airport.”

Bianca added that parts of their exchange with Rob were removed from the screenshots posted.

“It is upsetting that our conversations were exposed without my consent, which is a breach of privacy and the cause of so much online bashing,” said Bianca. “It is obvious that parts of our conversation were deleted to create malicious insinuations.”

According to the actress, the allegations are painful for her and her loved ones.

“Let this controversy end so I can enjoy the rest of my time in Japan with my family,” she prayed.

“Let us spread love and the truth this holiday season. Merry Christmas, everyone,” added Bianca.

Bianca is Senator Win Gatchalian’s longtime girlfriend. Meanwhile, Rob is repairing his relationship with former partner and beauty queen Shaila Rebortera, with whom he has a daughter, Amelia.

Aside from Bianca, there was also a social media post that allegedly exchanged messages between Rob and “Magandang Dilag” lead star Herlene Budol.

In Herlene’s post on X (formerly Twitter), the actress asked, “Why am I being dragged?”

“When you are dedicated to work, you will create an issue!,” continued Herlene.

In an interview on “Fast Talk With Boy Abunda,” Rob said that he is single but dating someone.

Rob’s statement caused a rift in his relationship with Shaila, which he is now working on mending.

He apologized for what he saidSOMEONE TOOK MY CELLPHONE

In an interview with PEP.Ph, Rob said that someone took his cellphone and used it without his permission.

“Worse is that the person who took my phone posted pictures of mine in my own social media account pretending that I posted it with the intention of destroying my reputation,” the actor said.

“The videos as shown were among my friends and co-stars who was trying to cheer me up when I was going through a lot of hurdles in my life,” he added.
