Sarah Lahbati has moved into a new house, amid separation rumors with her husband, Richard Gutierrez.
Her caption reads, "Switching up the mood for 2024." From the looks of it, it's going to be a beautiful home, and Sarah is looking for an interior design who can work with her.
Sarah Lahbati, Richard Gutierrez still mum about separation rumors
Neither Sarah nor Richard has issued a statement about their marital status.
In December, Sarah's mother-in-law, Annabelle Rama, revealed in an interview with ABS-CBN that Richard has been living in her home, together with her two sons, Zion and Kai, for a month. The veteran actress didn't confirm if the two separated.
Nevertheless, Sarah got the support of her friends and followers on social media.
Sofia Andres, her close friend and fellow mom, had this to say about her new home, "Proud of you. You got this."
Ellen Adarna cheered Sarah on, while her followers applaud her for being brave and unbothered.
One of her followers said, "Sarah, I really admire your confidence. You are [sic] strong woman! I know you are still young, and [a] more peaceful life is coming ahead for you. Stay focused, don't let the noise stop you in reaching your goals together with the help of your parents. I know hard it is, but you will be victorious in the end."
Another one said, "The mother queen is mothering and queening!"
Rumors about their separation started in November last year, with Sarah's absence in Annabelle's birthday party.
On January 10, Sarah unfollowed Richard on Instagram, as reported by Rappler. She is also no longer following her in-laws, Annabelle, Ruffa Gutierrez, and Raymond Guttierez.
Sarah was 19 when she got pregnant with her first child with Richard, who was 29 at the time. Zion was born in 2013, and their second child Kai was born in 2018.
Sarah and Richard tied the knot in 2020 in a surprise intimate civil wedding.
