In a stunning revelation that shook the entertainment world, actor Gerald Anderson and singer-actress Gigi De Lana finally broke their silence todayâconfirming long-standing rumors about their romantic past, secret relationship, and their four-year-old child.
The two appeared together in a press conference earlier today and bravely faced the media and their fans. With sincerity and without hesitation, they admitted the truth behind the viral blind items and speculations that had been swirling online for months.
đ A LOOK BACK: RUMORS THAT WOULDNâT DIE
Talks about a secret romance between Gerald and Gigi began around 2021, when the two starred in a hit iWantTFC series. Their chemistry on-screen sparked curiosityâespecially since Gerald was publicly dating actress Julia Barretto at the time.
Not long after, rumors circulated that Gerald and Gigi were more than just co-stars, particularly after being spotted together multiple times in private settings across Metro Manila.
Fueling the fire further, blind item queen Manay Cristy Fermin hinted recently that a handsome actor who just broke up with his long-time girlfriend had rekindled a relationship with a singer-actress from his past. Fans quickly connected the dots and names started to surfaceâGerald Anderson and Gigi De Lana topping the list.
đ€Ż THE SECRET CHILD
The most shocking part of todayâs confession wasnât just that they got back togetherâit was the revelation that they have a child together, kept completely out of the public eye for four years.
âYes po, totoo po,â Gerald said in a heartfelt statement.
âAko at si Gigi ay may relasyon. Inaamin ko po ito sa lahat. At totoo po, may anak kamiâhe is 4 years old now.â
Fans and reporters were stunned. For years, there were no leaks, no photos, no suspicions that Gerald and Gigi were raising a childâuntil now.
đ CLARIFYING THE JULIA ISSUE
Gerald also addressed the elephant in the roomâthe rumors that Gigi was the reason for his breakup with Julia Barretto:
âHindi po si Gigi ang dahilan ng paghihiwalay namin ni Julia. Labas po siya sa issue naming dalawa,â he emphasized.
According to Gerald, their past and current relationship with Gigi was a separate story, and he refused to let the public narrative turn Gigi into a scapegoat.
đ©âđŠâDONâT DRAG OUR CHILD INTO THISâ
Perhaps the most emotional part of their statement was a plea to the public:
âKung gusto niyo po kaming husgahan, kami na lang po. Huwag niyo pong idamay ang anak namin.â
Both Gigi and Gerald appeared visibly emotional when discussing their childâwho, until today, lived a completely private life.
They didnât go into details about the childâs upbringing, schooling, or current family arrangement, but both parents emphasized that their top priority now is the welfare and happiness of their son.
đ· FLASHBACK: THE CLUES WERE THERE
Looking back, some netizens are now claiming the signs were hiding in plain sight:
2021: Their on-screen chemistry felt âtoo realâ, according to fans.
2022â2023: A noticeable distance between Gerald and Julia was observed.
2024: Gigi was spotted several times in private events, often without revealing much about her personal life.
Early 2025: Manay Cristyâs blind item goes viral.
