‘Wag natin gatungan’: Maja Salvador stays away from memes on Julia-Gerald rumored romance

MANILA, Philippines — Actress Maja Salvador refused to add fuel to the controversy hounding former boyfriend Gerald Anderson and actress Julia Barretto.

“Ayoko nang sumali. Masaya ‘ko. Ayoko pong sumali, ayoko pong sumagot. Wala na ko dyan,” Salvador said Thursday when asked how she feels on being involved in the meme frenzy over the controversy.

“Sana hayaan natin sila magheal dahil hindi madali ang may mga pinagdadaanan. Wag na tayo sumabay, wag na natin gatungan kasi at the end of the day, lahat tayo tao nasasaktan,” she added.

Salvador’s photo has been used by netizens to create memes regarding the rumored romance between Anderson and Barretto.

In fact, she was among the celebrities included in an advertisement by ride-hailing application Grab showing photos of women linked to Anderson.

The ad was meant to promote Grab’s six-seater service but was immediately taken down. The service firm apologized after netizens aired displeasure on the ad.

Salvador and Anderson were together for two years but called it quits in 2015.

Meanwhile, Salvador confirmed last March that she is back together with former boyfriend Rambo Nuñez.
