‘Tis the season to be single, and it seems our Pinoy celebrities are taking the breakup sleigh ride with more enthusiasm than Santa on Christmas Eve. Forget about decking the halls; these stars are busy decking the relationship halls with “it’s over” banners.

Andrea Brillantes and Ricci Rivero decided that their love story was a bit too telenovela, opting for a plot twist even the scriptwriters couldn’t see coming. Meanwhile, Miles Ocampo and Elijah Canlas may have exchanged more goodbyes than Christmas gifts. It’s a star-studded separation party as Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla bid adieu, Richard Gutierrez and Sarah Lahbati uncouple, and Kim Chiu and Xian Lim give a new meaning to “Jingle Bell Rock.”

It seems the allure of breaking free during the holidays is irresistible—perhaps mistletoe is replaced with the spirit of independence.

Well what about Win Gatchalian’s relationship status? Let’s not venture into that coal-filled stocking. After all, ’tis the season for self-discovery, and these celebrities are unwrapping the gift of solitude with gusto.
