During her Pinoy Big Brother stint, Wilbert Tolentino, one of Samantha Bernardo’s biggest supporters, demanded an apology from the beauty queen’s camp.
The talent manager-cum-vlogger Tolentino created a buzz online when he posted tirades on Twitter on May 30 pertaining to Pinoy Big Brother: Kumunity Season 10 3rd Big Placer Samantha Bernardo.
Tolentino believes that Bernardo never wins any competition because she is a ‘user’ and ‘ungrateful’.
Kaya d ka natatagumpay kht anong kemelatic sa chenilyn bumble bee mo kasi isa kang User! sayo ko ngayon ilipat yung tweet ko kahapon na dasuuuuurv…
kasi napaka ungrateful mong tao lalo na sa handler mong ahas!— WILBERT TOLENTINO (@sirwil75) May 30, 2022
As seen in the screenshot of Bernardo’s conversation with Tolentino, the beauty queen thanked him for the support and asked him to ignore the clamor of the fans.
Tolentino then expressed his disappointment to the beauty queen.
I never ask anything in return. I am a kind of person who doesn't need xpect gratitude to anyone. Public apology is enough 4 me from u & from ur handler. Otherwise I will spill the T what your Snake handler did to the entire PBB housemates. I don't deserve this kind of treatment pic.twitter.com/2rIasaELHg

Bernardo reiterated that she and her handler asked the fans to stop maligning Tolentino, reiterating for Tolentino to learn to ignore these critics because he is a public figure.
Despite this, Tolentino demanded an apology from Bernardo’s camp and warned to ‘spill the tea’ regarding what her handler allegedly did to the PBB housemates.
Pag pumapatol ako sa issue ibig sabihin indi ako busy at malamang natapakan nyo po buhok ko? and im sure ganun din naman po reaction nyo po kung natapakan po ego nyo po? di ba po?

Netizens saw how Bernardo humbled herself in her conversation with Tolentino, and with that, they expressed their dismay over the talent manager.
They believed that Bernardo should not be accountable for how her fans reacted.

Bakit parang instead of the fans, si sam po yung pinupuntirya mo. Wala naman siyang ginawa, yung ibang fans nya yung nag interpret negatively ng tweeet mo last time. Ngayon kay SamBer na napunta.

Tolentino’s rage was rooted in the SamBer and SamLy fans who accused him of flooding votes to evict during Bernardo’s bid for the top prize.
Ngayon natuto kayo mag behave! Kahapon kung maka Quote tweet ang SamBer at SamLy para akong Criminal ah at pag bibintangan nyo ako nag BBE kay Sam. takot ba kayo ilabas ko isa isa ang proeba? ngayon kayo pumiyesta at mag twitter party!

That same day, Bernardo also tweeted to ask everyone to stop the hate and spread love and kindness. She then pointed out that someone [already] won the show, so everyone should accept the results.
Hello outside world! Please let's STOP THE HATE AND SPREAD LOVE and KINDNESS ONLY! ♥️ I LOVE YOU ALL! 😍
May nanalo na po! Deserve ng lahat. ✨ Kalma na tayo. 🧘🏻♀️

Tolentino supported Bernardo’s PBB stint as a celebrity housemate together with fellow ‘Ka-Freshness’, Madam Inutz.
They both failed to secure the top 2 spots of their edition, however, since Alyssa Valdez backed out from the competition, Bernardo replaced her.
Eventually, Bernardo finished as the third big placer while fellow celebrity housemate Anji Salvacion was hailed as the PBB Kumunity Season 10 Big Winner.
Bernardo’s camp has yet to issue an apology as demanded by Tolentino.
