Inside Emmanuel Palomare’s failed relationship with Irina Baeva
Since the beginning of his movie career to date, Emmanuel Palomares has only been linked to one woman: Irina Baeva. The two were an item from 2015 through 2017. Their romance was a pretty publicized one, with various levels of PDA and pictures of each other scattered all around their respective socials. Their relationship took off immediately after they met at the Televisa Art Education Center in Mexico. Irina is a Russian national, while Emma is from Venezuela and so both of them bonded over the fact that they had no other family in the country.
Their romance was a whirlwind one and lasted until the middle of 2016. By the end of that year, they had unfollowed each other on social media, and in early 2017, Emmanuel officially announced his split from Irina. The actor went on to say in an interview with People magazine, that he and Irina were focused on their careers, and refuted rumors that either of them had cheated. Irina refused to comment on her ex until 2021 when she revealed in a tell-all interview that contrary to what Emmanuel had said, the relationship had ended very suddenly, and she never understood why they broke up. All that seems to be in the past now as Irina is now engaged to Mexican actor, Gabriel Soto.
Emmanuel himself has remained single ever since, although he revealed that he was in a relationship for 6 years before Irina. This was when he was still in his home country, and yet undiscovered in the movie world. Sadly, the relationship came to its natural demise when he left Venezuela to pursue his dreams. He was last rumored to be dating model Erica Bowenville after they appeared in a TikTok video together.
