However, the couple decided  to postpone their wedding following the passing of Andi’s mother, Jaclyn Jose, last March.</p><p>Before announcing the postponement, the couple were also embroiled in a separation rumor which Andi addressed and put a stop to all the negative comments about her relationship with her partner on her personal social media account.</p><p>“I literally [just] went on a vacation with my brother and our kids, and come home to find out, through the internet, that I’ve just been separated,” she wrote.</p><div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2024/5/7/andi-eigenmann-shrugs-off-separation-rumors-with-philmar-alipayo-1026"><strong>READ: Andi Eigenmann shrugs off separation rumors with Philmar Alipayo<br/></strong></a></div><p>“The internet didn’t seem to like that I was grieving the loss of my nanay. Apparently, according to them, I had been faking my sadness about it all along. (Not enough social media posts perhaps?) Due to this, the internet has decided that the reason for my sadness is not that I have recently been an orphan but in fact, a divorcee (even if I had never been married). Helpppp,” she continued.</p>
