Destiny has its own way of manifestation.
Society and its people are only two of the determinants of making things happen.
In the case of the reunion of former married couple Jericho Rosales and Kim Jones, the ongoing 77th Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France is the place where destiny occurs.
Jericho and Kim, who mutually agreed to publicize their separation early on this year, were meant to see each other in the prestigious film event.
Rosales and Jones didn't mince words to be photographed by someone with film producer and lawyer Joji Alonso right in the thick of things of Cannes where many Filipino film artists gathered and are still gathering to show their wares.
The erstwhile couple was a perfect picture of freedom in a world of pseudo-lovers chained to sycophancy, hypocrisy, grandstanding and perfidy.
Friendship no matter the cause is the only guarantee of Kim and Echo's sincerity between the public and themselves.
Jones was in 2024 as an international artist-photographer while Rosales was there to exhibit his acting piece in "Sellblock," a series which was presented at the MIPTV, a pre-77th Cannes gathering of producers and other stakeholders of new series for the film market.
Echo and Kim also watched together the newest Nicolas Cage caper "The Surfer" in its global premiere.
