“Do you think its sus when a friend invites your life partner to get a love couples tattoo with them without even filling you in or consulting you???” Andi’s question read.
As the online chatter intensified, Philmar also took to Instagram, adding another layer to the unfolding drama.
“Kon ono may galing ijo mga nabasahan koman tinood jaon. Waya nay tagoay kay mas malisod.” (For whatever you all read is true, then so be it. There’s no hiding because it will be more difficult.)
Netizens quickly sprang into action, searching for the individual allegedly involved in the third-party issue with the couple. The person in question was reportedly a Siargao-based photographer.
As of writing, Andi and Philmar have yet to release an official statement or clarify the issue behind their cryptic online exchanges.
Meanwhile, netizens jokingly noted that this is the second major relationship controversy of the year, following the amicable split of former couple Barbie Forteza and Jak Roberto.
