26 Feb – Vivian Velez has apologised for the misunderstanding caused by her recent social media post that seemingly insinuated Angel Locsin has a different intention in expressing support for ABS-CBN over its franchise renewal issue.

As reported on PEP, the actress sparked the issue earlier when she posted a list of ABS-CBN's Top 100 Stockholders List and revealed that Locsin's real name was also in the list, asserting that "The General's Daughter" has a vested interest in expressing sympathy with the network.

Locsin had since dismissed the allegations, saying that she is not a part of any political party nor is she signed with ABS-CBN. She also added that "money is not everything".

When asked to comment on the actress' response, Velez stated that there is no need for Locsin to be defensive about it.

"I do believe you have a good heart in helping others. Please try to use this kind of passion objectively with the perspective of doing what is right for the whole nation. I apologise if you think I maligned you in my FB personal wall post but that wasn't my intention," she added.

Velez also stressed that she is still a big fan of the said actress.
