VIDEO: Heart Evangelista’s Emotional Reunion W/ Ex-BF Daniel Matsunaga’s Sister

Heart Evangelista & Vanessa Matsunaga Share Heartfelt Moment After Years Apart

HEART EVANGELISTA – In a touching moment caught on video, Heart Evangelista shared an emotional reunion with Vanessa Matsunaga, sister of her ex-boyfriend Daniel Matsunaga.

Heart Evangelista, a celebrated name in Philippine entertainment and fashion, has long captivated the public not only with her style and talent but also with her romantic life. From high-profile relationships to a political marriage, her journey in love has been as compelling as her career.

In the early 2000s, Heart was in a widely publicized relationship with actor Jericho Rosales. Their romance lasted several years and was adored by fans. However, the couple parted ways in 2008, reportedly due to career demands and disapproval from Heart’s family.

By 2010, rumors swirled about Heart’s possible relationship with Brazilian-Japanese model Daniel Matsunaga. Though never officially confirmed, the two were often seen together and were speculated to have dated until around 2012.

Heart later found lasting love with Francis “Chiz” Escudero, a respected Filipino senator. Their courtship began in 2012 and culminated in marriage, despite initial resistance from Heart’s parents. Over time, her family came to accept their union, and the couple has since been in the public eye as one of the country’s most watched pairs. While they have no children, Heart has been open about her fertility struggles and her desire to become a mother.

In recent years, especially around 2022, speculation about the state of Heart and Chiz’s marriage surfaced when she spoke about personal challenges. Despite these rumors, Heart clarified that they were working through their issues and no official separation occurred.

The two shared a heartfelt hug and brief conversation before Heart proceeded to the ABS-CBN Ball, where she also reconnected with former co-stars.

Heart continues to live under the spotlight, balancing public curiosity with personal grace—a testament to her enduring presence in both love and life.
