“Sa lahat po ng nagtatanong kung totoo bang hiwalay na kami ni Phil, Totoo po,” Angel said. “Sana po maintindihan nyo kung hindi na po namin sasabihin ang dahilan.”

The 28-year-old actress said on her statement that the decision to break up was mutual, and that separated amicably.

It can be remembered that Angel and Phil’s love story also began via the micro-blogging site Twitter. In February of 2011, football player Phil asked Angel out on a date for Valentine’s Day via a tweet. The actress declined, saying she work on that day, but it paved the way of the eventual couple’s romance.

Phil admitted he and Angel are officially a couple in May of 2012, after months of being unable to label their relationship.

In a report published in the local tabloid Abante-Tonite, showbiz scribe Francis Simeon said Angel and Phil’s relationship ended three weeks ago.

Here is Angel’s complete “official statement” regarding the breakup as posted on her Twitter account:

“This is my official statement: Sa mga naglalabasang balita kung saan na-quote po na nag pa-interview ako, hindi po ito totoo. Wala pa po akong nakakausap about the issue dahil sa totoo lang po hindi ko pa ho kayang kumausap ng kahit sino sa press at nag si-sink in pa lang po samin ngayon ang lahat ng ito.”

“Pasensya na po. Dalawa pa lang po ang nakausap ko, Si Manay Ethel na manager ko at si Darla na sinagot ko lang po ang text sa akin dahil naramdaman ko ang sincerity niya although hindi po ako directly nagsalita about sa amin ni Phil. It was also off the record.”

“Sa lahat po ng nagtatanong kung totoo bang hiwalay na kami ni Phil, Totoo po. Sana po maintindihan nyo kung hindi na po namin sasabihin ang dahilan..pero maayos po kaming naghiwalay at mutual decision po ito.”

“Pasensya na po kung hindi po kami makasagot agad tungkol sa status ng aming relasyon. Lalong-lalo na po sa mga sumuporta sa aming dalawa. Hindi po namin kayo binalewala... mahirap lang po talaga kung nasa ganitong sitwasyon. Nagulat na lang kami na naunahan na kami ng balita bago pa man kami makapagusap uli.”

“Salamat po sa lahat ng sumubaybay at sumuporta sa journey namin ni Phil lalo na ho dito sa twitter. Hinding-hindi po namin malilimutan.”
