Kim Chiu opens up about love and loss

- Joseph Peter Gonzales

ACTRESS and TV host Kim Chiu opened up about her current relationsh­ip status in a recent interview. “It feels a little empty right now, but that’s okay,” she admitted. “I see it as part of life and growing up.”

Known for being caring and compassion­ate towards the people she loves whether it’s her family or boyfriend, does she consider herself loveable?

“Absolutely!” she replied. “That’s why I have such an abundance of patience and give my all in relationsh­ips. In the end, I won’t have regrets, just lessons learned.”

While both of her past relationsh­ips, one lasting five years and the other eleven, haven’t worked out, Kim remains optimistic.

“Maybe someday,” she said thoughtful­ly. “Not today, not tomorrow, not yesterday. I don’t know when, but growing up, I’ve always been used to giving love freely.”

“Maybe I should shorten the next one,” she said in jest.

The actress dreams of finding the right partner, “Someone who will give me his unconditio­nal love.”

Her last relationsh­ip was with fellow actor Xian Lim. When asked about the rumors of his alleged involvemen­t with film producer Iris Lee, Kim said, “Honestly, I have no idea about that.”

Naturally, fans are curious about the reason behind their breakup. “I can’t divulge details,” she explained. “He might get upset. All I can say is it was a mutual decision. We both wanted to move on.”

“It’s very personal,” Chiu concluded. “You just have to accept that there are things you don’t have control over anymore. You can’t force something that’s not meant to be.”
