After focusing almost exclusively on child-rearing and reviving her entertainment career throughout the 2010s, Estrada surprised fans in late 2019 by confirming a romance with non-showbiz partner Jam Ignacio. Ignacio, an entrepreneur from San Ildefonso, Bulacan, offered a stable presence completely detached from the entertainment industry.
The couple went public in November 2019 after meeting through mutual acquaintances earlier that summer. Unlike her previous relationships, which played out against the backdrop of 1990s tabloids, this romance unfolded on social media with periodic travel photos and quiet family gatherings. Estrada frequently noted in television appearances that Ignacio respected her independence, loved her children, and never sought the spotlight.
While the relationship fueled engagement rumors across local entertainment blogs between 2021 and 2023, Estrada remained clear about her priorities. She maintained that marriage was never a checklist requirement for personal fulfillment. Though the pair later scaled back their shared social media presence to protect personal privacy, the chapter marked Estrada's most grounded public relationship in decades.
