Cathy Garcia-Sampana asserted that she didn’t unfollow Daniel Padilla on Instagram and that she never followed him in the first place, amid speculations of the latter’s alleged split with Kathryn Bernardo.
Garcia-Sampana denied unfollowing Padilla in an Instagram post on Wednesday, Nov. 22, where she pointed out that her social media activity shouldn’t be seen as a big deal.
“Mga bakla huwag niyo na po ako idamay dito. Wala talaga kayong makikitang supremo dj sa followed ko kasi hindi ko naman siya fina-follow noon pa (Friends, don’t involve me in this issue. You wouldn’t see the username @supremo_dp in my following list because I never followed him in the first place),” she said.
The filmmaker also clarified that she doesn’t know Padilla’s Instagram account and she had only followed 20 pages since then.
“‘Di ko alam totoong account niya kasi. 20 nga lang fina follow ko e. Noon pa. Kaya Huwag na po nating gawing issue. Wala nga akong alam inangkupo (I don’t know his real account. I have only followed 20 people ever since. So please don’t make this an issue. I don’t even know anything, my goodness),” she said.
Garcia-Sampana’s post comes days after showbiz writer Ogie Diaz claimed that Bernardo and Padilla parted ways, although he clarified that he merely cited speculations that were apparently “not confirmed.”
The couple’s relationship has been making headlines after they were rumored to be separated, and Padilla was linked to his “Pangako Sa’yo” co-star Andrea Brillantes. The actors have yet to issue a statement about the allegations, as of this writing.
The filmmaker is known to be close with Padilla and Bernardo on and off-screen, where she directed their projects “She’s Dating the Gangster,” “The Hows of Us,” and “La Luna Sangre,” just to name a few.
