Honestly, I was disappointed when actor Jericho Rosales and fashion influencer Kim Jones officially called it quits on the last days of January 2024.
It turned out that the couple already mutually agreed to live separately in 2019 amid the COVID-19 deadly spikes which they didn't mind at all.
They put their personal happiness behind in favor of altruism when they personally assisted and distributed "ayuda" to residents of Marikina at the height of the health emergency when nobody knew they were already uncoupled.
What really went wrong with the marriage of Jericho and Kim?
After 10 years of being married they just decided to separate.
Neither one of them was saying anything about the cause of their breakup to think that they are both intelligent and liberal persons not to mention their independent-mindedness.
Consider Echo's level-headedness and Kim's Western sensibilities as a British-born Australian.
Did they already fall out of love?
To think that there was no third person involved.
Or, did they just wake up one morning and in a wink eye decided to go separate ways?
Or incompatibility has set in after many years together?
Although a lot of people are still wondering about their being childless as a couple after more than five years of togetherness.
Is childlessness an issue in their split?
I suppose with Kim’s Western upbringing, she has a liberal concept about motherhood.
Echo could safely say he's vigorous since he has a son named Santino with a woman when he was still a bachelor?
What is admirable about the two is their professional attitude about things.
Even when they already severed their ties, they still manage to work with each other like photoshoots for product brands — Echo as model, Kim as photographer.
At the moment, both Jericho and Kim are enjoying their respective fields--Echo in singing and acting, Kim in modelling and vlogging.
Is Echo in a hurry to replace Kim in his heart?
At the rate things are going, he is taking his time but not necessarily lagging behind quick fixes on love.
He recently denied having courted Kathryn Bernardo although there are traces he's really after her.
Even if Alden Richards has overtaken him in so many instances together with the available lady, whereas there were only rare occasions that she and Jericho are shot together.
Alden and Kathryn are well-publicized precisely because both of them are single whereas Jericho is still very much married.
Age, for Kath and Echo, anyway, doesn't come as a gap which is just slim.
In terms of personality, they are compatible — both of them exude light-heartedness.
Alden might have the uppercut, though, for a reunion movie for KathDen is an advantage.
