MANILA \u2013 Jennylyn Mercado recently opened up about her breakup with Luis Manzano and how she manages being a single mom to son Alex Jazz.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe because we\u2019re not really meant for each other,\u201d said Mercado referring to her breakup with Manzano during an interview.<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cI\u2019m happy that he is now in a relationship. That\u2019s life \u2013 you really have to be strong. I believe that the right time and moment will come for me to be in a relationship once again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mercado and Manzano parted ways in October 2013 after being together for two years. Both did not share the reason behind their split.<\/p>\n

The same month that they broke up, Mercado\u2019s ex-girlfriend Angel Locsin separated from Filipino-British football player Phil Younghusband.<\/p>\n

Manzano and Locsin admitted their relationship in February this year.<\/p>\n

Since then, Mercado has been avoiding answering any questions about Manzano but wished him good luck about his plans of settling down with Locsin.<\/p>\n

Locsin then responded by saying, \u201cThank you. Happy for you. I guess I have nothing more to say, but thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Mercado shared that she is now focusing all her attention on her six-year-old son with former boyfriend Patrick Garcia, Alex Jazz.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d like to believe that I\u2019m able to raise him well. I want him to grow up as someone who\u2019s used to living a simple life,\u201d said Mercado.<\/p>\n

She also shared that Alex Jazz has started undergoing therapy because of speech delay. She said that there have been improvements to her son.<\/p>\n

When asked if she gets financial support from Garcia, Mercado said no.<\/p>\n

But while the two remained estranged for some time, Mercado claimed that they have become amicable. As a matter of fact, she spent a day with Garcia\u2019s fianc\u00e9 together with their respective children.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
