Almost everyone on social media showed their reactions towards the breakup between Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla, and here are three reasons why we will definitely miss their relationship
It wasn’t a relationship we were directly part of, but why does it feel like it was our own breakup? That’s how the majority is feeling towards the recent split of Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla, and it’s so valid. Whether you’re a hardcore fan or someone who just sees them on social media every now and then, it can still affect everyone because they were so present in our childhood. With that, here are simple yet poignant reasons why we’re still hung up on their recent separation.
RELATED: The Lessons That Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla Taught Us About Love After Their Breakup
1. Growing up together
Most of us grew up watching the two actors star in many TV shows and movies together and separately. We literally saw Kathryn and Daniel grow up on-screen, and take on various roles that pushed their acting careers further. There was a feeling of attachment as viewers since we saw them together quite a lot.
On top of that, even if we’re used to seeing industry love teams become real-life couples, it’s quite unusual for them to last as long as KathNiel did—for 11 years to be exact. So if you’re feeling like it’s also your own breakup, we totally understand.
2. A glimpse of what could have been
The two would often give their fans a little peek into their relationship. From their travel vlogs to their public appearances, we saw how they both treated each other with such care and comfort. While we may not know what happened behind the cameras, we had an idea how Kathryn and Daniel were like to each other, but for now, we’ll just think of the what-could-have-been.
3. Sentimental hold
Let’s be real—we all know how difficult it is to maintain a relationship, what more a long-term one with someone you experienced life with for more than a decade? They became the ideal couple that showed us how a relationship can work even if it started when the two parties were still very young.
