After releasing a statement to defend her son Kobe Paras from hate, Jackie Forster piqued netizens’ curiosity yet again with a quote about losing “abusers and manipulators” in her lives.
The celebrity mom took to her Instagram Stories on Wednesday, April 30, to share a quote that reads, “You don’t lose real friends, real opportunities or real relationships when you start standing up for your family and setting clear boundaries.”
“You lose abusers, manipulators, narcissists, control freaks, attention seekers and mental-health destroying leeches,” it further says.

Earlier, Forster also reposted quotes about haters and self-care.
“It’s 2025. Let’s stop pretending that we have haters. We have humans who hate themselves and hate their lives and then project that onto others. The hate is their own. Let it stay right there with them,” one of the quote states.
“Removing your presence from places you don’t feel loved, valued or respected is top tier self-care,” the other remark reads.

Forster earlier came to the defense of her son Kobe who has apparently been on the receiving end of hate after his breakup with actress Kyline Alcantara.
The celebrity mom, who was supposedly prompted to speak up due to Alcantara’s “toxic fans,” claimed that the actress “physically assaulted” the basketballer and that she had been “playing with Kobe’s mental health.”
The celebrity mom further disclosed that Kobe lived with the actress’ family for a time and had encounters with her parents “that really put him off.”
Alcantara did not immediately respond to these accusations, but her brother and close friends, who claim they lived with the former couple in the same house, refuted these, saying Alcantara was never manipulative or abusive.
Alcantara’s handler, Sparkle GMA Artist Center, later released a statement and stressed that the actress hopes to move on from the controversy. It further noted that Alcantara has chosen to be silent “to keep her peace and maintain the respect for the people who have been part of her life.”
Kobe has yet to speak publicly about the matter as of this writing.
