In a display of subtle shade, former flames Daniel Padilla and Kathryn Bernardo have embarked on separate adventures, seemingly sending cryptic messages to their fans through songs that appear to carry hidden meanings aimed at each other.

It all began with Daniel’s going viral singing in Siargao, where the actor-turned-singer charmed fans and strangers at a local music café with his rendition of Rivermaya’s timeless classic, “Hinahanap-Hanap Kita.”

This sparked speculation among many, questioning whether the song choice was intended as a message for Kathryn or simply a song he picked for fun.

Clad in a laid-back ensemble of a casual t-shirt and bucket hat, Daniel’s smooth vocals elicited cheers and applause, setting social media abuzz since Feb. 1.

But the theatrics didn’t stop there; Daniel was later captured on video jamming with his sister Magui to Mayonnaise’s hit “Jopay,” adding another layer to the narrative.

Meanwhile, across the globe in Melbourne, Australia, Kathryn Bernardo was making her own statement at Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour” concert.

Documented in a captivating Instagram Story shared by her friend Arisse de Santos, Kathryn belted out Swift’s anthem “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together,” leaving her fans back home wondering if that was her cryptic response to Daniel’s rendition of “Hinahanap-hanap Kita”.

For Kathryn, this trip Down Under symbolized more than just a concert experience; it marked her first solo travel abroad, signifying a newfound sense of independence and adventure.

Sharing glimpses of her journey through a series of Instagram posts, Kathryn exuded confidence and style, navigating airport terminals and exploring new horizons in her trademark fashion-forward attire.

Their solo escapades come on the heels of their highly publicized breakup last October, ending their 11-year relationship.

Since then, both Kathryn and Daniel have been navigating life’s twists and turns, with Kathryn making bold statements through her striking ginger hairstyle and recent decision to unfollow Daniel on Instagram, signaling a commitment to personal growth and self-discovery in this new chapter of her life.
