Edo Manzano Blames Vilma Santos for What Happened to Luis Manzano

It seems that the family of actress Jessy Mendiola is currently facing a serious ordeal following the recent public revelation about what happened to her husband, Luis Manzano. This has dealt a heavy blow to Luis’ family—especially his mother, Governor Vilma Santos.

After Luis Manzano’s loss in the recent elections where he ran for Vice Governor of Batangas, news about his hospitalization suddenly broke out. According to a source, this was due to a serious illness Luis had been secretly battling for several years. Even his wife, Jessy Mendiola, reportedly had no idea about the grave condition her husband was enduring.

Many were shocked to learn about Luis’ condition, as he had shown no signs of illness, especially around his family and in public appearances. Afterward, rumors spread that Luis had urgently flown abroad to seek treatment for his worsening health.

The same source claimed that only a miracle could save the actor’s life. Later, news emerged that Luis Manzano had allegedly passed away, as his body could no longer handle the intensive treatment he was undergoing abroad in hopes of recovery.

According to reports, Luis’ father, actor and politician Edu Manzano, was enraged upon learning what had happened to his son. It was also noted that Edu was noticeably absent during Luis’ campaign in the recent election—reportedly because he strongly opposed his son’s decision to run for Vice Governor.

Edu is said to be deeply angry with Vilma Santos, whom he blames for encouraging Luis to run and become her running mate. He believes Vilma played a major role in pushing Luis into politics, which he sees as the root cause of all this. According to Edu, the pressure and stress may have been too much for his son to handle.

Sources say Edu collapsed in grief after hearing what had happened to Luis. He reportedly directs most of the blame toward Vilma, and his anger toward his son’s mother is intense. Meanwhile, Luis Manzano’s family remains silent about what truly happened and the real condition he faced.
