Ellen Adarna Addresses Derek Ramsay’s Absence at Daughter’s Celebration
ELLEN ADARNA – The socialite and actress has finally addressed the issue of why her husband, Derek Ramsay, was not present during the first birthday celebration of their daughter, baby Liana.
The topic arose after a netizen asked her about Derek’s absence in a recent Instagram post. Although the original comment can no longer be seen, several users had already taken screenshots showing Ellen’s direct response.
In her reply, originally written in Bisaya and later translated into Tagalog, Ellen explained that Derek was indeed invited to the party but chose not to attend. She said, “Sinendan naman siya ng imbitasyon, ewan ko kung bakit hindi siya pumunta.”
Her response immediately drew mixed reactions from netizens. Many were surprised that Derek had to be invited to his own daughter’s birthday, while others expressed sadness that he seemed uninvolved in the event. Some questioned why a father would need an invitation, suggesting that the two might no longer be living together. Others pointed out that parents typically host their child’s birthday together, hinting that there may be deeper issues between the couple.
Photos from the celebration showed Ellen’s mother, her brothers, her son Elias (with John Lloyd Cruz), and close friend Beauty Gonzalez in attendance—but Derek was noticeably absent. The grand birthday party quickly became a hot topic online, fueling more rumors that Ellen and Derek may have already separated.
Both Ellen and Derek have repeatedly denied breakup speculations in the past, but their current situation continues to raise questions. Despite the buzz, Ellen appears calm and focused on being a devoted, hands-on mother to baby Liana. Meanwhile, Derek has remained silent about the issue and has yet to release any statement regarding his absence from the event.
