However in his post, Villena emphasized that he is happy being Bautista’s friend/bestfriend.

Several minutes later, this version appeared. According to some netizens, Villena edited the caption of his post after it received negative comments.


Because of his controversial post, Villena earned the ire of netizens who accused him of giving false hope to Bautista. Some netizens believe that the post was embarrassing for Bautista and it would have been better if Villena just sent it as a private message to his best friend.

An hour later, Bautista decided to break her silence about the issue. In her Instagram post titled “Kalma”, Bautista clarified that she is happy with whatever relationship she has with Villena.


She wrote: “I hate it when people put pressure on people’s relationships even if they don’t know how it works. Pero ang alam ko lang, totoo kung ano mang meron tayo. Maganda ang nabuo naming friendship.”

(But I know what we have is true. We created a beautiful friendship.)
