Ryan Bang Reveals Heartbreaking Reason His Wedding Never Happened
RYAN BANG – What started as a fun segment on It’s Showtime turned emotional when Ryan Bang opened up about the wedding that never happened.
“It’s Showtime” host Ryan Bang became emotional after sharing a heartfelt message about his former girlfriend during the noontime show’s latest episode on Saturday, August 22.
The emotional moment happened after Vice Ganda came up with a special attendance-check segment involving the hosts’ former partners. Since the country is celebrating Buwan ng Wika, each host was challenged to deliver their shout-out poetically.
“‘Pag sinabi ko ang apelyido, magbibigay ng mensahe o shout-out sa kaniyang ex. At dahil Buwan ng Wika, patula ang pagkakasabi ng bawat linya,” said the Unkabogable Star.
Teddy Corpuz was the first host asked to give a poetic message to his ex. The segment continued from one host to another until it was Ryan’s turn.
Ryan delivered a short but emotional verse that appeared to reflect on his past relationship and the wedding that never happened.
“Ako’y may dating kasintahan. At dati kaming nagmamahalan. Pero di pumayag ang tadhana. Kaya hindi kami nagtuloy sa dambana.”
His words immediately drew an emotional response from his fellow hosts. They surrounded Ryan and hugged him in an apparent effort to comfort him following his heartfelt revelation.
Ryan had previously been engaged to Paola Huyong, with whom he was reportedly planning to tie the knot. Their relationship had attracted attention after Paola publicly announced in June 2024 that she had accepted Ryan’s marriage proposal.
The engagement appeared to mark an important milestone for the couple, who had been together before eventually reaching plans for marriage. However, their relationship later faced difficulties, leading to speculation about their status.
By June 2026, Ryan confirmed that he was single again, several months after rumors surfaced about problems in his relationship with Paola.
His latest statement on “It’s Showtime” gave viewers another glimpse into how the canceled wedding remains an emotional chapter in his life. While Ryan did not provide further details about what caused their separation, his poetic words suggested that he had accepted that their relationship was simply not meant to reach the altar.
For Ryan, the moment served as both a lighthearted segment and an unexpectedly touching reminder of a love story that did not have the ending he once imagined.
