Barbie Forteza has revealed that she’s not closing her doors to love, months after confirming her breakup with longtime boyfriend Jak Roberto.

In Lhar Santiago’s report on GMA’s 24 Oras on Tuesday, the Kapuso actress was asked about her love life now that she’s fully booked and busy with her career. Barbie answered, “Hindi naman ako strict about it. Kung may magpaparamdam, wala namang problema. Pero sa ngayon, multo pa lang ’yung nagpaparamdam kasi sa akin.”

Barbie and Jak were together for seven years before she announced their split in January 2025, saying the decision was mutual and rooted in their personal growth and changing priorities.

Barbie said months ago: “Having you in my life was the happiest I had ever been. Seven wonderful years. A lot of laughs, a lot of ramen and so much love… good things also fall apart so that better things can come together."

"I am excited for what's to come for the both of us. You take care of yourself. May you find the love you deserve. I hope for everyone's understanding, and I wish you can help us put this matter to rest."

Despite the emotional weight of ending a long-term relationship, Barbie appears to be embracing this new chapter in her life with humor and grace.

Fans have continued to rally behind the actress, praising her maturity and positivity amid the changes in her personal life. While she’s not actively searching for romance, Barbie’s message is clear: she remains open to love — if and when it finds her again.

Barbie Forteza is a Kapuso actress known for her excellent performances in the series Nita Negrita, The Half Sisters, That's My Amboy, Inday Will Always Love You, Maria Clara at Ibarra, Pulang Araw, and many others. She entered showbiz in 2009, and her first project was to play the role of young Jodi in the local adaptation of the popular Korean drama Stairway to Heaven.

In another report, David Licauco opened up about his love team partner Barbie Forteza in a recent interview with Nelson Canlas for GMA Integrated News, addressing their close bond and the circumstances surrounding her recent breakup with actor Jak Roberto.

Previously, David aired his two cents about "three-month rule." The Kapuso actor was asked about the dating rule during a livestream for his new coffee business. In his response, the Pampansang Ginoo answered whether he believes in the rule. He further explained his answer by sharing his insightful thoughts on healing.
