The godfather of celebrity couple Jericho Rosales and Kim Jones, Ricco Ocampo, has confirmed in a statement sent to ABS-CBN News that the two are no longer together.
According to Ocampo’s statement, Jericho and Kim broke up in 2019 but have maintained a strong and healthy friendship since.
“While the friendship between the two remains, they have decided it is time to lead separate lives. They are encouraging each other to grow, albeit in different directions. It was a mutual decision, an amicable separation, dealt with grace and maturity by both parties,” he wrote. “The two are filled with gratitude for the memories they’ve made together and the lessons they’ve learned. They have journeyed through the separation with the utmost respect and care toward one another precisely because Echo and Kim are the best of friends and love each other like family.”
He assured fans that it had been an amicable split and that the two “only wish the best for each other.”
“They are incredibly grateful for those who have supported them throughout the years, and appreciate the respect of their privacy during this time,” the statement ended.
Ocampo added that Jericho and Kim are currently working on a film together with Kim as the writer, director, and actor while Jericho is producing it.
They married in 2014 at a beautiful beach wedding at Shangri-La Boracay.
