🔥🔴 Kathryn Bernardo Breaks Her Silence on Pregnancy Rumors and Her Alleged Romance with Mayor Mark Alcala 🔴🔥

July 23, 2025

MANILA, PHILIPPINES — Award-winning actress and beloved Kapamilya icon Kathryn Bernardo has finally spoken up amid swirling rumors about her supposed pregnancy and her alleged romantic connection with Lucena City Mayor Mark Alcala. In a firm and composed statement, Kathryn dismissed the gossip as completely false and asked for privacy, making it clear: she is not pregnant, and she is still single.

📌 Setting the Scene: Rumors Run Wild

Over the past few months, Kathryn has found herself at the center of public speculation. Fans, social media users, and even entertainment insiders have fueled gossip linking her to a high-profile romance with Mayor Mark Alcala — a name that has never before appeared in the actress’s public sphere until recently.

The speculation took a sharp turn when some claimed that Kathryn may be pregnant. Screenshots of anonymous direct messages, blind items, and vague sightings of Kathryn supposedly spending time with the local politician began circulating online, pushing her name once again to the top of trending lists — this time, not for her acting, but for alleged personal developments.

🚫 “I Am Not Pregnant”: Kathryn Speaks Out

At a recent press conference for her upcoming project, Kathryn directly addressed the controversy.

“Let me be very clear. I am not pregnant,” she said firmly. “I understand the public’s curiosity, but these rumors are completely false. They are hurtful not just to me, but also to my family.”

She added that while she values the love of her fans, she hopes they would learn to distinguish real news from baseless speculation.

“I’ve always been honest with my supporters. When there’s something important to share, I will share it. But please, let’s not believe every piece of gossip we read online.”

Her management team also released a formal statement, calling the pregnancy rumors “malicious, baseless, and defamatory.”

🧍 On Mayor Mark Alcala: “I Am Still Single”

Alongside the pregnancy chatter, Kathryn’s name has been repeatedly linked with Mayor Mark Alcala. Social media users pointed out that her mother had briefly followed the mayor’s Instagram account — only to unfollow shortly after, raising more eyebrows.

This, coupled with anonymous social media claims of the two being seen together in Bonifacio Global City, intensified the buzz. But Kathryn shut down the rumor with elegance:

“I am very happy, and yes — I’m still single,” she declared with a soft smile. “Mayor Alcala is a public servant, and I respect that. But there is no romantic relationship between us.”

She emphasized that while many assume she has moved on to a new relationship, she is currently focused on herself and her work.

🗣️ Public Reaction: A Divided Audience

As Kathryn’s statement spread online, fans and netizens had mixed reactions.

Some applauded her for her honesty and poise:

“Kath is the queen of class. She never needs to shout or create drama to clear things up,” one user commented.

Others, however, remained skeptical:

“She said she’s single, but why did her mom follow that mayor? Where there’s smoke, there’s fire,” wrote another.

Kathryn’s long-time fans — especially those who still support the KathNiel love team — expressed relief that she wasn’t pregnant, while others were curious about what may really be going on behind the scenes.

🧩 A Timeline of the Gossip

To understand how this all exploded, let’s break down how the rumors grew:

Early 2024: Kathryn confirms her breakup with Daniel Padilla after more than a decade together.
February 2025: Online gossip claims Kathryn was seen having dinner with a “young mayor,” later identified by fans as Mark Alcala.
March 2025: Her mother’s Instagram activity draws attention — the brief following of Mayor Alcala.
April 2025: Kathryn says in interviews that she is “still single and happy.”
June 2025: Rumors of a pregnancy begin to trend after a supposed “insider leak” on social media.

Despite all the talk, no photos, videos, or credible evidence have surfaced tying Kathryn and Mark together romantically — nor supporting the pregnancy rumor.

👩‍👧 Mommy Min Speaks: “She Has Many Suitors, But No Relationship”

Kathryn’s mother, Min Bernardo, was also asked about her daughter’s rumored love life.

“Kathryn is beautiful, kind, and grounded — of course there are men who admire her,” she said. “But she is not in a relationship right now. As a mother, I just remind her to take her time and choose wisely.”

She did not confirm nor deny the brief Instagram follow, only smiling when asked.

“Maybe it was a mistake. Or maybe fans just read too much into everything,” she said with a chuckle.

💔 Moving On from Daniel Padilla

The public continues to watch Kathryn’s love life closely, especially after her widely publicized breakup with Daniel Padilla in November 2023. The pair had been together for more than a decade, creating one of the most iconic love teams in Philippine showbiz history.

Their breakup was amicable, according to both parties, but it marked the end of an era. Since then, Kathryn has focused on healing, self-growth, and solo projects.

“I needed to rediscover myself outside of a relationship,” she said in an earlier interview. “For the first time in years, I’m living for me.”

🎬 Career Over Controversy

Despite the personal drama, Kathryn’s professional life has never been stronger. She’s one of the judges on Pilipinas Got Talent Season 7, where she continues to win hearts with her charisma, wit, and kindness.

She’s also involved in multiple film and endorsement projects, making 2025 one of her busiest and most successful years to date.

“Work has been my therapy,” she told reporters. “Being surrounded by good people and doing what I love reminds me of my purpose.”

🧠 The Bigger Picture: Fame, Privacy, and Pressure

Kathryn’s situation reflects a broader issue faced by many celebrities — the relentless pressure of public scrutiny. Even a simple social media interaction is dissected endlessly by fans and detractors alike.

In a world where visibility means vulnerability, Kathryn’s approach — calm, honest, and firm — sets an example of how to balance fame with dignity.

“Being in the spotlight doesn’t mean I owe people every part of my life,” she said. “I share what I choose to, and that boundary is important.”
