MANILA, Philippines — Veteran actress Cherry Pie Picache confirmed that she and Edu Manzano have broken up.
In an interview with the media on the sidelines of the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) entry "Firefly," a reporter asked Cherry Pie how her heart is.
"Hindi ba sa edad kong ito ngayon, I cannot depend my happiness anymore on somebody else, hindi ba? Besides dapat din ay buo ako or whatever or kumpleto ako kung magmamahal ako — ulit," she said.
"We are very good friends, he is a very good person. We are very good friends. We will always love each other, so 'yon. ....I think we are okay naman. I think we will always love each other and 'yun nga we are friends, we are good friends," she added.
Cherry Pie also said that she is open to falling in love with someone again.
"Pero habang wala, eh di masaya ka sa sa sarili mo. Lalo na after nu'ng pandemic, hindi ba 'yung self love? 'Yung hindi mo na pwedeng iasa 'yung kaligayahan mo o kabuluhan mo sa ibang tao. Nasa sa iyo," she said.
"And ako personally I can't complain. God has been blessing me so much. Tapos tayo as tayo, 'yung magmahalan lang, magtulungan na lang, hindi ba? We've learned so much from the pandemic. So ngayon may partner o wala, ayan na, may partner o wala, okay lang, hindi ba? Let's be grateful for everyday," she added.
Cherry Pie and Edu rekindled their love after two decades when they joined the ABS-CBN teleserye “Marry Me, Marry You.”
They admitted their relationship in December 2021.
