There has been no official statement from Kathryn Bernardo or Daniel Padilla regarding the rumor that Daniel “forbade” Kathryn from doing a sequel to Hello, Love, Goodbye. However, this issue has been controversial and discussed widely on social media, but it seems to be based on speculation and unverified information.
The 2019 film Hello, Love, Goodbye, which starred Kathryn and Daniel (KathNiel), became a blockbuster hit, earning massive success at the box office and becoming one of the highest-grossing Filipino films of all time. In this movie, Kathryn played Joy, an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) in Hong Kong who finds love with Alden Richards’ character, Ethan. The film had a significant impact on viewers due to the beautiful and touching story of love and the sacrifices of OFWs.
However, Kathryn Bernardo is known to be a professional and has big dreams and ambitions for her career. She is not known to make decisions based solely on personal matters, and she has expressed her openness to projects that give her the opportunity to showcase her acting talent. If it is true that there were disagreements between her and Daniel about this project, it is likely an internal matter related to their relationship and not an issue that would affect their work in the industry.
Like other artists, couples in the showbiz industry have their own considerations, and it’s natural that some projects or decisions may cause tension. This is nothing new, and many couples in the industry need to work together and discuss their projects and commitments.
As of now, there has been no official statement from Kathryn, Daniel, or Alden regarding this issue. The best course of action is to wait for formal announcements from their PR teams. KathNiel fans continue to hope for more projects and films from them that will bring joy to their supporters, but it is important to respect the personal decisions of their idols.
