In a series of live videos that were later widely screen-recorded and reposted across social media platforms, Apple responded to repeated questions from netizens about her relationship, which has been under scrutiny due to their 15-year age gap. Apple is 33 years old, while Chad is 18, a detail that has fueled intense discussion online over the past few weeks.
“Di ko siya ginugroom, wala sa qualifications. Yung nangyayari sa amin, malayong malayo sa gr*oming so wag niyong ipilit,” she maintained.
Despite the criticism, Apple said she is aware that people are free to form their own opinions about her personal life. She even went further, challenging those who strongly believe in the allegations to take formal action.

“Pero kung gusto niyong ipilit, again, go. Story niyo yan. Kung sa tingin niyo, yun yung case na nangyayari, bakit hindi niyo ireklamo at ipaimbestiga ng malaman niyo din naman. Okay din sa akin ’yun para ma-clarify na walang ganun,” she asserted.
In another live video, Apple also addressed her social media activity, saying she has no issue with people unfollowing her if they feel uncomfortable with what she posts. She recently hard-launched her relationship with Chad through a TikTok video that gained significant attention and thousands of views.
“Of course walang masama kahit ipost ko pa lahat nung mga pictures namin. Love life ko yun at tsaka page ko yun eh. Pwede naman kayong mag unfollow, wag nalang kayong tumingin. O kaya, pumikit nalang kayo para hindi niyo makita. Hindi kayo maging uncomfortable or hindi kayo mabwiset,” she expressed.
On concerns about her career, Apple assured her supporters that the companies she works with are aware of the situation and have continued their professional relationship with her. She also revealed that she has been receiving more inquiries despite the controversy surrounding her personal life.
“So yung initial goal na to cancel me, nung nalaman naman ng companies, nalaman ng work ko yung buong kwento. Nung nalaman nila yung buong kwento, and that there’s no reason for the judgment, then there’s also no reason to terminate my contract or to park me… Walang ganun na nangyari guys kasi it’s baseless,” she said.
Apple further described social media discourse as “noise,” attributing cancel culture to online fandom behavior, particularly among K-drama and K-pop communities, before ending her statement without backing down from her position.
