MANILA — Former “Pinoy Big Brother” housemate Fumiya Sankai and Kate Valdez have announced the end of their romantic relationship.
The two confirmed their split through a joint statement released on Instagram on Sunday.
“Following considerable thought, we have mutually decided to go our separate ways. This decision was made with respect, understanding, and care for one another,” the two shared.
Sankai and Valdez also shared that their breakup is necessary for them to grow individually, giving them the time and space to heal and to better themselves.
