Kapuso actress Jillian Ward broke her silence as she had enough of the rumors surrounding her about her alleged relationship with politician and businessman Chavit Singson. In a recent interview with King of Talk Boy Abunda aired today, October 21, she denied all the allegations and rumors surrounding her and explained how she got everything she has through her own hard-earned money.
Jillian has been a subject of rumors on social media for several years and wants to clear her name as she believes that it’s too much already.

In the interview, the Kapuso actress asserted that this will be the only time she’ll be talking about this issue. She maintained that she has never met the politician in any capacity and challenged those spreading the rumors to release CCTV footage, if there is any.
“Tito Boy, ito na po yung first and last na I’ll speak about this pero never ko siya nakilala, never ko siya nameet, never ko siyang nakausap, never po kaming nagkita. So hindi ko talaga alam paano po nila nagawa-gawa ang lahat na ‘to kasi never ko talaga siyang nameet–– never ko siyang nakausap,” she shared.
When asked about her 18th birthday and the rumors circulating on social media about it, she assured fans that none of it was true as she doesn’t even know the veteran politician. She also shared that Chavit isn’t a godfather to one of her younger siblings which was also a rumor on social media.
“Hindi talaga totoo. I never met him, never po kaming nag kausap… Hindi ko nga alam kung kilala niya ako eh. Hindi talaga kami magkakilala,” she clarified.
“No. Never po namin siya na meet kaya nga sinasabi ko kung meron silang sinasabi nilang CCTV footage, ilabas nila. Wag lang AI,” she added.

In the same interview, she expressed her frustration over the fake news that’s been going around lately and shared that she has all the receipts for the things she purchased–– including the high-end vehicle that’s been the subject of controversy.
“Iniisip ko din yung 15 years of hard work ko, parang tinatapon lang nila lahat yun dahil sa fake news. Sobra yung disrespect sa comments,” she expressed.
“I can afford it with my own money. Gumagawa sila ng fake news na kesyo may nagbibigay sa akin. It’s all fake so sobrang nakakabastos siya kasi sobrang below the belt na yung mga ginagawa nilang kwento,” she continued.
“Lahat ng meron ako, I bought it with my own money,” she maintained.
In a previous interview, the veteran politician and businessman has denied the rumors linking him to the Kapuso actress. He maintained that the rumors are nothing more but mere gossip.
