In the "Today's Talk" segment of "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda" on Wednesday, Boy said Pia has reached out to the national artist.
"Nag-reach out na si Pia, even if it was not Pia's fault, to apologize, to say sorry na nangyari ito," the Asia's King of Talk said.
"Naayos na ito pero leksyon po sa atin, dahil importante na tinatrato natin [ng maayos] ang number one, seniors. Number two, this was a book fair, this was a cultural event," Boy added.
In an interview with PEP.ph, Ricky shared his honest reaction to the viral incident.
"Hindi kinakailangan na senior or hindi kinakailangang National Artist. Pero kung may taong nilapitan din ni Pia, kinamayan pa ni Pia, respetuhin niya [guard] 'yung tao at si Pia, kasi kilala ni Pia," he said.
"Pero hindi niya kailangang hawiin kasi si Pia mismo ang lumapit at nakipag-usap. So, kawalang respeto 'yon hindi lang sa akin kundi kay Pia. Hindi in-acknowledge ng guard na in-acknowledge ako ni Pia."
On the other hand, the "Para Kay B" author also said he only noticed the occurrence when his assistant showed the viral video to him.
“Nagulat ako, bakit may ganitong comments. Hindi ko naman naramdaman, wala akong naramdaman na nangyari na ganoon. Siguro, hindi lang ako masyadong pala-pansin sa sarili," he said.
