"Ay hindi basta ako hangga't kaya mahaba ang aking pangunawa para kay Liza."
“Ako naman, lagi kong inuunawa. Opinyon ni Liza ‘yon. Sino naman tayo para kontrahin ‘yon? E, ‘di mag-opinyon din tayo ‘di ba.”
He further explained why he would rather let the actress express herself than turn the matter into an argument.
“Pero para kontrahin mo ‘yong ng bata na, ‘Ay grabe ka naman!’ Wala, mag-aaway talaga kayo. Hayaan na natin. Gano’n naman talaga ka-vocal si Liza,”
Ogie's remarks reflected his willingness to respect Liza's opinions, even when they might not necessarily align with how other people view the movie.
Meanwhile, his co-host Mama Loi offered a different interpretation of the actress's statement. He suggested that Liza's criticism might have been directed more toward the character she portrayed than the entire production.
Mama Loi's observation raised the possibility that Liza's comments were specifically about how her character was written and portrayed in the story.
Released in 2017, My Ex and Whys featured Liza and Enrique as former lovers whose relationship eventually found its way toward reconciliation. The romantic comedy became one of the notable projects associated with the former on-screen love team.
Liza's recent remarks have since brought renewed attention to the film, while Ogie's response showed that he was willing to let his former talent speak openly about her experiences and opinions.
Liza Soberano, whose real name is Hope Elizabeth Soberano, is a Filipino-American actress born to Filipino father John Castillo Soberano and American mother Jacqulyn Elizabeth Hanley, and was raised by her paternal grandparents in California before moving to the Philippines at age 10. She rose to fame through Forevermore alongside Enrique Gil, forming the popular LizQuen loveteam, and later starred in hit films such as My Ex and Whys and Alone/Together before pursuing an acting career in Hollywood.
In another report, Ogie Diaz stood up for Gary Valenciano after the singer faced backlash over his interview with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. Diaz suggested that people who were not interested in the conversation could simply choose not to watch it. He described the criticism directed at Gary V. as “OA” and questioned whether the singer really needed to issue an apology. The controversy also sparked political exchanges between opposing groups, reviving accusations against individuals who had previously criticized the Marcos family.
Meanwhile, Liza Soberano opened up about her reservations regarding the storyline of My Ex and Whys and confirmed that she and former co-star Enrique Gil are no longer in contact. Although she still has a fondness for the film, the actress questioned how its narrative handled her character after she was cheated on. She pointed out that the story eventually put her character in a position where she was pressured to get back together with the person who had hurt her. Despite their lack of communication, Liza emphasized that she continues to love her former partner “as a human being.”
