Zeinab Harake has apologized to celebrities Robi Domingo, Ivana Alawi, Alex Gonzaga and other celebrity vloggers after she was accused of badmouthing them by fellow content creator Wilbert Tolentino.
Tolentino had earlier accused Harake of calling other vloggers “trash” and saying there is no “market” with TV host Domingo in their public spat over the past few days. Following this, Harake spoke up on the issue on her Facebook page today, Oct. 25.
“Gusto ko lang po sana humingi ng paumanhin sa lahat ng taong napagsalitaan ko nang hindi maganda at sa mga kaibigan kong nadamay sa issue na aking kinasangkutan (I just want to say sorry to everyone I spoke badly of and to my friends who were affected by the issue I am involved in),” she said. “Ate Jelai [Andres], Ate Alex, Ate [Donnalyn Bartolome], Ivana, Robi, Sanya [Lopez], Whamos, Toni [Fowler], Toro Fam, Makagago, [Madam Inutz] and Sachzna.”
“Hindi po ako magbibigay ng kahit na anong excuse, ang mga nabasa n’yo po ay mga salitang nabitawan ko ng hindi ko napagisipan. [Tao] lang din po ako katulad n’yo. Ang ugali kong ito ay hindi tama at dapat kong baguhin. I’m really sorry,” the vlogger added.
(I will not give any kind of excuse, what you have read are words that I said without thinking. I am only human like all of you. My behavior is not right and I need to change it. I’m really sorry.)
Harake then asked for forgiveness from her fans, known as Zebbies, who were disappointed by the way she acted.
“Nawa’y magkaroon po ng kapatawaran ang pagkakamali kong ito and I will try my best upang magbago, again galing sa puso ko I’m so sorry,” she told them. “I will move on and move forward from this dark chapter of my life. I will become better.”
(I hope there will be forgiveness for my wrongdoings and I will try my best to change. Again, from my heart, I’m so sorry…) EDV
