Actress Ellen Adarna doubled down on her allegations that her husband, actor Derek Ramsay, was allegedly involved with another woman. Within hours of releasing screenshots and pointed remarks that fueled the nationwide buzz, Adarna clarified that she is legally constrained from disclosing the identity of the alleged “side chick,” reinforcing that her legal counsel advised strict confidentiality moving forward.
Adarna, known for her breakout performance in Beauty in a Bottle, made the clarifications through an Instagram Story update on Monday, November 17. While addressing the swirling speculation, she emphasized that the woman in question is not one of Ramsay’s former partners.
“As much as I want to reveal who the girl is, I cannot. My lawyers advised me not to. I can get in trouble. But to clarify, she is not an ex-girlfriend. She is, I think, a side chick,” Adarna asserted, highlighting that the situation is a significant reputational risk for multiple parties. She went on to defend Ramsay’s past relationships, noting, “Kawawa naman mga ex-girlfriend niya. Walang kinalaman but yeah, I know they’ve been friends for decades, and she’s always been there… Kung btch siya, mas btch ako.”
In a development that signals long-tail implications for their domestic arrangements, Adarna confirmed that she continues to reside in Ramsay’s home pending the completion of renovations in her new property. According to her, a barangay-mediated agreement was previously established to set boundaries between the estranged couple.
“Pina-barangay ko siya twice. We had an agreement three months ago that he won’t come back until I move into my new place,” she disclosed, underscoring an operational framework shaped around cohabitation logistics and emotional safety.
Interestingly, the actress stated she never confronted Ramsay directly about the alleged infidelity. Instead, she suggested that the actor learned about the allegations through social media—the same pipeline through which fans and industry stakeholders became aware of the controversy. “I did not confront him about this. He just found out here,” she said.
The couple has been on the radar since early 2025 following persistent breakup rumors. As digital chatter continues to escalate and brand reputations hang in the balance, stakeholders across the entertainment sector are watching closely for Ramsay’s response and potential legal escalations—an unfolding situation with real legacy implications in celebrity relationship management.
