The dating history of Luis Manzano

The dating history of Luis Manzano

- Luis Manzano, one of ABS-CBN’s primetime hosts, is mostly known for his hosting expertise but his colorful love life didn’t escape the media’s attention

- Manzano, in most of his relationships, chose to stay mum on the reason why his relationships didn’t work out

- Aside from his current rumored girlfriend, Jessy Mendiola, he was previously committed to Jennylyn Mercado and Angel Locsin among others

A lot easily assumed that Luis Manzano already has a spot reserved for him in the showbiz industry way before he even considered joining. It’s no wonder given that his parents are no other than the ‘Star for All Seasons’ Vilma Santos-Recto and actor Edu Manzano.

Now as a known TV host and actor, Manzano has proved that he can carve a spot for himself with his talent, charm, and wit. But other than his hosting stints, the 35-year old is always on the headlines for his leading ladies in real life.

Take a look on the lucky ladies he has dated throughout the years.

3. Jennylyn Mercado (2011 – 2013)

Belonging in rival stations didn’t hinder Jennylyn Mercado to be in a relationship with the TV host in 2011. Mercado, a single mother of one, met Manzano through Jiu Jitsu training. The pair even traveled together locally and internationally. Nevertheless, it was in 2013 when rumors of their separation floated as Manzano flew alone instead of a supposed trip together.

According to showbiz writer, Ricky Lo, the two simply fell out of love and no third party was involved.

4. Angel Locsin (2008 – 2009, 2014- 2016)

Perhaps, the longest and most controversial tie in the list was the actor’s involvement with actress Angel Locsin.

After being spotted on numerous occasions, the pair confirmed their status in 2008. A year after, while refusing to disclose the reason, the two parted ways. Manzano didn’t hide his intentions of winning Locsin back but it wasn’t until in 2014 that they started dating again.

During the course of their relationship, Locsin admitted on a local entertainment show that she was diagnosed with a disc bulge. In the said interview, she happily commended her boyfriend’s support for her as she underwent an operation in Singapore. Marriage talks were even discussed but on the first month of 2016, in Ricky Lo’s Funfare column, their separation surprised a lot of people.
