Rocco reacts to speculations 

Did Rocco Nacino spend the money he and Lovi Poe saved up? A writer for a vernacular tabloid said that it was the reason the couple broke up.

According to the writer, while the couple is not admitting they are going on their own separate ways, their fans have accepted their status. In the same article, the writer hints that there’s a third party, another girl the actor is pursuing even when he and Lovi were still together.

And add to that, the couple has a joint account which Rocco has been withdrawing from and spending the money for his personal use.

Reading this report, the actor reacted instantly and posted on his Instagram account: “Been receiving news about me stealing money from a joint account and having a third party in our relationship. No joint account. No third party. I have the utmost respect for Lovi. Please do respect the privacy that we both request right now. Thank you.”

In a failed relationship, it is usually the male that gets the brunt, while the female gets all the sympathies.

But, in the first place, have Lovi Poe and Rocco Nacino called it quits?

The last time I talked to either of them they were simply saying they have become too focused on their respective careers to be seen together most of the time. Poe is saddled with assignments – indie film projects, endorsement deals, and another soap opera in the offing – while Nacino; apart from his business ventures (a franchise of Rufo’s and a boxing gym) is also busy shooting several indie films apart from another planned soap opera for the Kapuso network.

They were together in Beautiful Strangers, which bids adieu tonight, but they will not be together in the end. Perhaps this fans the speculation that they have also bid goodbye to each other.

But, let’s give Rocco and Lovi space, as they say. Maybe they need to re-think how their relationship is affecting their career. Most of all, respect for their privacy is what these actors are requesting, most especially from the press. Can we just give it to them?
