Gerald Anderson, a Kapamilya actor, recently broke his silence on persistent breakup rumors involving him and his long-time girlfriend, Julia Barretto.

The actor appeared as a guest on Toni Talks, hosted by Toni Gonzaga, where the two delved into his current relationship and the controversies surrounding it.

For weeks, speculation about the couple's alleged split has circulated online, with netizens even pointing to some subtle social media clues as their 'evidence.'

Neither Gerald nor Julia had publicly addressed the rumors—until now, with Gerald on the show.

"One of the reasons kung bakit pinag-uusapan ulit ang relationship ninyo is because everyone thinks na nag-break kayo ni Julia," Toni said during the interview. To this, Gerald replied firmly, "We're okay. Kanina nga hinatid ko siya sa airport, papunta sila ng Dubai. Kaya napaaga ako."

The actor went on to comment on the nature of public assumptions about celebrity relationships, saying, "Inuunahan ka nila, and then yun yung basehan. Naka-follow ba? Naka-unfollow ba? Andun yung pictures, wala yung pictures. Nakakalungkot lang na... yun na yung basehan ano?"

Despite the noise, Gerald remained calm, composed, and candid about his love life with Julia.

Eventually, Toni asked, "Paano mo i-differentiate yung relationship na meron ka ngayon?" Gerald shared that aside from it being the longest, it also feels deeper on his end: "I think 7 years ata ang agwat namin but si Julia is very mapagmahal, very motherly. Manang-mana siya kay Tita Marj, sa mommy niya. Super. Yung values na meron siya, yung love na binibigay niya, yung support na binibigay niya, it inspires me to be better and give her yung 100% always, yung best version ko."

The interview not only quelled the breakup rumors but also gave viewers a glimpse into a more grounded and heartfelt side of Gerald and his relationship with Julia that has stirred much buzz.
