Tubig at Langis lead Christine Reyes has allegedly ‘disrespected’ amd ‘humiliated’ co-star Vivian Velez during taping. (Photo from Reyes’ official Facebook page)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

MANILA \u2013 The management of television network ABS-CBN, through its Corporate Communications department, has officially released a statement clarifying the \u2018miscommunication\u2019 that occurred between two of its Tubig at Langis<\/em> stars, veteran Vivian Velez and young actress Christine Reyes.<\/p>\n

It can be recalled that Velez earlier filed an \u2018irrevocable resignation\u2019 as the lead antagonist in the afternoon drama, admitting that she could no longer take the \u2018humiliation\u2019 and \u2018disrespect\u2019 thrown to her by a co-star who allegedly has an attitude.<\/p>\n

One incident was when the two actresses shared a dressing room while taping scenes at a residence in Bulacan. A furious Reyes purportedly questioned the special treatment given to Velez, and ordered the production staff that the latter be vacated from the room so she can rest.<\/p>\n

ABS-CBN, however, denied such clash and explained that what only transpired was a mere \u2018miscommunication\u2019 between the two. The network also asserted that they were liable to the incident and have already apologized to those involved.<\/p>\n

Also clearing Reyes\u2019 name, ABS-CBN also shunned the Kapamilya star\u2019s supposed unbecoming behavior at work.<\/p>\n

Below is the full statement:<\/p>\n

\u201cNang magsimula ang produksyon ng Tubig at Langis noong Oktubre 2015 hanggang sa umere ito noong nakaraang buwan ay naging maayos ang lahat sa set ng programa<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaayos na nagtatrabaho ang bawat isa, mula sa cast, crew, at staff, kaya naman maganda ang kinalalabasan ng bawat episode<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cNoong nakaraang linggo lamang nagkaroon ng hindi pagkakaunawaan sa taping ng serye sa pagitan ng lead star nito na si Cristine Reyes at veteran actress na Vivian Velez<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

(From the start of the production of Tubig at Langis<\/em> in October 2015 until its airing in the previous month, everyone worked well on the set of the program. Everyone worked in accord, from the cast, crew and staff, that\u2019s why the outcome of every episode was good. It was only last week when there occurred a misunderstanding between lead star Christine Reyes and veteran actress Vivian Velez during the taping of the soap.)<\/p>\n

\u201cNarinig na ng karamihan ang panig ni Vivian ngunit may isang punto lang na may kaugnayan sa nangyari sa dressing room ang nais linawin ng programa<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cHindi totoong pinaalis ni Cristine si Vivian sa dressing room. Nagkaroon lamang ng miscommunication at inaako ng production team ang responsibilidad dito<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cSa katunayan, walang problema ang staff sa work ethics ni Cristine at maayos itong nakikisama sa lahat ng katrabaho niya<\/em>.<\/p>\n

(Many have already heard Vivian\u2019s side of the story. There is only one point regarding the incident in the dressing room that the program wants to clarify. It\u2019s not true that Christine wanted Vivian out of the dressing room. There only occurred a miscommunication and the production team takes responsibility over it. In truth, the staff has no problem with Christine\u2019s work ethics and she has dealt well with all that she works with.)<\/p>\n

\u201cHumingi na kami ng paumanhin kina Cristine at Vivian kaugnay nito.Ikinalulungkot namin ang pangyayaring ito sa masayang pamilya na nabuo namin sa Tubig at Langis<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cNaipaliwanag na namin ang aming panig sa dalawang aktres at umaasa kaming matapos na ang isyu sa maayos at magandang paraan<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cSa kabila nito, makakaasa pa rin ang aming manonood na patuloy kaming magsisikap para magbigay ng makabuluhan at napapanahong kwento sa aming programang Tubig at Langis<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

(We have already apologized to Christine and Vivian regarding this. We are saddened by what happened\u2026 We have already explained our side on both actresses and hope that the issue will come to rest in a proper way. Despite the issue, our viewers can rest assured that we will continue to create meaningful and relative stories in our program Tubig at Langis<\/em>.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
