SONA 2025: Sherwin Gatchalian arrives at Batasan alone
Senator Sherwin Gatchalian attended President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr.'s fourth State of the Nation Address (SONA) at the Batasang Pambansa Complex in Quezon City without Bianca Manalo this time. When GMA News Online asked Gatchalian why the Kapuso actress was absent, he simply replied "no comment." The last time Gatchalian attended SONA with Manalo was in 2024. In January, Gatchalian also refused to confirm nor deny rumors of their split, repeatedly responding "no comment" when pressed to talk about his relationship status with Manalo. In December 2023, when Manalo was dragged into a controversy with her "Magandang Dilag" co-star Rob Gomez, Manalo dismissed it as "false rumors circulating on the internet" with Gatchalian saying their relationship was "going strong."
