Kylie Padilla: Single by choice, focused on family and growth

Actress Kylie Padilla says she is single by choice, embracing a chapter of self-focus and motherhood while keeping her heart open to love in the future.

In a recent television interview, Kylie shared that while she is not closing her doors to romance, she has been honest with potential suitors about her current priorities.

For now, her energy is devoted to raising her sons, Alas and Axl, and rebuilding time she feels she owes them.

“Kailangan ko bumawi,” she said, emphasizing her commitment to being fully present for her children.

Beyond her personal life, Kylie is also looking forward to returning to the fantasy world that helped define her career. She confirmed her excitement over Amihan’s comeback in Sang’gre, a continuation of the beloved Encantadia universe.

The actress reflected on the emotional parallels between the storylines, recalling Amihan’s death in Encantadia in 2016 following the recent on-screen death of Terra, portrayed by Bianca Umali.

According to Kylie, Amihan’s role in Sang’gre will be pivotal, as the character is expected to guide and help the encantados in the unfolding narrative.

Kylie also expressed anticipation over reuniting with her fellow Encantadia 2016 Sang’gres, a moment that fans of the series have long awaited.

While she remains focused on family and career, Kylie’s journey in love has evolved over the years. In 2024, she confirmed being in a relationship with a non-showbiz partner.
