Young actress Jillian Ward has finally addressed long-running rumors linking her to businessman and former Ilocos Sur governor Luis “Chavit” Singson.
In an interview with Boy Abunda on Monday, Oct. 21, the 20-year-old actress firmly denied any connection to him.
“This will be the first and last time I’ll speak about this. Never ko siyang nakilala, never ko siyang nameet, never ko siyang nakausap. Hindi ko alam paano nila nagawa-gawa ‘yung mga kwento,” said Jillian.
The Kapuso star also clarified that she has never met Singson and challenged those spreading the rumors to show real proof.
“Kung meron silang sinasabi nilang CCTV footage, ilabas nila. ‘Wag lang AI,” she added.
Jillian stressed that everything she has achieved came from her own hard work. She also denied viral claims connecting Singson to her 18th birthday celebration or to her family.
“Hindi talaga totoo. I never met him, never po kaming nagkausap… Hindi ko nga alam kung kilala niya ako eh. Hindi talaga kami magkakilala,” Jillian continued.
The actress said she hopes her statement will put an end to the rumors once and for all.
