“Maraming Salamat Sa lahat ng concern nyu sa akin :) at nakakatouch na mga mensahe. Pero ako na nagsasabi na di nmn ako nasaktan at naintindihan ko ang pinagdadaanan ng Mama ni Diana,” Cantiveros wrote in an Instagram post.
During eviction night, Cantiveros was interviewing Mackey’s mother Rowena Cariaga about the journey of her daughter inside the “PBB” house.
Sana makita ni Diana ang video clip nito of her mom’s reaction to her eviction… what a sore loser. Sa pag hagis ng mic from Melai and pushing her aside… Just an awful attitude #PBB8TheBatch4BigFour pic.twitter.com/5H04JmAVgu

While Cantiveros was trying to console Cariaga, the latter grabbed the microphone from the host and continued her message.
“Diana, come home!” Cariaga said, before walking out of the interview.
In a Facebook post, Cariaga explained it was not her intention to brush Cantiveros aside because it was only a joke.
“Kay Ms Melai, gusto kong mag apologize di ko naman intention na matabig cya dahil para sa akin biro lng at di ko sinasadya yun. Naging emotional lang ako pero di ako nagagalit,” Cariaga said in a Facebook post.
Cantiveros, on the other hand, said she understood Cariaga and said they even hugged after the viral interview.
“Mix emotion na si Mami, natawa cya, nalungkot, nafrustrate, na normal na mararamdaman ng nanay pag hirapan o nasasaktan ang Anak :) kasi mga parehas nmn kming Momshie :)” Cantiveros said.
“At PS after ng interview nagHug pa kmi ni Mami kasi kinomfort ko cya na dtu talaga sa outside world ang totoong laban,” she added.
