After Bianca Lapus was accused of issuing bouncing checks to singer Aliya Parcs, Claudine Barretto has declared her support for Lapus on the issue.
Barretto shared a screenshot yesterday, Oct. 8, of Lapus’ statement on the website Fashion Pulis.

Lapus reportedly said: “I did not issue any cheques to Aliya Parcs. If she can produce a single cheque I issued that bounced, I will pay her double. The one who owes her is [redacted], who also owes me 300k and other victims, but I have moved on and chose to forgive and learn from that painful experience. Thank you.”
In the original post, the name Barretto chose to censor is a certain Mylene Miranda.
“Please let us not judge,” Barretto urged. “To my sister @biancalapus [Bianca] I’m here for you. I know you. I love you…Be strong Biancs.”
Last Oct. 1, Parcs accused Lapus of her debt worth P130,000. She also claimed that she thought Lapus was a friend and that other people had contacted her with the same problem.
Lapus was grateful to her close friend for her kind words.

“Thank you for having my back even if you don’t have to [do] this at all,” she said. “This doesn’t deserve to be in your feed and yet you chose to fight for me even if I told you to ignore it pero mas matapang ka pa sakin (but you are braver than I am) to fight for my rights.”
She wrote, “1 thousand bashers versus 1 or 2 true friends will always make me grateful. Because it’s something money cannot buy.” /ra
