In her latest vlog, Ivana opened up about how she hasn’t really moved on from her past relationship with an ex who she revealed in previous interviews was a serial cheater. It’s because of her experience that she’s hesitant to jump into another relationship.
“Sobrang maingat ako ngayon sa puso ko, so hindi siya porke’t kinikilig ako nang kaunti, ibibigay ko na agad ang puso ko. I think process siya. Kailangan na ma-feel ko na, ‘Ay, gusto ko na ang taong ‘to.’ At gusto rin niya ang pamilya ko,” she said.
She also revealed her back tattoo, a butterfly, which was a symbol of rebirth and moving on from hurtful experiences. She explained, “After ko masaktan doon sa ex ko, sabi ko, ‘From now on, hindi ko na ibibigay agad ang puso ko.’ Oo, kikiligin ako. Oo, magiging open pa rin ako sa mga manliligaw, pero hindi ko agad ibibigay buong puso ko.”
“Siguro, ligawan mo muna ako, ligawan mo muna ang pamilya ko, and then we’ll see. I think my heart is too broken to just give it away again,” she added.

When asked where Loonyo currently stood in her life, Ivana did not confirm nor deny the possibility of them becoming a real-life couple but, rather, she expressed her gratitude towards him for being a part of her life.
“Para sa akin, wala namang masama na magkaroon ka ng special someone, or someone na magpapasaya sa ‘yo araw-araw in small ways,” she said.
“Sobrang naa-appreciate ko si DJ Loonyo kasi ang dami kong natututunan sa kaniya. Sobrang bait niya at sobrang nakaka-inspire siya, hindi lang sa akin, kung ‘di sa maraming tao,” she added.
