Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla strongly insisted that they are extremely grateful to Angel Locsin for agreeing to make a comeback in La Luna Sangre to play one of the vital roles on the primetime series.
And since they are thankful for Angel Locsin's comeback, they stressed that there's no reason for their fans to bash Angel Locsin on social media since they really appreciate all the actress' efforts and support for them since day one.
“Nandiyan na ang suporta niya. Malaking bagay para sa amin, lalo na kapag alam mong continuation ng ginawa nila, kapag may blessing ng mga original cast, malaking bagay. Nabigay talaga ni Ate Angel 'yun,” Bernardo told ABS-CBN News.
“At saka hindi lang naman kung sino ito. Pinag-uusapan natin si Ms. Angel Locsin. Para pumayag siya na sumali pa rin dito sa show namin at mag-taping pa rin, which is alam natin na hindi talaga madali at maraming ginagawa si Ms. Angel, pero pumayag siya, talagang grabe. Very humbling 'yung feeling namin. Very blessed kami na mayroon kaming kasamang Ms. Angel Locsin na nandiyan hindi lang para sumuporta pero personal na minamahal kaming dalawa,” Padilla added.
Aside from that, the rumored couple also stated that the success of La Luna Sangre is based on the effort of all the casts of the show.

“Gusto natin mag-unite lahat kasi iisang show lang naman tayong lahat. Kami personally with Ms. Angel, with Mr. Richard Gutierrez, okay 'yung relationship namin. Bakit kailangan nila gumawa ng issue para masira 'yun? Kasi kami personally, okay. Sana maging aware 'yung mga tao. Tigilan na sana ang mga ganyan,” Bernardo said.
Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla who are campaigning against cyberbullying pleaded their fans to also step up and help them in their advocacy, instead of adding problems to the social media world.
“Hindi lang naman kasi sa amin magsisimula ito. Puwede kami magsalita. Pero anong magagawa naming dalawa ‘di ba? So kailangan natin ng suporta ng bawat isa, hindi lang sa amin kundi sa lahat ng totoong mga Kathniels na nandiyan na suportahan at protektahan kaming dalawa ni Kathryn. Hindi lang kaming dalawa kundi 'yung mga taong nagmamahal sa amin kagaya nila Ms. Angel Locsin na binibigay lahat para makatulong sa amin,” he said.
Instead of spreading hate, Bernardo advised them to just use social media for good. “Ngayon, sobrang boom talaga ang social media, lalo sa age namin. Merong positive and negative na effect. Sobrang powerful ng social media sa lahat. Naaapektuhan nun 'yung tao kung paano siya for that day. Kagaya noon, may nabasa akong exchange of tweets ng magkaibang fan groups. Bakit kailangang gamitin ang social media to make others feel bad or bakit kailangan magsiraan?” she said.
Padilla, later on, stressed that people should never forget the value of respect just because their identities are hidden behind their social media accounts.
“Hindi porke’t hindi nakikita ang mga mukha natin or hindi alam kung ilang tao na tayo, puwede na tayong magsalita ng kung ano-ano. 'Yung respeto, hindi dapat iyan nawawala. Respeto sa kapwa, mapaartista or mapa-normal na tao… Iyan ang pinakakailangan natin ngayon at pagmamahal sa kapwa natin,” he said.
Despite the unfortunate circumstances and controversies, Padilla and Bernardo are both looking forward to working and sharing scenes with Richard Gutierrez and Angel Locsin on the show.
“Iyan naman talaga ang hinihintay natin. Sila naman ang nagsimula nung show. Hindi pa kami nagkakasama-sama talaga. Nagkasama lang nung bata pa si Malia. Imagine na lang kung magkakasama na kaming apat, dahil sa totoong buhay naman, out of ‘La Luna,’ magkakaibigan kami ng sobra,” Padilla said.
The show still has a lot of things to offer and as a fan, you better stay tuned and watch out for the upcoming scenes!
