Derbez-Dalay separation rumors denied

Overview

In late July 2026, speculation emerged regarding a potential split between Mexican actor José Eduardo Derbez and partner Paola Dalay after Dalay removed photos of Derbez from social media. While Derbez’s mother, Victoria Ruffo, initially dismissed the rumors, the situation evolved as the couple addressed the speculation through various channels.

In mid-August, Alessandra Rosaldo noted that the family would not comment on the relationship status until an official announcement was made, citing Derbez’s work commitments in Spain. Paola Dalay subsequently clarified that the couple was experiencing physical distance due to their respective professional projects in Spain and Mexico. Dalay denied allegations of infidelity, stating the relationship is built on respect and dialogue, and noted they intended to speak publicly once Derbez returned.

Eugenio Derbez also weighed in, stating that his family had received no official confirmation of a breakup and that his son had not communicated a formal separation.

Upon returning to Mexico City from Spain in late August, José Eduardo Derbez explicitly denied the rumors to the media, stating, “We are very well, we are very happy.” The couple provided further visual confirmation of their stability by appearing together at a red carpet event for the series ‘Hotel todo incluido’.
