Martha Blythe Sets the Record Straight on Kathryn Bernardo Photo Speculations
MARTHA BLYTHE – A production assistant on Director Cathy Garcia Sampana’s team, has addressed rumors surrounding a viral photo of Kathryn Bernardo.
In a post, assistant director Kizzy Esguerra clarified that she is Martha Blythe, responding to speculations tied to the photo, which showed Kathryn standing in front of a door labeled “Harbourside 58” and “Martha Blythe.” The rumors linked the image to Andrea Brillantes, whose nickname “Blythe” sparked speculation about a possible connection to a past issue involving Kathryn and Daniel Padilla.
The issue between Andrea Brillantes, Kathryn Bernardo, and Daniel Padilla revolves around a cheating incident involving Daniel and Andrea. According to sources, Andrea confessed to Kathryn that she and Daniel had an affair in November 2021, which led to the breakdown of Kathryn and Daniel’s relationship after 11 years together.
Andrea reportedly reached out to Kathryn, admitted to the affair, and even showed Kathryn the text exchanges between her and Daniel. Despite being in a “cool-off” phase with her then-boyfriend Seth Fedelin, Andrea’s actions caused significant strain in her relationship with both Daniel and Kathryn. Kathryn was devastated by this revelation, as Daniel was her first boyfriend, and they had shared a long and public love story.
Kathryn ultimately decided to end the relationship with Daniel, despite still having feelings for him, as the trust was irreparably damaged. Both Kathryn and Daniel later confirmed their breakup in late November 2023, marking the end of the iconic KathNiel love team.
Meanwhile, Kathryn’s film Hello Love Again continues to break records, becoming the highest-grossing Filipino film and the first to surpass ₱1 billion in earnings. The movie, starring Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards, tells the story of Joy and Ethan as they reunite in Canada and discover how much they’ve changed. Directed by Cathy Garcia-Sampana, the film follows the success of the 2019 hit Hello, Love, Goodbye.
