However, Maine was quick to respond on Twitter, expressing her reaction to the report.

She then revealed the real purpose of their travel plans.

According to her, Arjo's upcoming visit to Switzerland is related to his film's inclusion in the prestigious Locarno film festival.

Additionally, their following trips are meant to be personal and self-funded.

"Context.

Next time yung mga magagaling nating netizens kung walang time mag fact check, huwag padalos-dalos sa pag react. Mema minsan. Pati kayo nagpapaloko sa maling balita at impormasyon. Sayang ang pagiging “woke” kung lahat nalang papaniwalaan," she added.
