As the confirmation of Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla’s breakup circulated on November 30, a new conversation emerged urging fans of the popular KathNiel love team to extend an apology to talent manager and showbiz vlogger Ogie Diaz.
Ogie Diaz found himself in the spotlight after disclosing details from his source about purported covert encounters between Daniel Padilla and actress Andrea Brillantes. Social media discussions also suggested a potential link between the breakup of Kathryn and Daniel and the alleged involvement of Andrea.
In response to these revelations, some KathNiel fans expressed their discontent by initiating the trend “OGIE DIAZ FAKE NEWS PEDDLER.”
Despite this, a portion of the online community is now suggesting that an apology might be warranted from those fans who directed derogatory remarks towards Ogie.
I guess, Kathniel fans must apologize for Ogie Diaz for calling hin a fake news peddler.
Turns out he’s right, diba?

Apologize to Ogie Diaz, oi! Kung anu-ano itinawag niyo sa kanya Kathniel Fans.

A sentiment echoed by several individuals emphasizes that the fans’ reactions were a normal expression of their protective instincts towards their idols. They believe that if there were issues, these should have been addressed privately, and the situation might have been mitigated.
However, the public revelation in Ogie’s vlogs allegedly exacerbated the situation, leading to the worsening of the breakup.

What? Apologize to Ogie Diaz, Xian Gaza, Miss Scor & those dumb ass clout-chasers? HELL NO! First of all, it’s NOT their story to tell. After the KathNiel’s confirmation I hate those bitches even more. Imagine, they’re on the process of healing & ppl are making fun of them &–
