The singer spoke about the issue during the press conference for her upcoming concert, Where It All Started, which will take place at the SM Mall of Asia Arena on October 4, 2026.
Reporters asked Moira about the Instagram unfollowing controversy involving several showbiz personalities, including Sam Milby, Yeng Constantino, Erik Santos, and TJ Monterde.
When asked if she had said anything that caused her friends to unfollow her, Moira answered:

"No, I didn't."
She also denied allegations that she had spoken against her friends behind their backs.
"I opened up to a close friend of mine, but I didn't backstab anyone. Not in that way. I wouldn't do that. They're all safe with me. So, it was just one close friend, one. But it wasn't that way. Not that way," she told PUSH ABS-CBN.
The controversy began in late January 2025 when netizens noticed that Moira had unfollowed everyone on Instagram. Several fellow artists, including Cornerstone Entertainment talents, also appeared to have stopped following her.
The timing coincided with reports that she had parted ways with Cornerstone, her longtime management agency. Neither Moira nor the agency confirmed the split at the time.
During the press conference, Moira acknowledged that misunderstandings with her former management played a role in what happened.
"I know that a lot of the things that happened had something to do with a lot of misunderstandings. And we never got to talk about it," she said.
Despite the fallout, the singer expressed gratitude toward her previous management.
"And it was with my previous management, whom I'm very, very grateful for. And I wouldn't be where I am now without them. So, I'm very thankful for them," she said.
"And whatever happened between all of that, I would like that to be between us. Because I still believe that, I still love them very much. And I'm very happy for all of their successes," she added.
Moira admitted that she had lost several friends along the way, but she remained hopeful that their relationships could still be repaired.
"For me, I'm still hopeful that none of us really burned bridges. And a lot of us just need a little bit of time. I think a lot of us just hurt differently. And ako po, I acknowledge that there were things na nagawa ko po when I was hurting na hindi ko po sinasadya. And there were things na hindi ko po sila masisisi for how they reacted, and that's okay," she said.
"But I know that what we all had was real. They're all good people, and I'm really, really grateful for the memories that we all had and shared," she continued.
The singer also took responsibility for the pain her former friends may have experienced.
"Huwag din po natin ialis sa kanila na nasaktan ko sila. Kasalanan ko po. Kunin na natin 'yan," she said.
"Wala po silang ginawang masama [about] all the unfollowing," she added.
When asked whether she had already made peace with them, Moira confirmed that she had, but chose not to elaborate.
"Yeah. But I think it's just very hard to be in the middle. I just, I don't wanna say so much," she said.
Still, she made her desire to restore the friendships clear.
"And I'm so hopeful for reconciliation someday," she said.
Moira also thanked the friends who remained by her side, naming Regine Velasquez, Ogie Alcasid, Erik Santos, and Angeline Quinto among those who supported her.
The issue continued into February 2025, when it became connected to another showbiz story involving Sam Milby and Catriona Gray.
In an interview with MJ Felipe on ABS-CBN's On Cue on February 18, 2025, Sam confirmed his breakup with Catriona and denied that Moira had anything to do with their separation.
Sam also confirmed that he and Moira were no longer friends and that he had unfollowed her. He recalled how close they used to be, describing her as someone he treated like a younger sister and supported early in her career.
