Netizens are once again in detective mode after spotting that celebrity couple Cristine Reyes and Marco Gumabao have unfollowed each other on Instagram — fueling fresh speculation that the two may have gone their separate ways.
Neither Cristine nor Marco has posted any updates on their respective social media accounts, leaving fans guessing. The most recent public update from Cristine was about the passing of her adoptive father, Demetrio Pascual, just last week.
This isn’t the first time breakup rumors have hounded the couple. In August 2024, Cristine deactivated her Instagram account on the day of Marco’s 30th birthday — causing fans to worry about the state of their relationship. However, Cristine’s sister, Ara Mina, quickly dispelled the rumors, explaining: “Ayaw niya muna mag-social media… Ok sila, walang problem, she’s concentrating lang sa movie na ginagawa niya,” referring to Cristine’s then-upcoming film The Kingdom, an MMFF 2024 entry.
Two days later, Cristine was back online and even greeted Marco with a sweet birthday post featuring a cozy photo of them together, along with a caption celebrating their shared birthday.
But this latest unfollowing — happening on April 24, 2025 — has once again stirred speculation. It’s also the second celebrity couple to make headlines the same day for a similar reason.
Earlier, fans noticed that Sofia Andres and Daniel Miranda also unfollowed each other on Instagram, sparking buzz about a possible breakup.
Interestingly, eagle-eyed fans observed that Cristine has wiped her feed of photos with Marco, while the actor — who is now reportedly running for a political position in Bicol — still has pictures of them on his account. This has led to whispers online that politics may have played a role in the rumored split.
As of now, both Cristine and Marco have yet to issue any official statements about their current relationship status. But with multiple celeb couples unfollowing each other on the same day, fans can’t help but ask: Is showbiz love on the rocks?
