For Kapamilya star Nadine Lustre, her current relationship with Filipino-French businessman Chris Bariou is more than just a chapter—it is likely the final one in her dating life. In a deeply personal vlog appearance on Vice Ganda's YouTube channel last January 9, 2026, the actress made a surprising revelation about her future.

Nadine shared that she has reached a level of commitment where she can no longer see herself starting over with someone else. “Pag nag-break pa tayo, hindi na ako magdyu-dyowa,” she recalled telling Chris directly. For her, Chris is the partner who fits her life perfectly. “He isn’t perfect, but he is perfect for me,” she added, describing him as her real-life "Prince Charming."

The couple, who have been together for several years, currently balance their time between show business and their various ventures in Siargao. They are often seen together championing causes like animal welfare and environmental preservation. Nadine expressed that while she sees Chris as a life partner, they are not rushing to walk down the aisle. Currently, she is prioritizing her career and has previously mentioned that she does not yet feel ready for the responsibilities of motherhood.

Reflecting on her journey, Nadine also touched upon how she has changed as a partner. She admitted that she used to be a “praning” (paranoid) girlfriend in her younger years. She attributed this to past immaturity and deep-seated insecurities that had little to do with her actual relationships. “As I became older, I learned to value the vital things in my life,” she explained, noting that the paranoia has finally faded into the background.

Nadine Lustre and Christophe Bariou first made headlines as a couple in 2021 after being spotted together in Siargao. Chris, a successful entrepreneur, is the founder and managing director of Maison Bukana, a luxury resort on the island. Their relationship has been marked by a shared love for the "island life" and a quiet, low-key dynamic away from the usual showbiz "love team" culture. Over the years, they have successfully merged their personal lives with business ventures, making them one of the most stable and admired pairs in the industry today.
