Canlas opted not to expound on the breakup out of respect for the actress-TV host and the relationship they had. He nonetheless admitted that while the split was amicable, they are still in the process of healing.

“It’s not easy to just jump back into friends like that… But I’d be open to it, of course. The love will always be there,” he underscored.

During the interview, the actor also lamented the speculations surrounding their split, particularly allegations of him cheating on Ocampo.
