[FACT-CHECKED REPORT] Vilma Santos Addresses Speculations Involving Jessy Mendiola and Luis Manzano: Here’s What She Actually Said

Blind Item University - YouTube

Manila, Philippines — Actress and Batangas Representative Vilma Santos-Recto has found herself at the center of swirling online rumors after several social media posts and YouTube videos alleged that she made a “strong revelation” regarding her daughter-in-law, actress Jessy Mendiola, and her son Luis Manzano.

These claims, often accompanied by dramatic thumbnails and sensational headlines, have prompted thousands of reactions and shares. However, based on verified public appearances and official statements, there is currently no confirmed report of Vilma Santos making any “matinding rebelasyon” (serious revelation) against Jessy Mendiola.

What Is Actually Confirmed?

In recent interviews and online posts, Vilma Santos has consistently expressed love and support for both Luis and Jessy. She previously shared joy over the birth of their daughter, Isabella Rose (also affectionately called “Peanut”), and said she was proud of how Luis has embraced fatherhood.

When asked about her relationship with Jessy, Vilma has referred to her as part of the family and has praised her for being a good mother and wife. There has been no official statement indicating a rift or confrontation between the two.

Origin of the Rumor

The viral claim appears to have started from speculative YouTube vlogs and posts that lack credible sourcing. These videos often blend unrelated clips of Vilma Santos with misleading titles to create the illusion of drama or conflict. Many of them feature edited or recycled interviews taken out of context.

Why This Matters

Misinformation like this is not only misleading to the public but can also negatively affect the individuals involved — in this case, a well-known family in Philippine showbiz who have chosen to maintain their private life with dignity and respect.

Call for Responsible Viewing

As public figures, Vilma Santos, Luis Manzano, and Jessy Mendiola are no strangers to attention. However, fans and netizens are encouraged to verify information before sharing, and to refrain from spreading speculation that could cause unwarranted tension or misunderstanding.
