Vivamax actress Karen Lopez has recently addressed concerns regarding her sudden absence from social media and public view.

Subsequently, she posted a separate, more detailed statement on her personal Facebook profile, explaining her need to step back and focus on her mental and emotional health.

In her Facebook post, Karen began by sincerely apologizing for going “off the grid” for the past few days.

“Pasensya na talaga kung bigla akong nawala nitong mga nakaraang araw. Nang hihingi po ako ng paumanhin sobrang sorry talaga sa lahat,” (I am really sorry if I suddenly disappeared these past few days. I am asking for your forgiveness, I am really very sorry to everyone,) she wrote, conveying her remorse to those who may have been worried or confused by her silence.

Karen then elaborated on the reasons behind her temporary withdrawal, stating that she had been navigating some significant mental and emotional challenges.

“Kailangan ko lang munang magpahinga at mag-focus sa sarili. Dumaan ako sa mga bagay na medyo mabigat mentally and emotionally, at napagtanto kong kailangan kong unahin ang well-being ko- even if that meant stepping back for a while,” (I just needed to rest and focus on myself. I went through some things that were quite heavy mentally and emotionally, and I realized that I needed to prioritize my well-being - even if that meant stepping back for a while,) she explained.

Acknowledging the concern and speculation her absence may have caused, the Vivamax star expressed her gratitude for the messages of support she received.

“Alam kong may ilan sa inyo ang nag alala o nagtaka, at sobrang na-appreciate ko ang messages at support ninyo,” (I know some of you were worried or wondered, and I really appreciate your messages and support,) she said.

Looking ahead, Karen assured her fans that she is on the path to recovery and intends to return stronger.

“Slowly, I’m getting better and trying to comeback stronger, one step at a time,” (Slowly, I’m getting better and trying to come back stronger, one step at a time,) she shared, indicating a gradual return to her usual activities.

She concluded her statement by thanking those who understood her situation, reached out, and continued to stand by her.

“Salamat sa mga nakaintindi, sa mga nag-reach out, at sa mga patuloy na nandyan. Slowly but surely, I’m getting back on track. Appreciate you all so much!” (Thank you to those who understood, to those who reached out, and to those who continue to be there. Slowly but surely, I’m getting back on track. I appreciate you all so much!) Karen also noted in a postscript that her initial post had been deleted.

The Vivamax star’s direct address to the public comes amidst unconfirmed reports and discussions online regarding her whereabouts.

Her statement provides clarity on the situation, emphasizing the importance of mental and emotional well-being and the need for personal space during challenging times.

Fans and followers have responded with messages of support and understanding, wishing her a swift recovery and a strong return to her career.

The actress’s transparency in addressing the situation has been met with appreciation from her fanbase.

News, photos or videos that arouse the interest of netizens would often go viral on social media, due to the attention netizens give them. These viral posts appeal to the emotions of netizens, and in rare cases, such could also happen to ordinary people, making them very relatable.

In other news, a man allegedly fatally stabbed by his own father was found dead in a canal. Authorities discovered the body of the man in Oton, Iloilo, who had been stabbed multiple times, with his own father allegedly confessing to the crime. The father was apprehended after reportedly admitting the killing to relatives but has refused to give a statement to the police. In a surprising development, the victim's family has stated they will not be pursuing a formal complaint against the arrested father.

Still in other news, the 21-year-old daughter of the slain mayor of Rizal, Cagayan, won this year’s elections and has been proclaimed as the mayor-elect of the said town. It can be recalled that her father, Rizal, Cagayan Mayor Joel Ruma, was assassinated during the campaign. He was replaced by his daughter, 21-year-old Jamila, and she went on to defeat the political rivals of her father, retired generals Ralph Mamauag and Florence Littaua. Jamila is now one of the youngest elected officials in the Philippines.
