Jam Villanueva, the former girlfriend of actor Anthony Jennings, has sparked discussions online after reposting a TikTok video centered on self-forgiveness and healing from heartbreak.
The video, originally shared by @gmindset.official, features motivational speaker Jay Shetty. It highlights the struggles of moving on from painful experiences and emphasizes the importance of forgiving oneself for choosing to love someone who failed to reciprocate that love.
The TikTok video included lines that struck a chord with many netizens, such as: “Forgive yourself for letting someone make you feel like you were easy to let go. Forgive yourself for making them number one when you were just a second thought.”
“Forgive yourself for helping them heal, when all they did was hurt you. Forgive yourself for giving them your best, when all they gave you was their worst.”
“Because your heart is pure. And even though you don’t have them, you’ll always have that.”

Jam’s post quickly became a hot topic on social media, with netizens sharing mixed reactions.
Some were critical of her decision to address her personal struggles publicly: “Matured?!?!?! Innocent?!?!?! What she did after the breakup is opposite to these words you just mentioned! Lol. And I am an anti-washing-the-dirty-laundry in public.”
Others urged her to move forward: “Move on na Jam, nakaganti ka na. So happy na?”
However, many applauded her strength and resilience: “So brave si Jam. Yan ang mga gusto ko sa mga babae—palaban. Hindi nagpapaapi. Sana tularan lahat ng mga babae na nakaranas ng pag-cheat.”
Jam became the center of attention earlier this year after she revealed private conversations between her ex-boyfriend Anthony Jennings and his on-screen partner Maris Racal. The revelations fueled rumors of infidelity and sparked heated debates online.
Following the incident, both Anthony and Maris issued public apologies to those affected by the controversy.
