Is it true that Bianca Manalo is now dating Jonathan Sterling?
Rumor has it that Binibining Pilipinas Universe 2009 and actress Bianca Manalo is dating the British software developer Jonathan Sterling, who is reportedly the father of Miss Universe Philippines 2022 Celeste Cortesi’s baby.
To recall, back in April, Celeste shared on her social media post that she is expecting her first baby. In an interview, the beauty queen expressed excitement and said that she has always wanted to be a mom even before she reached 30.
Even though Celeste did not mention the name of the father of her baby, reportedly, it was Jonathan Sterling. She is due to give birth in October, the birth month of her late father. The beauty queen also shared that she intended to name her son Sergio, which is also the name of her late father.
However, a recent write-up published by Bilyonaryo.com claimed that according to a “babbler.” Jonathan ended his relationship with Celeste, and instead of preparing for fatherhood, the babbler claimed that the Dubai-based software developer had moved on with Bianca Manalo.
To recall, Bianca was in a long-term relationship with Senator Win Gatchalian. They have been dating since 2018; however, in January 2026, the Senator said that his love life is “non-existent.”
Prior to this, rumors about their breakup had already been circulating, and they stopped sharing posts about each other.
One of the controversial issues about Bianca and Sen. Win‘s past relationship was when the actress was linked to actor Rob Gomez, when their private conversation was leaked online.
As of this writing, the reason for the alleged breakup between Celeste and Jonathan has not been revealed. They have yet to speak about the rumor.
Bianca Manalo has not yet reacted to her rumored relationship with Jonathan Sterling.
