Actor Xian Lim has taken to Instagram to issue a public reminder about the importance of discernment in consuming and sharing information.
In his statement on November 11, Lim emphasized the prevalence of misleading headlines and misinformation, urging individuals to be mindful of what they believe and disseminate.
In his Instagram post, Lim requested that his family and friends be spared from what he deemed “insignificant issues” when compared to more pressing global, national, and personal concerns.
The actor clarified that his purpose is not to entertain but rather to express his thoughts and emotions through his craft.
“I am not here to explain and satisfy [one’s] curiosity. I am not here to ask for sympathy and spread hate. That is not who I am,” stated Lim emphatically.

Although the specific issue prompting Lim’s statement was not explicitly mentioned, recent speculation has revolved around his relationship with actress Kim Chiu.
Earlier rumors suggested a breakup between the longtime couple, but Chiu promptly refuted these claims, stating, “Okay naman po kami ni Xi. Mapanlinlang lang ang showbiz, pero maayos naman [kami]. Masaya naman po.”
