On the Star Magic Ball last August 30, Dionne Monsanto and Alex Anselmuccio confirmed in separate interviews with ABS-CBN.com that they have already broken up after nine months of being together. Dionne said that they each reached the point where their relationship was no longer a priority. “We didn’t have time for each other. He has his soccer thing and work while I have tapings and I also wanted to spend more time with my family.”

When asked if their age gap was also a factor since Alex is four years her junior, the 23-year-old actress replied no. “It has never been a problem for us because he’s very mature for his age. It was just time. It was a mutual decision and we parted on good terms a month ago. In fact, I just did his makeup for tonight,” she shared.

Alex, on the other hand revealed, that he and Dionne didn’t get along anymore and that their personal differences caught up with them in the end. “She’s right when she said that it’s not the age gap because it doesn’t really matter in a relationship. We were just fighting too much about small things like I am so forgetful and other stuff. It’s not the first time we broke up. We used to break up once or twice but that was definitely the last one,” he recalled. But he agreed that it was a tough decision to make because they still have feelings for each other. “I have a feeling that we could still be lovers again in the future. But right now, I would prefer to have my own time and if ever, I would really think over before getting into a new relationship,” he stated.
