FHM babe breaks up with cager BF


Actress-TV host Jeni Hernandez confirmed her recent break-up with her PBA cager-boyfriend Eugene Tejada. Hernandez could not hide her disappointment with Tejada who, according to her, has changed a lot. Before the split, Hernandez never left Tejada's side following the life-threatening on-court accident that gave the cager spinal injury. Tejada was playing forward for Purefoods Chunkee Giants in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). During a game against Red Bull on May 16, 2006, Tejada took a bad fall that caused him to absorb the full weight of Red Bull forward Mick Pennisi. Tejada suffered a spinal-cord injury that resulted in sensory dysfunction and the inability to move from the waist down. After undergoing an operation here in the Philippines, Tejada was flown to the United States for further treatment and rehabilitation. In a taped interview with S-Files last Sunday, January 14, Hernadez described what their relationship was like before they broke up. "Nung nasa States ako... Kasi during that time kasi, nagkakalabuan na kami. Nag-aaway na kami parati," Hernandez said. "I was depressed for a time and I got confused. Baka I'm better off with him. Malaki ang pinagbago niya," she continued. Apparently, Tejada — who was in the US for a major surgery — was unhappy with Hernandez's decision to return to the Philippines to work on projects. He also suspected, Hernandez said, that she was having a relationship with another guy. In a taped phone interview for the same S-Files episode, Tejada did say: "Actually, I know there is. I know there's another person. I don't care now. She's a party girl out there in the Philippines." He added, "I just don't have to deal with it. The situation, in my place, is very sensitive. I'm still in a wheelchair." To this, Hernndez, a former FHM Babe, said, "Parang inisip ko na lang, na parang ako na nga lang hindi ko na kaya. Everything na nagawa ko for you, nakapagsalita ka nang ganun sa akin?" Still smarting, she said, "Parang ano'ng gagawin mo diyan? Ano, ganun ba yun, 'yong career mo, ganyan? Parang nasaktan ako. Ito yung buhay ko e. Ito yung naging buhay ko, 'tapos sasabihan mo ako nang ganun?" Hernandez concedes that the accident might have caused the change in attitude of her former boyfriend. "Yun lang siguro yung naging trigger point sa akin. Di ko rin siya masisisi. Siguro nagiging ganun siya, mainitin ang ulo, kasi nga because of his condition," Jeni ended. - Philippine Entertainment Portal
