Rufa Mae Quinto admitted that she is still hoping to “clarify” things with her husband Trevor Magallanes amid their marital problems, with the actress also disclosing that the latter has yet to file for divorce.
Quinto spoke about the matter for the first time through an interview on “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda,” Friday, Jan. 17.
“Bilang asawa, syempre inaantay ko lang na maklaro kami [at] mag-usap pa rin kung totoo ba talaga [na] ‘yan ang nararamdaman niya. Kasi lagi nga rin kasi akong wala e, so baka naman pwedeng lambingan na muna, makiusap,” she said.
Quinto underscored that there is always two sides to every story, although she noted that she knows she is not always right and that Magallanes also has his reasons.
“We’re going through something,” she continued. “Pero ‘yung legalities sa mga file-file, walang nag-file ng divorce.”
The actress further noted that she and Magallanes — who earlier said that they were “in the process of divorce” — got married here in the Philippines where divorce is not legalized.
Quinto — who is facing security violations for her prior endorsement of a skincare company that is linked to an alleged investment scam — even quipped that she would not file for divorce as she already did a lot of filings regarding other legal matters.

Quinto said Magallanes is a good husband and father, also dismissing speculations that money might be the reason behind their marital woes.
Quinto also said she still loves Magallanes and that she wants their family to be complete. She stressed, however, that she respects him and whatever his decision will be.
“Hangga’t nga walang nagpa-file, waiting lang. Kumbaga hindi mo tinatapos kasi para rin sa anak namin ‘yon,” she added, referring to their daughter Athena.
Quinto and Magallanes tied the knot in 2016, then welcomed their daughter in 2017.
