SHERWIN GATCHALIAN and BIANCA MANALO – The couple reunited in Vancouver, Canada, amid the controversy involving the actress.
Despite facing criticism in connection with the controversy involving his longtime girlfriend, the senator remains steadfast in their relationship. On December 29, 2023, the senator shared a photo on his Instagram account with Bianca, expressing his happiness at being reunited with her. The couple is currently in Vancouver, Canada.
Ruffa Gutierrez, a friend of the senator, commented on his post, playfully suggesting marriage with, “Naks!! Kasalan na! @stgatchalian74 @biancamanalo.”
Senator Gatchalian openly stands by his girlfriend amidst her involvement in the issue concerning alleged infidelity with Rob Gomez, Bianca’s co-star in the defunct GMA afternoon series “Magandang Dilag.” Apart from Bianca, another personality implicated in the controversy is Herlene Budol, whose private conversations with Rob were exposed and deemed sensitive.
The issue erupted while Bianca was in Tokyo, Japan, with her family for a vacation. She vehemently denied any connection to Rob after screenshots of her private messages with the actor surfaced. Despite returning to the Philippines, Bianca immediately flew to Vancouver, Canada, to be with Sherwin.
Throughout the controversy, Senator Gatchalian has remained unfazed, considering the reports as fake news and reaffirming his commitment to their relationship. The couple, who celebrated their five-year anniversary in November 2023, continues to weather the storm of public scrutiny.
Meanwhile, he remained unfazed amid the controversy he’s facing. In fact, after the conversation went viral online, he claimed that his phone at the time the messages were leaked was not in his possession. Some netizens believe that it was Shaila Rebortera who posted the conversations.
Aside from Bianca and Herlene, a former Star Magic artist was also implicated with Rob. Apparently, as soon as she drew the ire of netizens, she decided to deactivate her Instagram account. This might have kept her away from the bashing of netizens.
