Catriona Gray has finally addressed the viral buzz linking her romantically to Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto, clarifying that there’s no romantic angle—just a simple mutual follow on Instagram.
Speaking to the press during the MEGA Ball, the former Miss Universe 2018 was asked about the sudden online chatter shipping her with Mayor Vico. Her reaction? Amused and surprised.
“Nagulat din ako. Hindi ko nga in-expect na may meaning na ganyan. Follow-han lang. Mutuals lang,” she said, laughing off the assumptions.
The beauty queen even chuckled when told about their fan-made ship name, ViCat. “There’s nothing really much more than the mutual follow,” she added, making it clear there’s nothing brewing beyond social media.
As expected, netizens are now waiting for Mayor Vico’s side. The public official, who previously said that love life isn’t a priority for him at the moment, has not commented on the issue.
Interestingly, Mayor Vico has also been paired by fans with other celebrities like Atasha Muhlach and Gretchen Ho—both of which he has already clarified have no romantic basis. As for Catriona, she and actor Sam Milby confirmed their breakup earlier this year after being engaged in 2023.
