The Philippine entertainment industry is in turmoil as news of Danica Sotto’s strong opposition to the relationship between her father, legendary comedian Vic Sotto, and young actress Maine Mendoza has spread widely. Although there has been no official statement from the insiders, close sources say that Danica absolutely does not accept this love affair and that her relationship with her father is extremely tense.
According to sources in the showbiz industry, Danica feels uncomfortable with the huge age gap between Vic and Maine. Not only that, she is also worried that this relationship will affect the reputation and image of the Sotto family. In particular, with her father’s solid career, Danica believes that Vic does not need a controversial new love affair like this.
Besides, there are rumors that Danica has frankly talked to her father and expressed her opposition, but Vic Sotto is still determined to protect his feelings for Maine Mendoza. Some sources said that the conversation between father and daughter became so tense that Danica left immediately afterwards without saying another word.
Notably, another person is also said to have expressed her opinion on this issue – Kristine Hermosa, wife of Oyo Boy Sotto (Vic Sotto’s son). Kristine, who is very private, is said to have had a private conversation with Danica and completely agreed with her sister-in-law’s opinion. This further escalated the tension in the Sotto family to its peak.
As for Vic Sotto, the comedian still seems to be indifferent to the criticism and continues to appear with Maine Mendoza at many events. He even publicly expressed his feelings for the young actress, which made the opponents – especially Danica – even angrier.
Meanwhile, Maine Mendoza has remained silent in the face of the noise. She has not made any statements about whether she is actually in a relationship with Vic Sotto.
The relationship between Vic Sotto and Maine Mendoza may continue to be discussed in the public eye in the coming time, but what many people are more interested in is the rift in the Sotto family. Will Danica continue to fight or will she give in to maintain peace with her father? Will Vic Sotto change his mind for the sake of his children or will he pursue his own happiness?
Vic Sotto denies Maine Mendoza is suspended from Eat Bulaga
Vic Sotto on rumored suspension of Maine Mendoza: ‘Why would TAPE, Eat Bulaga, suspend her?’
Vic Sotto denied the rumor that Maine Mendoza was suspended from Eat Bulaga!
The so-called Dubsmash Queen and half of the AlDub love team have been absent from the Kapuso network’s noontime show for almost a week.
Maine’s absence from the noontime show began after her long open letter to AlDub Nation, where she clarified her relationship with Alden Richards and Jake Ejercito.
After this, rumors emerged that Maine was suspended from the show.
Some say that she will leave the show where she became well-known to the public.
But news also spread that the phenomenal star is currently in America and will be taking a break from showbiz for a while. During the grand press conference of the 2017 Metro Manila Film Festival official entry Meant To Beh this Tuesday, December 5, PEP. ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) asked Vic about Maine.
Is Maine really on leave from the show?
The veteran TV host-comedian replied, “As far as I know, she’s on vacation.
“I’m not really in the know, I’m not privy to anything that’s her personal decision.
“Only she knows about that. I’m not privy to anything personal when it comes to her.”
Did he sense that Maine was going through something before she went on vacation?
Vic said, “Because we don’t see each other much, eh.
“Most of the time, he’s in the barangay, we’re in the studio.
“We only get together in the studio once a week, on Saturdays.
“Personally, I don’t feel anything.”
NOT SUSPENDED. But it’s not yet clear when Maine will return to Eat Bulaga.
Vic said, “I don’t know, you can ask Mr. [Tony] Tuviera, I don’t know about that either.”
Is Maine suspended from the show? Vic assured, “Definitely not.
Why would TAPE suspend him, right, Eat Bulaga?
“Especially Mr. Tuviera, he respects the opinions, thoughts, and whatever each of us in Dabarkads is going through.”
Does he have a message for the lost AlDub fans?
According to Vic, “Well, that’s all I know, I really don’t know anything, eh.
“The love team, that’s never going to go away, eh.
“It’s there forever.
“So, let’s just wait for the next chapters.”
