Klea Pineda releases statement after confirming breakup with Katrice Kierulf
Sharing black-and-white photos of the two of them, the Kapuso actress wrote the time they had together might be short, but she was happy during those three years together.
'Yes, Kat and I decided to end our relationship," Klea said. "Masakit, mahirap. Masyadong maganda ang samahan namin, Pakiramdam ko parang hindi lang tatlong taon 'yung samahan namin sa dami ng nangyari."
The actress added that Katrice was there in both good and bad times, 'at higit sa lahat siya yung taong minahal ako sa mga panahon na hindi ko kayang mahalin ang sarili ko. Naging inspirasyon at lakas ko sa mga laban sa buhay.'
Klea thanked her followers for supporting her and Kat throughout their relationship. She also thanked her family, who was likewise hurt by the breakup, for accepting Katrice as their own child.
Both she and Katrice fought for and tried to fix their relationship, Klea said.
'Tumatanda na tayo at may mga bagay na mas kailangan unahin o bigyan ng pansin. Kinailangan na lang talaga tanggapin na wala na kaming magagawa kundi tapusin na lang talaga ang relasyon namin.'
To conclude her statement, Klea left a message for Katrice.
'To Katrice, naging masaya naman tayo diba? Napakadami natin magagandang nagawa magkasama at pagsubok na nalagpasan na hindi ko gugustuhin kalimutan kahit kailan. Nakatatak lahat yun sa puso at isip ko.'
Klea said she has a lot to thank Katrice for and that she will always support her no matter what.
'Hindi ko alam kung swerte ba ako dahil nakilala kita at naging parte ka ng buhay ko o malas kasi binigay ka nga sa akin pero may hangganan din naman,' Klea said.
'Salamat sa pagmamahal na binigay mo sa akin, Kat. Lagi mong tatandaan na kahit anong mangyari, hindi mawawala pagmamahal ko sayo,' she added.
Klea confirmed that she and Katrice have split on Friday's episode of 'Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.'
The breakup happened a month ago and was a mutual decision, Klea said, adding that she and Katrice needed to focus on themselves.
Klea came out as gay in March 2023 during her 24th birthday.
She met Katrice through TikTok and publicly introduced her on 'Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.'
In January, Klea and Katrice marked their third anniversary. Kartice also threw Klea a surprise birthday party in March.
