After all those photos of John Lloyd Cruz having fun at the beach with Ellen Adarna, his home network ABS-CBN announced that the 34-year-old actor and endorser will be taking a break from showbiz.

On Friday, Oct 6, Kane Errol Choa, head for Integrated Corporate Communications confirmed this through an official statement.

A post shared by ABS-CBN PR (@abscbnpr) on

The statement reads: “ABS-CBN and John Lloyd Cruz have agreed for him to take an indefinite leave of absence to attend to personal matters. John Lloyd will be taking a break outside the country and will return to ABS-CBN after his leave of absence.”

No word about the reason for or duration of Cruz’s break. Guess we’ll just have to get our JLC fix through his weirdly artistic (?) Instagram feed.
