Chiu made an Instagram post on Wednesday morning, March 11, 2020, as she reflected on what happened in the morning of March 4, 2020 while she was on her way to her scheduled taping.

“So many people who helped me get through this. I am blessed to be surrounded by these kinds of people. They don’t have to do this ang dami na nilang pinoproblema but still they insisted to help me,” she said.
