At a glance
Veteran showbiz columnist Ogie Diaz has made a significant social media post, responding to the serious cyber libel case filed against him by Bea Alonzo on May 2.
In his Instagram story, Ogie apologized to the media for not issuing an official statement regarding Bea's cyber libel case.
Ogie stated that the issue would be addressed at the appropriate time.
"Pasensya na sa lahat ng reporters na tumatawag para maging balanse lang ang kanilang report.
"Naiintindihan ko kayo kung nginangarag kayo ng news desk o ng editors nyo. Makakarating din naman sa amin yan para sagutin sa takdang panahon.
"Pero eto ha? Ayoko ng magpakaplastik. Tulad ng lagi naming hinihirit sa Ogie Diaz Showbiz Update, sila pa rin ang gusto naming magkatuluyan sa ending."
Ogie was referring to the breakup of Bea and Dominic Roque.
In February, Bea and Dominic released a joint statement saying they had decided to end their engagement.
On May 2, Bea filed three criminal cases for cyber libel against showbiz columnists and online hosts Cristy Fermin and Ogie, along with their co-hosts in their respective online programs.
Bea filed the cyber libel cases at the Quezon City Prosecutor's Office. She was accompanied by her lawyer Atty. Joey Garcia and manager Shirley Kuan when she filed the complaint.
