Earlier this month, Etrata received backlash from netizens after a screen-recorded video expressing her sympathy for Duterte’s arrest by the International Criminal Court (ICC) last March went viral on social media.
For this, the former PBB housemate apologized, but said that she doesn’t want to be open about topics related to politics due to how “divisive” it was.
Etrata was then defended by her uncle and handler Yure and GMA senior vice president for programming, talent management, worldwide, and support group Annette Gozon-Valdes in separate posts, with the Kapuso executive reiterating that the rising star is not a “diehard of any politician.” /edv
