Jefferson Fernando

Carla Abellana is stepping into a new chapter of her personal life—with an open heart and a fresh perspective on love.

At the GMA Gala 2025, the Kapuso actress confirmed that she is back in the dating scene. Speaking candidly in an interview with GMA News, Carla shared, “I’ve said it before—it’s about time I open myself to dating, meeting new people. So I decided to try it.”

And it seems her leap of faith is already taking shape. “There’s a second date. We’ll see if there’s gonna be more dates,” she added with a smile.

Carla recently sparked speculation among fans after posting a cozy, candlelit dinner photo featuring a mystery companion—his face hidden behind a menu.

The actress was previously married to actor Tom Rodriguez. Their divorce was finalized in 2022, and by 2023, Carla confirmed that she had fully moved on.
