Overview
- On Wednesday, Aug. 5, 2026, entertainment outlets citing revista Quién reported the couple had definitively ended their relationship and said the split took place several months earlier.
- Reports describe the separation as mutual and amicable, with no public conflicts and decisions made out of respect and affection.
- Sources say the primary reason was that each actor is at a different stage in life and career, a factor that led them to close this chapter.
- Pimentel and Benavides met in 2017 during the series La bella y las bestias, reunited publicly in 2025 and later appeared together at Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein premiere and in the musical Siete Veces Adiós.
- Both parties have asked for privacy as they focus on their individual work, a move that could mean upcoming solo projects or public appearances for each actor rather than joint promotions.
