Yassi Pressman denied rumors of a romance with presidential son, Ilocos Norte Rep. Sandro Marcos, weeks after a video of them enjoying each other’s company at a private gathering went viral on social media.
Pressman, who just admitted to breaking up with Canada based-entrepreneur Jon Semira, told a 24 Oras interview on Tuesday, Aug. 15, that she and Marcos are just friends.
“‘Yung mga nakikita ko po (na balilta) kay Sandro [Marcos], hindi po ‘yun totoo at all. Tawang-tawa nga po kami (The reports linking me and Sandro Marcos are not true at all. We find those funny),” she said.
The actress then noted that their viral video, which has since been taken down from @_kitkatsz’s Tiktok page, added malice to their friendship due to the use of certain editing effects.
“Nalagyan lang po ng malisya dahil na-slow mo, nalagyan ng music (It just added malice because the video had a slow-mo edit and music),” she pointed out.
