- The love team of Elmo Magalona and Janella Salvador started in the ABS-CBN series “Born For You” in 2016.
- Their close friendship during the show’s duration blossomed into a romantic relationship.
- Last month, Janella has accused her partner Elmo of physically hurting her, saying the abuse happened twice.
Elmo Magalona and Janella Salvador, known as ElNella love team, are currently on a concert tour in Canada, dubbed “One Magical Night,” that was announced as early as July — months before their alleged altercation that led to their separation.
During the Calgary event at the Genesis Center, Salvador and Magalona performed a duet of “Born for You” — the significance of which was not lost on long-time supporters of the former couple. Unlike in their past performances of “Born for You,” Salvador and Magalona now had a noticeable distance. Gone were the holding of hands, locking of eyes, and warm smiles and hugs that characterized “ElNella” duets prior to their breakup.
Fans react
This could be their last duet together and their fans took to Twitter their sentiments.

In an interview, the 20-year-old actress also expressed her unwillingness to work with the actor in the future. She said that although they had an amazing time together, things have come to an end.
Elmo, on the other hand, decided not to share his side of the story.
